The diagonals in a quadrilateral are the (usually imaginary) straight lines that go through the inside of the shape from one vertex to another. For example, say you have a square (a quadrilateral) consisting of points A, B, C, and D. They are all connected on edges going A to B, B to C, C to D, and D to A. Envisioning this shape in your mind, you would likely imagine the inside of the square being blank. There would be two diagonals in a shape like this (as well as in every quadrilateral) being the lines going from A, through the center of the square, to C, and the other being the line going from B, through the center, to D.
