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 />
