Counterexample:
Since a square fulfills the definition of a rectangle, we know that a square is in fact a rectangle. The given statement is true.
This means the given statement is false.
Since a rhombus fulfills the definition of a parallelogram, we know that all rhombi are also parallelograms and the given statement is true.
Since a square fulfills the definition of a rhombus, we know that all squares are also rhombi. This means the given statement is true.
Using the SSS (Side-Side-Side) Congruence Theorem, we see that the diagonal creates two congruent triangles. The only way the angles are bisected is if the triangles are isosceles, which means the triangle's base angles are the same.
Therefore, it is not true that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect the angles. It is only true for all rhombi, so the given statement is false.
