• A quadrilateral is a four sided polygon which has four sides, angles and vertices.
• There are multiple types of quadrilaterals from which the 520 main ones are convex
and concave quadrilaterals.
• Convex quadrilaterals: All interior angles are acute, right or obtuse,
• Concave quadrilaterals: One interior angle is a reflex angle.

Properties
Parallelograms
• One pair of opposite sides is parallel while the second pair isn’t.
• Angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.
