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.
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 ...
Any square can be inscribed in a circle whose center is the center of the square. If the common length of its four sides is equal to a {\displaystyle a} then the length of the diagonal is equal to a 2 {\displaystyle a{\sqrt {2}}} according to the Pythagorean theorem , and Ptolemy's relation obviously holds.
In Euclidean geometry, Brahmagupta's formula, named after the 7th century Indian mathematician, is used to find the area of any convex cyclic quadrilateral (one that can be inscribed in a circle) given the lengths of the sides.

Equivalently, it is a quadrilateral whose four sides can be grouped into two pairs of adjacent equal-length sides. [ 1 ] [ 7 ] A kite can be constructed from the centers and crossing points of any two intersecting circles . [ 8 ]

The rhombus has a square as a special case, and is a special case of a kite and parallelogram. In plane Euclidean geometry, a rhombus (pl.: rhombi or rhombuses) is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length. Another name is equilateral quadrilateral, since equilateral means
