A quadrilateral is a generic term used to describe a four sided polygon. In other words, it is a shape that has four sides.

A rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram and trapezium (trapezoid) has four sides. In light of this, it can be classified as a quadrilateral but, if the quadrilateral has no sides and angles equal, it could not be classified as any of the foregoing.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
