What is a Quadrilateral Figure?
Quadrilateral just means "four sides"
(quad means four, lateral means side).
Any four-sided shape is a Quadrilateral.
But the sides have to be straight, and it has to be 2-dimensional.

Property of Quadrilateral Shape

Property of Quadrilateral Shape
•Four sides (edges)•Four vertices (corners)•The interior angles add up to 360 degrees: Try drawing a quadrilateral, and measure the angles. They should add to 360°

Types of Quadrilaterals
![Page 6: Introduction of Quadrilaterals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052508/559672501a28ab52618b4676/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Types of Quadrilaterals
There are special types of quadrilateral:
Some types are also included in the definition of other types! For example a square, rhombus and rectangle are also parallelograms.
![Page 7: Introduction of Quadrilaterals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052508/559672501a28ab52618b4676/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

The Rectangle
A rectangle is a four-sided shape where every angle is a right angle (90°).
Also opposite sides are parallel and of equal length.

The RhombusA rhombus is a four-sided shape where all sides have equal length.
Also opposite sides are parallel a nd opposite angles are equal.
Another interesting thing is that the diagonals (dashed lines in second figure) meet in the middle at a right angle. In other words they "bisect" (cut in half) each other at right angles.
A rhombus is sometimes called a rhomb or a diamond.
![Page 10: Introduction of Quadrilaterals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052508/559672501a28ab52618b4676/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Square
A square has equal sides and every angle is a right angle (90°)
Also opposite sides are parallel.
A square also fits the definition of a rectangle (all angles are 90°), and a rhombus (all sides are equal length).

The ParallelogramA parallelogram has opposite sides parallel and equal in length.
Also opposite angles are equal (angles "a" are the same, and angles "b" are the same).
NOTE: Squares, Rectangles and Rhombuses are all Parallelograms!
Example: A parallelogram with:•all sides equal and•angles "a" and "b" as right angles
Is a square!

The Trapeziod ( UK: Trapezium )
A trapezoid (called a trapezium in the UK) has a pair of opposite sides parallel.
It is called an Isosceles trapezoid if the sides that aren't parallel are equal in length and both angles coming from a parallel side are equal, as shown.
And a trapezium (UK: trapezoid) is a quadrilateral with NO parallel sides:
Trapezoid Isosceles Trapezoid

The KiteIt has two pairs of sides. Each pair is made up of adjacent sides that are equal in length. The angles are equal where the pairs meet. Diagonals (dashed lines) meet at a right angle, and one of the diagonal bisects (cuts equally in half) the other.

Irregular Quadrilaterals
![Page 15: Introduction of Quadrilaterals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052508/559672501a28ab52618b4676/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Irregular Quadrilaterals
The only regular quadrilateral is a square. So all other quadrilaterals are irregular.

The ‘Family Tree’ Chart
![Page 17: Introduction of Quadrilaterals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052508/559672501a28ab52618b4676/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The ‘Family Tree’ ChartQuadrilateral definitions are inclusive.
Example: a square is also a rectangle.
So we include a square in the definition of a rectangle.

The ‘Family Tree’ Chart (Cont.)
Using the chart below you can answer such questions as:
• Is a Square a type of Rectangle? (Yes)• Is a Rectangle a type of Kite? (No)

Complex Quadrilaterals

Complex Quadrilaterals
when two sides cross over, you call it a "Complex" or "Self-Intersecting" quadrilateral like these:
They still have 4 sides, but two sides cross over.

Polygon

Polygon
A quadrilateral is a polygon. In fact it is a 4-sided
polygon, just like a triangle is a 3-sided polygon, a
pentagon is a 5-sided polygon, and so on.

Other Names
![Page 24: Introduction of Quadrilaterals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052508/559672501a28ab52618b4676/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Other Names
A quadrilateral can sometimes be called: •a Quadrangle ("fo ur a ng le s "), so it sounds like "triangle"
•a Tetragon ("fo ur and p o lyg o n"), so it sounds like "pentagon", "hexagon", etc.
