Why is a square not a quadrangle?
It is a quadrangle. However, not all quadrangles are squares, because to be a square all the sides and all the angles have to be equal. To be a quadrangle the figure simply has to have four sides (and therefore four angles), which may all be different.
Is there a difference between quadrangle and quadrilateral?
A quadrilateral is a four-sided, two-dimensional geometric figure. A Quadrangle is a rectangular-shaped open area surrounded by buildings. This is often found on a college campus.
Draw a quadrangle that has 2 pairs of parallel sides and two right angles?
The figure, as described, is impossible. If a quadrangle has 2 pairs of parallel sides then the number of right angles can be 0 or 4, but not 2.
What is another word for a quadrangle?
I would say that another word for quadrangle would be quadrilateral. Literally, quadrangle means four angles, just as triangle means three angles. So if you were classifying plane figures by sides and angles, that might work. A convex figure with four sides would have four angles.
What is a quadrangle?
A quadrangle is another word for quadrilateral, a four sided figure, like squares or rectangles. It is any plane figure containing 4 straight sides and 4 angles. It can also refer to a generally square area of land that is at the center of a group of buildings. The word is often used to describe areas in college campuses.
