The quadrilateral and its angles

The quadrilateral and its angles

  • A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides and four angles.
  • The sum of its interior angles is 360°, because a diagonal divides it into two triangles, and each triangle has angles that add up to 180°.
  • The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the four sides.
  • The area depends on the type of the quadrilateral, as the examples show.
