What is a Quadrilateral?

It is a shape with four straight sides.

We will try to extend that definition by investigating in greater depth.

Our Goal

Look at different types of quadrilaterals Identify similarities. Identify differences. Use ruler and/or protractor. Work as a team. Come up with the characteristics of four

different quadrilaterals to arrive at a definition for each.
