Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals MG2.3 Draw quadrilaterals and triangles from given information about them (e.g., a quadrilateral having equal sides but no right angles, a right isosceles triangle.) California Standards

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Some quadrilaterals have properties that classify them as special quadrilaterals. Parallelogram Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. You can also classify a quadrilateral as a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite sides or both pairs of opposite angles are congruent.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals A rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles. A rhombus is a parallelogram with four congruent sides.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals A square is a parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles. A trapezoid has exactly one pair of opposite sides that are parallel.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Quadrilaterals can have more than one name because the special quadrilaterals sometimes share properties.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Give all the names that apply to the quadrilateral. Then give the name that best describes it. A. Additional Example 1: Classifying Quadrilaterals This figure has two pairs of parallel sides, so it is a parallelogram. It has four congruent sides, so it is also a rhombus. Rhombus best describes this quadrilateral.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Additional Example 1: Identifying Types of Quadrilaterals The figure has exactly one pair of opposite sides that is parallel, so it is a trapezoid. Trapezoid best describes this quadrilateral. Give all the names that apply to the quadrilateral. Then give the name that best describes it. B.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Additional Example 1: Identifying Types of Quadrilaterals The figure has two pairs of parallel sides, so it is a parallelogram. It has four right angles, so it is also a rectangle. Give all the names that apply to the quadrilateral. Then give the name that best describes it. C. Rectangle best describes this quadrilateral.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Additional Example 1: Identifying Types of Quadrilaterals The figure has two pairs of parallel sides and both pairs of opposite angles are congruent, so it is a parallelogram. Give all the names that apply to the quadrilateral. Then give the name that best describes it. D. Parallelogram best describes this quadrilateral.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Draw each figure. If it is not possible to draw explain why. Additional Example 2: Drawing Quadrilaterals A. a rectangle that is not a rhombus. The figure has opposite sides that are parallel but does not have four congruent sides.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Draw each figure. If it is not possible to draw explain why. Additional Example 2: Drawing Quadrilaterals B. a square that is not a rhombus. Not possible; all squares are rhombi because they have 4 congruent sides.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Check It Out! Example 1 This figure has two pairs of parallel sides, so it is called a parallelogram. It has four right angles, so it is also a rectangle. Give all the names that apply to the quadrilateral. Then give the name that best describes it. A. Rectangle best describes this quadrilateral.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Draw each figure. If it is not possible to draw explain why. Check It Out! Example 2 A. a trapezoid that is a rectangle. Not possible; A rectangle has four right angles and a trapezoid does not.

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Lesson Quiz 1. Give all the names that apply to the quadrilateral. Then give the name that best describes it. rhombus, quadrilateral, parallelogram; rhombus Draw each figure. If it is not possible to draw, explain why. 2. a quadrilateral with 4 right angles and 4 congruent sides square 3. a quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides trapezoid

Holt CA Course Classifying Quadrilaterals Check It Out! Example 1 The figure has two pairs of parallel sides, so it is a parallelogram. It has four congruent sides, so it is also a rhombus. It does not have four right angles, so it is not a square or rectangle. Give all the names that apply to the quadrilateral. Then give the name that best describes it. B. Rhombus best describes this quadrilateral.
