Click or touch the word(s) you want to choose

A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides. One of the most recognizable types of quadrilateral is the rectangle, which has four right angles and opposite sides that are equal in length. When all four sides of a rectangle are equal, it becomes a square. A rhombus is a parallelogram with all four sides equal but without the requirement of right angles. A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides.
