  2. Rhombus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombus

    Using congruent triangles, one can prove that the rhombus is symmetric across each of these diagonals. 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 ...

  3. Varignon's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varignon's_theorem

    The Varignon parallelogram is a rhombus if and only if the two diagonals of the quadrilateral have equal length, that is, if the quadrilateral is an equidiagonal quadrilateral. [ 7 ] The Varignon parallelogram is a rectangle if and only if the diagonals of the quadrilateral are perpendicular , that is, if the quadrilateral is an orthodiagonal ...

  4. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    convex. In Euclidean geometry, a parallelogram is a simple (non- self-intersecting) quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. The opposite or facing sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure. The congruence of opposite sides and opposite angles is a direct consequence of ...

  5. Parallelogram law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram_law

    The sum of the areas of the blue squares equal that of the red ones. In mathematics, the simplest form of the parallelogram law (also called the parallelogram identity) belongs to elementary geometry. It states that the sum of the squares of the lengths of the four sides of a parallelogram equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two ...

  6. Parallelepiped - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelepiped

    A perfect parallelepiped is a parallelepiped with integer-length edges, face diagonals, and space diagonals. In 2009, dozens of perfect parallelepipeds were shown to exist, [3] answering an open question of Richard Guy. One example has edges 271, 106, and 103, minor face diagonals 101, 266, and 255, major face diagonals 183, 312, and 323, and ...

  7. Orthodiagonal quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodiagonal_quadrilateral

    An orthodiagonal quadrilateral (yellow). According to the characterization of these quadrilaterals, the two red squares on two opposite sides of the quadrilateral have the same total area as the two blue squares on the other pair of opposite sides. In Euclidean geometry, an orthodiagonal quadrilateral is a quadrilateral in which the diagonals ...

  8. Rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangle

    Diagonals are equal in length. Diagonals intersect at equal angles . The figure formed by joining, in order, the midpoints of the sides of a rectangle is a rhombus and vice versa.

  9. Regular polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_polygon

    Properties. Convex, cyclic, equilateral, isogonal, isotoxal. In Euclidean geometry, a regular polygon is a polygon that is direct equiangular (all angles are equal in measure) and equilateral (all sides have the same length). Regular polygons may be either convex, star or skew.
