  • They all have four sides.
  • The sides join to form a closed shape.
  • The interior angles add up to 360°.
  • The four corners lie flat on the same plane.

Sum of the Angles in a Quadrilateral

  • The sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is 360°.
  • A+B+C+D=360°

Special Quadrilaterals

Each special quadrilateral has unique properties that separate it from the other quadrilaterals.

  • kite
  • parallelogram
  • rectangle
  • rhombus
