26 Rhombus. Since <strong>the</strong> triangles are congruent,<br />

<strong>the</strong> opposite angles that are originally vertex<br />

angles are congruent. By <strong>the</strong> addition postulate,<br />

<strong>the</strong> opposite angles <strong>for</strong>med by joining<br />

<strong>the</strong> triangles at <strong>the</strong>ir bases are congruent.<br />

Thus <strong>the</strong> quadrilateral is a parallelogram.<br />

All sides are congruent. The parallelogram is<br />

a rhombus.<br />
