Correct answer choice is:


A. In a parallelogram, the diagonals are congruent.


Step-by-step explanation:


Opposite angels of a parallelogram are congruent and the Consecutive angles are always supplementary, which means the consecutive angles are added up to 180°. If one angle of parallelogram is a square angle, then all angles are 90°. A rectangle is also a sort of parallelogram. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
