on . Posted in Plane Geometry

• Rectangle (a two-dimensional figure) is a quadrilateral with two pair of parallel edges.
• Circumcircle is a circle that passes through all the vertices of a two-dimensional figure.
• Diagonal is a line from one vertices to another that is non adjacent.
• Polygon (a two-dimensional figure) is a closed plane figure for which all edges are line segments and not necessarly congruent.
• Quadrilateral (a two-dimensional figure) is a polygon with four sides.
• a ∥ c

• a = c
• b = d
• ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D = 360°
• 4 interior angles are 90°
• 2 diagonals
