Kite (geometry) A kite, showing its pairs of equal-length sides and its inscribed circle. In Euclidean geometry, a kite is a quadrilateral with reflection symmetry across a diagonal. Because of this symmetry, a kite has two equal angles and two pairs of adjacent equal-length sides. Kites are also known as deltoids, [ 1 ] but the word deltoid ...
The rhombus has a square as a special case, and is a special case of a kiteand parallelogram. In plane Euclidean geometry, a rhombus(pl.: rhombior rhombuses) is a quadrilateralwhose four sides all have the same length. Another name is equilateral quadrilateral, since equilateral means that all of its sides are equal in length.
A square is a limiting case of both a kite and a rhombus. Orthodiagonal equidiagonal quadrilaterals in which the diagonals are at least as long as all of the quadrilateral's sides have the maximum area for their diameter among all quadrilaterals, solving the n = 4 case of the biggest little polygon problem.
A square is a special case of a rhombus (equal sides, opposite equal angles), a kite (two pairs of adjacent equal sides), a trapezoid (one pair of opposite sides parallel), a parallelogram (all opposite sides parallel), a quadrilateral or tetragon (four-sided polygon), and a rectangle (opposite sides equal, right-angles), and therefore has all ...
Any square, rectangle, isosceles trapezoid, or antiparallelogram is cyclic. A kite is cyclic if and only if it has two right angles – a right kite.A bicentric quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrilateral that is also tangential and an ex-bicentric quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrilateral that is also ex-tangential.

In Euclidean geometry, a tangential quadrilateral (sometimes just tangent quadrilateral) or circumscribed quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral whose sides all can be tangent to a single circle within the quadrilateral. This circle is called the incircle of the quadrilateral or its inscribed circle, its center is the incenter and its radius ...
A quadrilateral is a square if and only if it is both a rhombus and a rectangle (i.e., four equal sides and four equal angles). Oblong: longer than wide, or wider than long (i.e., a rectangle that is not a square). [ 5 ] Kite: two pairs of adjacent sides are of equal length.
