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.
