A quadrilateral is 4 sided shape. There are 6 main quadrilaterals: *Trapezium *Parallelogram *Rhombus *Kite *Square (type of rectangle) *Oblong (type of rectangle) Therefore, an oblong is one of the quadrilaterals. More specifically, an oblong is the traditional 'rectangle' in which the two sets of parallel lines are unequal. The term 'rectangle' refers to a quadrilateral with 4 right angles, hence a square is one too, but one with equal sides.
