Practice and Revision - Rectilinear Figures (Quadrilaterals)
Let us practise and revise what we learned about rectilinear figures (quadrilaterals). Rectilinear figures are shapes with straight sides, i
Core concept
A parallelogram has opposite sides parallel and equal, opposite angles equal, and diagonals that bisect each other.
How it works
A rectangle is a parallelogram with all angles equal to 90°, while a rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal.
Why it matters
The sum of interior angles in any quadrilateral is always 360°, a fundamental property used to solve related problems.
Key detail
Understanding quadrilateral properties helps us identify, classify, and prove geometric relationships involving these shapes.

Quick notes
• A parallelogram has parallel, equal opposite sides.
• Opposite angles are equal.
• Diagonals bisect each other.
• A rectangle has all angles 90°.
• A rhombus has all sides equal.
• Quadrilateral interior angles sum to 360°.
• This helps solve related problems.
• These properties aid shape identification and proofs.
