Special cases of isosceles trapezoids. Rectangles and squares are usually considered to be special cases of isosceles trapezoids though some sources would exclude them. [3] Another special case is a 3-equal side trapezoid, sometimes known as a trilateral trapezoid [4] or a trisosceles trapezoid.
Any non-self-crossing quadrilateral that has an axis of symmetry must be either a kite, with a diagonal axis of symmetry; or an isosceles trapezoid, with an axis of symmetry through the midpoints of two sides. These include as special cases the rhombus and the rectangle respectively, and the square, which is a special case of both. [1]
Trapezoid special cases. The orange figures also qualify as parallelograms. A right trapezoid (also called right-angled trapezoid) has two adjacent right angles. [13] Right trapezoids are used in the trapezoidal rule for estimating areas under a curve. An acute trapezoid has two adjacent acute angles on its longer base edge.

The square has Dih 4 symmetry, order 8. There are 2 dihedral subgroups: Dih 2, Dih 1, and 3 cyclic subgroups: Z 4, Z 2, and Z 1. A square is a special case of many lower symmetry quadrilaterals: A rectangle with two adjacent equal sides; A quadrilateral with four equal sides and four right angles; A parallelogram with one right angle and two ...

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.
The cyclic equidiagonal quadrilaterals are exactly the isosceles trapezoids. There is a duality between equidiagonal quadrilaterals and orthodiagonal quadrilaterals : a quadrilateral is equidiagonal if and only if its Varignon parallelogram is orthodiagonal (a rhombus), and the quadrilateral is orthodiagonal if and only if its Varignon ...
