You cannot make four triangles our of a quadrilateral by ONE line through it. One line can give you at most two triangles.
Two lines, each running from one vertex of the quadrilateral to the opposite vertex, will give 4 triangles.

How do you make a quadrilateral out of four equilateral triangles?
Put the triangles in a line alternately pointing up and down.
How do you draw a quadrilateral so when you draw a straight line you get 4 triangles?
A straight line can intersect the side of a convex quadrilateral in at most two points and so divided it into at most two segments. A concave quadrilateral (an arrowhed or chevron) can be divided into three if the line touches the reflex vertex and cuts off the two "barbs" of the arrowhead. But 4 triangles is not possible.
Do the diagonals of a quadrilateral kite separate the kite into four congruent triangles?
Not necessarly. If the sum of two of the sides congruent to each other are greater than that of the sides opposite them, then no. If however the kite forms a rombus ot square, the diagnoles will form four congruent triangles with the base of both being the line of symmetry.
How can you tell whether four line segments will form a quadrilateral?
Four line segments can always form a quadrilateral, as long as none of them is longer than the sum of the lengths of the other three,
What percent of the trapezoid is a triangle?
50% because a trapezoid is made from 2 triangles

Why is it that all four sided figures be made from two triangles?
You can always find opposite corners that can be connected with a line which divides the quadrilateral into two trilaterals.
Is a quadrilateral a line symmetry?
A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides.
What are the properties of quadrilateral?
A quadrilateral is any plane figure bounded by four straight lines. If a line is drawn from one corner to the opposite corner of a quadrilateral then it is divides the quadrilateral into two triangles. As the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180° then the sum of the internal angles of a quadrilateral total 360°. Special forms of a quadrilateral are :- Parallelogram, Rhombus. Rectangle, Square, Trapezoid / Trapezium and Kite.
How can you prove that the sum of the four interior angles in all quadrilaterals equal 360 degrees?
If you accept that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, then picture this. A quadrilateral shape is two triangles. If you draw a line between one pair of opposite corners in quadrilateral shape, you have two triangles that share a common side. The sum of the angles in the quadrilateral must equal the sum of the angles in the two triangles. 2 x 180 = 360

How many triangles are there in a triangle with 8 lines inside it?
Are you testing us? *gets paper* 9 if you dont count triangles with a line going through it 17 if you count triangles with more than one line going through it e.g all possible triangles visible
