Quadrilaterals. Quadrilateral just means "four sides". (quad means four, lateral means side). A Quadrilateral has four-sides, it is 2-dimensional (a flat shape), closed (the lines join up), and has straight sides.
Polygons are geometric figures of the 2D plane made up of a series of closed segments. The number of segments (called sides or edges) is equal to the number of vertices (or corners) used to define the geometric shape of the polygon.
Each geometric shape has a unique name (ex. rectangle, square, oval, etc) and geometrical shapes can be easily identified by looking at an image and seeing the shape’s characteristics, such as number of sides, angles, curves, or points.
Individual polygons are named (and sometimes classified) according to the number of sides, combining a Greek-derived numerical prefix with the suffix -gon, e.g. pentagon, dodecagon. The triangle, quadrilateral and nonagon are exceptions, although the regular forms trigon, tetragon, and enneagon are sometimes encountered as well.
18 Ιουλ 2023 · A quadrilateral is a polygon with 4 edges, corners, and interior angles. The main shapes are square, rectangle, rhombus, kite, parallelogram, and trapezoid. In geometry, a quadrilateral is a two-dimensional closed shape or polygon that has four straight sides, four corners or vertices, and four interior angles.
28 Νοε 2020 · Any closed shape with straight edges, such as a triangle or rectangle, is a polygon. Polygons with four sides, such as rectangles and squares, are called quadrilaterals. The prefix of this word “quad” means four, therefore, a quadrilateral is a polygon that has four sides.
8 Ιουν 2024 · A quadrilateral is a flat geometric shape having four straight sides and four vertices. It is a type of polygon. The word ‘quadrilateral’ is derived from the Latin words ‘quadri’, meaning ‘four’, and ‘latus’, meaning ‘side’.
