Types of Quadrilaterals
- Parallelogram: a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.
- Rectangle: a parallelogram with four right angles.
- Square: a parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles.
- Rhombus: a parallelogram with four equal sides, but no right angles.
- Trapezoid: a quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides.
- Kite: a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides of equal length.
- General Quadrilateral: a quadrilateral with no parallel sides.
Condition for a Quadrilateral to be a Parallelogram
- If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then it is a parallelogram.
