Equilateral
In geometry, an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal. In the familiar Euclidean geometry, an equilateral triangle is also equiangular; that is, all three internal angles are also congruent to each other and are each 60°. It is also a regular polygon, so it is also referred to as a regular triangle.

Quadrilateral
In Euclidean plane geometry, a quadrilateral is a polygon with four edges (sides) and four vertices (corners). Sometimes, the term quadrangle is used, by analogy with triangle, and sometimes tetragon for consistency with pentagon (5-sided) and hexagon (6-sided), or 4-gon for consistency with k-gons for arbitrary values of k.

What a Square is:
A square is a quadrilateral, which refers it to having 4 equal sides and 4 equal angles(90-degree angles also known as 4 90-degree angles).
What a Rectangle is:
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with 4 right angles(4 90-degree angles). It can also be known as an equiangular quadrilateral because all the angles are equal. It can also be known as an oblong, a non-square rectangle.
What a Parallelogram is:
A parallelogram is a simple quadrilateral with 2 pairs of parallel sides. The opposite/facing sides of a parallelogram are equal in length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal as well.
What a Trapezoid is:
On a trapezoid, the parallel sides are known as the legs and the other 2 sides are known as the legs. A trapezoid is similar to a trapezium but it has different angles and the parallel sides are uneven in size. There are many types of a trapezoid, one for example is an isosceles trapezoid(having 2 equal sides).
What a Kite is:
A kite shape is a geometric shape with 2 pairs of equal sides, it is also a quadrilateral shape. The inside of a kite shape can contain a perfectly measured circle that just brushes the sides. It can be either a concave or convex shape aswell.
Do you know the difference between a trapezium and a trapezoid?
Hi baylie I like how you have given the link for where you have gotten this information from but i think you could add a bit more for the shapes
ReplyDeleteI think that you are using a few too many technical terms without explaining what they are and I think you should include a few more lines of info but other wise, not bad
ReplyDeleteHello your work is really good and on point, But i think you could add more and explain more of what you have wrote.
ReplyDeletei think you should have put the defintiions into your own words or just made the definitions more simples but good effort.
ReplyDeletethis is really good information keep up the good work
