In Summary

Quadrilaterals are geometric shapes with four sides and four angles. They are a common subject in geometry and are often studied in middle and high school math classes. Usually after angles and triangles are explored completely.

A fun fact about properties of quadrilaterals is that the word “quadrilateral” comes from the Latin words “quadri,” meaning four, and “latus,” meaning side.
