Proof Table
# Claim Reason
1 WXYZ is a parallelogram if WXYZ is a rhombus, then WXYZ is a parallelogram
2 WXYZ is a rectangle if WXYZ is a parallelogram and ∠WXY is a right angle, then WXYZ is a rectangle
3 distance WX = distance XY if WXYZ is a rhombus, then distance WX = distance XY
4 WXYZ is a square if WXYZ is a rectangle and distance WX = distance XY, then WXYZ is a square
