A quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon (closed shape made with line segments). Quadrilaterals have four angles (vertices) and come in many different shapes, depending on the length of their sides and the kinds of angles they have.
The five most common quadrilaterals are the rectangle, square, parallelogram, rhombus, and trapezoid.
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides congruent (same length) and parallel. It has four right (90º) angles.
A square has ALL four sides that are congruent, and two pairs of parallel sides. It also has four right angles.
A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides. They form two acute and two obtuse angles.
A rhombus has two pairs of parallel sides, but all sides are congruent. They also form two acute and two obtuse angles.
Finally, a trapezoid, has only one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are NOT congruent. A trapezoid can be formed by two acute and two obtuse angles, or by two right angles, one acute, and one obtuse angle.

What is quadrillateral that is not a parallelogram?
an irregular rectangle
How many sides does a quadrillateral have?
It Has 13 Sides
Are the diagonals of a parallelogram the same length?
no, they r completely the same thing because the trajectary of a digonals parallelogram was the kite quadrillateral motion of the same figure shape or polygon..... -answered by a Mrs. Fynchox....(f-inch-ox) :D david pierce Handon middle school :D AKA: handon middle school.
What is a difference between a triangle and a trapazoid?
the difference between a triangle and a trapozoid is that a triangle has 3 sides and corners and a trapozid has 4 sides and corners.Also a triangle is a triangle and a trapoizd is a quadrillateral.
