Classifying Quadrilaterals Cheat Sheet
- Quadrilateral fundamentals - Quadrilaterals rock! They're any four‑sided polygons with four angles, and mastering this basic definition is your first step toward shape superpowers. Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
- Parallelogram properties - Picture a parallelogram as a special quadrilateral where opposite sides are both parallel and equal in length, and opposite angles match like twins. Spotting these clues helps you differentiate them from other four‑sided shapes in a flash. Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
- Rectangle recognition - Rectangles are just parallelograms that wear right angles proudly. Every angle measures 90°, so they inherit parallel sides and equal opposite angles from their parallelogram roots. Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
- Rhombus identification - Rhombuses have all sides of equal length but might surprise you with angles that aren't 90°. If every side is congruent, you've struck rhombus gold! Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
- Square superstars - Squares are the VIPs of quadrilaterals: equal sides and perfect right angles. They qualify as both rectangles and rhombuses at the same time - talk about shape multitasking! Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
- Trapezoid traits - Trapezoids (or trapeziums) stand out by having at least one pair of parallel sides. That solo duo of parallel lines means they march to the beat of their own geometric drum. Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
- Kite characteristics - Kites boast two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are equal, and often one pair of matching opposite angles. They look just like the flying toys you've seen, but with a math twist! Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
- Angle sum rule - Add up the interior angles of any quadrilateral and you'll always land on 360°. This golden rule unlocks tons of angle‑chasing puzzles and proofs. Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS Classifying Quadrilaterals - SAS
