Quadrilaterals
There are many different types of
quadrilaterals. We identify
quadrilaterals using their sides and
angles.

Lets Review

All polygons are made up of line segments


and angles. The line segments that create
quadrilaterals will be parallel,
perpendicular, OR intersecting.
The adjacent sides of
this quadrilateral
are perpendicular.

The opposite sides


of this quadrilateral
are parallel.

The adjacent sides of


this quadrilateral
are intersecting.

Squares

A square is a quadrilateral that has four


equal sides and four right angles.
This square has four right angles
and all four sides are congruent
(the same length).

Rectangles

A rectangle is a quadrilateral that has two


pairs of parallel sides that are equal and
four right angles.

This rectangle has four right angles and two pairs of


parallel sides that are congruent.

Rhombuses

A rhombus is a quadrilateral that has four


equal sides and two pairs of parallel sides.
This rhombus has four
congruent sides and two
pairs of parallel sides.

Trapezoids

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral that has one


pair of parallel sides.
This trapezoid has one pair
of parallel sides.

parallelograms

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral that has


two pair of parallel sides.

This parallelogram has two pairs of parallel


sides.
