8.3 Clasifying Quadrilaterals
A quadrilateral is a 2D shape with four straight sides. A diagonal is a line that joins to opposite corners of quadrilateral. Every quadrilateral has two diagonals. The diagonals always cut (cross) each other.
In some quadrilaterals the diagonal bisect each other. The word 'bisect' means to cut in half.
Here is some example of quadrilaterals:
