### Problem 13
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall parallelogram properties
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite sides are congruent.
## Step2: Analyze the figure
The figure has one pair of opposite sides marked with one tick (congruent) and another pair of opposite sides marked with two ticks (congruent). So both pairs of opposite sides are congruent.
# Answer: Yes

### Problem 14
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall parallelogram properties
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if a pair of opposite sides are both congruent and parallel. The marks (ticks and arrows) indicate one pair of opposite sides are congruent and parallel.
## Step2: Apply the property
Since one pair of opposite sides are congruent and parallel, the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
# Answer: Yes

### Problem 15
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall parallelogram properties
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if one pair of opposite sides are congruent and parallel (or both pairs of opposite sides are congruent). Here, one pair of opposite sides is marked as congruent. But we need to check if that implies it's a parallelogram. Wait, actually, if one pair of opposite sides are congruent and parallel, it's a parallelogram. But in this case, the marks show one pair of opposite sides congruent. Wait, no—wait, the figure: if only one pair of opposite sides is marked congruent, but in a quadrilateral, if one pair of opposite sides are congruent and parallel, it's a parallelogram. But here, maybe the marks are for congruent, but we assume that if one pair is congruent and parallel (but the arrows? Wait, no, in problem 14 there were arrows, here just ticks. Wait, no—wait, the problem 15: the figure has one pair of opposite sides with one tick each, so congruent. But for a parallelogram, we need either both pairs of opposite sides congruent, or one pair congruent and parallel. If we assume that the sides with ticks are congruent and parallel (since it's a quadrilateral, maybe a parallelogram). Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, no—actually, in problem 15, the figure is a quadrilateral with one pair of opposite sides marked congruent. But that's not enough. Wait, no—wait, maybe the figure is a parallelogram because if one pair of opposite sides are congruent and parallel, but here maybe the sides are both congruent and parallel. Wait, maybe the answer is yes. Wait, let's recheck. The property: If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are both congruent and parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. If the marks are for congruent, and we can infer parallel (since it's a quadrilateral, maybe), then yes. So I think the answer is yes.
## Step1: Identify the marks
The figure has one pair of opposite sides with congruency marks (one tick each), so they are congruent.
## Step2: Apply parallelogram property
Assuming the congruent sides are also parallel (since it's a quadrilateral, likely a parallelogram), so the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
# Answer: Yes

### Problem 16
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall parallelogram properties
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if the diagonals bisect each other (i.e., the diagonals cut each other into two congruent segments). In the figure, the diagonals have marks: one diagonal has two segments with one tick each, and the other diagonal has two segments with one tick each? Wait, no—wait, the diagonals: one diagonal has two segments with two ticks? No, looking at the figure, the diagonals intersect, and the segments of the diagonals: one diagonal has segments with one tick and two ticks? Wait, no, maybe the diagonals bisect each other. Wait, the marks: if the diagonals bisect each other (i.e., each diagonal is split into two equal parts), then it's a parallelogram. In the figure, the diagonals have marks: one diagonal has a segment with two ticks and another with one tick? No, maybe I missee. Wait, the problem 16: the diagonals intersect, and the segments: one diagonal has a segment with two ticks and another with one tick? No, maybe the marks are that one diagonal's segments are congruent (one tick each) and the other diagonal's segments are congruent (one tick each)? Wait, no, the figure shows that the diagonals intersect, and one diagonal has a segment with two ticks and another with one tick, and the other diagonal has a segment with one tick and two ticks? No, maybe the diagonals do not bisect each other. Wait, let's recall: the property is that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then it's a parallelogram. So if the diagonals are not bisecting each other (i.e., the segments are not congruent), then it's not a parallelogram. In the figure, the diagonals have different marks: one diagonal has a segment with two ticks and another with one tick, and the other diagonal has a segment with one tick and two ticks? Wait, no, maybe the marks are that one diagonal's segments are congruent (one tick each) and the other diagonal's segments are congruent (one tick each)? No, I think I made a mistake. Wait, the problem 16: the diagonals intersect, and the segments: one diagonal has a segment with two ticks and another with one tick, and the other diagonal has a segment with one tick and two ticks. So the diagonals are not bisecting each other (since the segments are not equal). Therefore, the quadrilateral is not a parallelogram.
## Step1: Check diagonal bisecting
For a parallelogram, diagonals bisect each other (each diagonal is split into two equal parts).
## Step2: Analyze the figure
The diagonals have different segment marks (one diagonal has segments with two ticks and one tick, the other with one tick and two ticks), so they do not bisect each other. Thus, not a parallelogram.
# Answer: No

### Problem 17
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall parallelogram properties
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if the diagonals bisect each other (i.e., each diagonal is split into two congruent segments).
## Step2: Analyze the figure
The diagonals intersect, and each diagonal is split into two segments with congruency marks (one diagonal has segments with two ticks and one tick? No, wait, the figure has diagonals with segments marked: one diagonal has two segments with two ticks each? No, looking at the figure, the diagonals intersect, and each diagonal is divided into two congruent segments (the marks: one diagonal has segments with two ticks and two ticks? Wait, no, the figure for 17: the diagonals have marks: one diagonal has a segment with two ticks and another with two ticks? No, maybe the diagonals bisect each other. Wait, the marks: if each diagonal is split into two equal parts (congruent segments), then the diagonals bisect each other, so it's a parallelogram. In the figure, the diagonals have marks indicating that each diagonal is split into two congruent segments (e.g., one diagonal has segments with two ticks and two ticks, the other with one tick and one tick? Wait, no, the figure shows that the diagonals intersect, and the segments of each diagonal are congruent (e.g., one diagonal has a segment with two ticks and another with two ticks, and the other diagonal has a segment with one tick and one tick). Wait, no, maybe the diagonals bisect each other. So if diagonals bisect each other, then it's a parallelogram.
## Step1: Check diagonal bisecting
Diagonals bisect each other (each diagonal's segments are congruent).
## Step2: Apply the property
Since diagonals bisect each other, the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
# Answer: Yes

### Problem 18
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall parallelogram properties
In a parallelogram, consecutive angles are supplementary (sum to $180^\circ$). Here, the angles are $120^\circ$ and $60^\circ$, and $120 + 60 = 180^\circ$. Also, in a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal, and consecutive angles are supplementary. If we assume that the other two angles are also $120^\circ$ and $60^\circ$ (since it's a quadrilateral), then consecutive angles are supplementary, so it's a parallelogram.
## Step2: Check angle sum
Consecutive angles $120^\circ$ and $60^\circ$ sum to $180^\circ$, so they are supplementary. In a quadrilateral, if consecutive angles are supplementary, then the sides are parallel (by the converse of the same - side interior angles theorem). So if both pairs of consecutive angles are supplementary, then both pairs of opposite sides are parallel, making it a parallelogram.
