An convex n-gon has n(n-3)/2 diagonals.
So a square is a 4-gon and it has 4(1)/2=2 diagonals.
A pentagon has 5(2)/2=5 diagonals.
quadrilaterals always have 2 diagonals.
Here is a link with some pics to help you see the various kinds they have. That is to say, are they perpendicular, to they bisect each other?

A parallelogram has two diagonals the same as all 4 sided quadrilaterals
There are lot of shapes in geometry. It is called polygons. Triangle, trapezoid, circle, parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, diagonal, square etc. Parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, diagonal, square, and trapezoid are quadrilaterals.
Not always. They would only intersect when the internal angles are each less than 180 degrees - which not all quadrilaterals have.
2 diagonals bisect each other only in the case of square , parallelogram, rhombus , rectangle and isosceles trapezium ;not in ordinary quadrilaterals.
The sum of all (interior) angles must equal 360 degrees
A square
A parallelogram has two diagonals the same as all 4 sided quadrilaterals
A parallelogram a rectangle a square and a rhombus
In general, NO.In general, NO.In general, NO.In general, NO.
No, in general, they do not.
In general, no.
All quadrilaterals have intersecting diagonals.Some symmetric quadrilaterals have perpendicularly bisecting diagonals.Equilateral parallelogramsof which the square is a special case...and the kite where two pairs of adjacent sides are the same length has one diagonal perpendicularly bisected by the other
One AnswerFor quadrilaterals (parallelogram, rectangle, rhombus, trapezoid) its called a diagonal Another:For any polygon or polyhedron, it is a diagonal.

quadrilaterals
2 diagonal lines from corner to corner to create 4 equal triangles
Quadrilaterals are four sided, two-dimensional shapes. Each side has to be a straight line, even if it looks diagonal in accordance to the other sides. Three examples include squares, rectangles, and parallelograms.
