1 Quadrilaterals Kimberly A. Yuretich

2 Objectives To identify any quadrilateral, by name, as specifically as you can, based on its characteristics

3 Quadrilateral a quadrilateral is a polygon with 4 sides.

4 Specific Quadrilaterals
There are several specific types of quadrilaterals. They are classified based on their sides or angles.

5

6 A quadrilateral simply has 4 sides – no other special requirements.

7 Examples of Quadrilaterals

8 A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides.

9 Parallelogram Two pairs of parallel sides
opposite sides are actually congruent.

10 A rhombus is a parallelogram that has four congruent sides.

11 Rhombus Still has two pairs of parallel sides; with opposite sides congruent. 4 in. 4 in. 4 in. 4 in.

12 A rectangle has four right angles.

13 Rectangle Still has two pairs of parallel sides; with opposite sides congruent. Has four right angles

14 A square is a specific case of both a rhombus AND a rectangle, having four right angles and 4 congruent sides.

15 Square Still has two pairs of parallel sides. Has four congruent sides
Has four right angles

16 A trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides.

17 An isosceles trapezoid is a trapeziod with the non-parallel sides congruent.

18 (Each of these examples shown has top and bottom sides parallel.)
Trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides. trapezoids Isosceles trapezoid (Each of these examples shown has top and bottom sides parallel.)

19 An kite is a quadrilateral with NO parallel sides but 2 pairs of adjacent congruent sides.
