What is Quadrilateral???

In geometry, a quadrilateral can be

defined as a closed,  two-
dimensional shape which has four
straight sides. 
What is two dimensional shape??
• In geometry, a two-dimensional shape can be
defined as a flat plane figure or a shape that
has two dimensions – length and width. 

• Two-dimensional or 2-D shapes do not have

any thickness and can be measured in only
two faces. 
Examples of 2-d shapes or two dimensional
shapes…
We can find the shape of quadrilaterals in various things around us,
like in a chess board, a deck of cards, a kite, a tub of popcorn, a sign
board and in an arrow.
Properties of a Quadrilateral:
• A quadrilateral has 4 sides, 4 angles and 4
vertices.
• A quadrilateral can be regular or irregular.
• The sum of all the interior angles of a
quadrilateral is 360°.
