I don't have the coordinates from your diagram, but the general completions are:
slope of MN = slope of OP
slope of NO = slope of PM
The slopes of any pair of opposite sides are equal.
That being the case, those sides are parallel.
Therefore, the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Note: Showing both pairs of opposite sides are parallel proves a parallelogram, not automatically a rectangle. To conclude MNOP is a rectangle you also need to show one angle is a right angle (for example slope(MN) · slope(NO) = −1). If you give the coordinates of M, N, O, P I can compute the slopes and finish the proof.
