An equilic quadrilateral has two opposite equal sides that when extended, meet at 60°. A Watt quadrilateral is a quadrilateral with a pair of opposite sides of equal length. [6] A quadric quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral whose four vertices all lie on the perimeter of a square. [7]
A tangential quadrilateral with its incircle. 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.
A complete quadrangle (at left) and a complete quadrilateral (at right).. In mathematics, specifically in incidence geometry and especially in projective geometry, a complete quadrangle is a system of geometric objects consisting of any four points in a plane, no three of which are on a common line, and of the six lines connecting the six pairs of points.
The four fortresses of the Quadrilatero.. The Quadrilatero (English: Quadrilateral, for greater specificity often called the "Quadrilateral fortresses") is the traditional name of a defensive system of the Austrian Empire in the Lombardy-Venetia region of Italy, which connected the fortresses of Peschiera, Mantua, Legnago and Verona between the Mincio, the Po, and the Adige Rivers.

Saccheri quadrilaterals. A Saccheri quadrilateral is a quadrilateral with two equal sides perpendicular to the base.It is named after Giovanni Gerolamo Saccheri, who used it extensively in his 1733 book Euclides ab omni naevo vindicatus (Euclid freed of every flaw), an attempt to prove the parallel postulate using the method reductio ad absurdum.
In geometry, a cyclic quadrilateral or inscribed quadrilateral is a quadrilateral (four-sided polygon) whose vertices all lie on a single circle, making the sides chords of the circle. This circle is called the circumcircle or circumscribed circle , and the vertices are said to be concyclic .
In Euclidean geometry, a harmonic quadrilateral, or harmonic quadrangle, [1] is a quadrilateral that can be inscribed in a circle (cyclic quadrilateral) in which the products of the lengths of opposite sides are equal. It has several important properties.
