  2. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    In Euclidean geometry, a parallelogram is a simple (non- self-intersecting) quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. The opposite or facing sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure. The congruence of opposite sides and opposite angles is a direct consequence of the ...

  3. Square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square

    The square has Dih 4 symmetry, order 8. There are 2 dihedral subgroups: Dih 2, Dih 1, and 3 cyclic subgroups: Z 4, Z 2, and Z 1. A square is a special case of many lower symmetry quadrilaterals: A rectangle with two adjacent equal sides; A quadrilateral with four equal sides and four right angles; A parallelogram with one right angle and two ...

  4. Quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrilateral

    Informally: "a box or oblong" (including a square). Square (regular quadrilateral): all four sides are of equal length (equilateral), and all four angles are right angles. An equivalent condition is that opposite sides are parallel (a square is a parallelogram), and that the diagonals perpendicularly bisect each other and are of equal length.

  5. Parallelogon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogon

    In geometry, a parallelogon is a polygon with parallel opposite sides (hence the name) that can tile a plane by translation (rotation is not permitted). [1][2] Parallelogons have an even number of sides and opposite sides that are equal in length. A less obvious corollary is that parallelogons can only have either four or six sides; [1 ...

  6. Orthodiagonal quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodiagonal_quadrilateral

    Orthodiagonal quadrilateral. Special quadrilateral whose diagonals intersect at right angles. An orthodiagonal quadrilateral (yellow). According to the characterization of these quadrilaterals, the two red squares on two opposite sides of the quadrilateral have the same total area as the two blue squares on the other pair of opposite sides. In ...

  7. Parallelogram law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram_law

    In mathematics, the simplest form of the parallelogram law (also called the parallelogram identity) belongs to elementary geometry. It states that the sum of the squares of the lengths of the four sides of a parallelogram equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two diagonals. We use these notations for the sides: AB, BC, CD, DA.

  8. Rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangle

    In Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is a rectilinear convex polygon or a quadrilateral with four right angles. It can also be defined as: an equiangular quadrilateral, since equiangular means that all of its angles are equal (360°/4 = 90°); or a parallelogram containing a right angle. A rectangle with four sides of equal length is a square.
