  2. Quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrilateral

    A quadric quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral whose four vertices all lie on the perimeter of a square. [7] A diametric quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrilateral having one of its sides as a diameter of the circumcircle. [8] A Hjelmslev quadrilateral is a quadrilateral with two right angles at opposite vertices. [9]

  3. Tangential quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_quadrilateral

    In a tangential quadrilateral, the four angle bisectors meet at the center of the incircle. Conversely, a convex quadrilateral in which the four angle bisectors meet at a point must be tangential and the common point is the incenter. [4]

  4. Lambert quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_quadrilateral

    In geometry, a Lambert quadrilateral (also known as Ibn al-Haytham–Lambert quadrilateral), [1] [2] is a quadrilateral in which three of its angles are right angles. Historically, the fourth angle of a Lambert quadrilateral was of considerable interest since if it could be shown to be a right angle, then the Euclidean parallel postulate could ...

  5. Cyclic quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_quadrilateral

    Other names for these quadrilaterals are concyclic quadrilateral and chordal quadrilateral, the latter since the sides of the quadrilateral are chords of the circumcircle. Usually the quadrilateral is assumed to be convex, but there are also crossed cyclic quadrilaterals. The formulas and properties given below are valid in the convex case.

  6. Square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square

    In non-Euclidean geometry, squares are more generally polygons with 4 equal sides and equal angles. In spherical geometry, a square is a polygon whose edges are great circle arcs of equal distance, which meet at equal angles. Unlike the square of plane geometry, the angles of such a square are larger than a right angle.

  7. Rhombus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombus

    It follows that any rhombus has the following properties: Opposite angles of a rhombus have equal measure. The two diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular; that is, a rhombus is an orthodiagonal quadrilateral. Its diagonals bisect opposite angles. The first property implies that every rhombus is a parallelogram.

  8. Kite (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kite_(geometry)

    It divides the quadrilateral into two congruent triangles that are mirror images of each other. [7] One diagonal bisects both of the angles at its two ends. [7] Kite quadrilaterals are named for the wind-blown, flying kites, which often have this shape [10] [11] and which are in turn named for a hovering bird and the sound it makes.

  9. Newton–Gauss line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton–Gauss_line

    The two complete quadrilaterals have a shared diagonal, EF. N lies on the Newton–Gauss line of both quadrilaterals. N is equidistant from G and H, since it is the circumcenter of the cyclic quadrilateral EGFH. If triangles GMP, HMQ are congruent, and it will follow that M lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line HG.
