Level 3-4 Shapes - Quadrilaterals

In your KS3 Maths journey, you've encountered lots of cool shapes - circles, triangles, pentagons, and more. But guess what? This quiz is all about quadrilaterals!

Quadrilaterals are 2D shapes with four sides and four angles. You might think of squares and oblongs, but there are different types of quadrilaterals with unique properties.

The name "quadrilaterals" comes from Latin, where QUAD means 4, and LATERAL means sides. What's special about them? The interior angles of any quadrilateral always add up to 360o

There are more rules, like side lengths or parallel sides, that help classify quadrilaterals into types like rhomboids or trapeziums. Take the quiz that follows to test how well you know your quadrilaterals!

1.
Which of these shapes is NOT a quadrilateral?
Circle
Rectangle
Rhombus
Square
A circle does not have four sides
2.
Which of the following does a parallelogram NOT have?
A line of symmetry
Four angles
Opposite angles are equal
Opposite sides which are equal in length
If it did have a line of symmetry then it would be either a rhombus or a rectangle
3.
The interior angles of a quadrilateral add up to how many degrees?
90
180
360
720
By adding a diagonal you can split a quadrilateral into 2 triangles. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180o, so the sum of two triangles will be 360o
4.
How does a rhombus differ from a parallelogram?
All sides are equal in length
Opposite angles are equal
Opposite sides are parallel
Rotational order of symmetry is two
A rhombus is like a 'squashed' square or a diamond
5.
Here are four shapes. Which one is NOT a quadrilateral?
Kite
Parallelogram
Trapezium
Triangle
A triangle does not have four sides
6.
A scalene quadrilateral has no sides which are .......
curved
parallel
equal
smooth
Just as a scalene triangle has sides of unequal length, the same is true of a scalene quadrilateral
7.
How many angles of a square MUST be 90 degrees?
2
3
4
None
All four sides MUST be equal too
8.
What is a true statement about a kite?
All four sides are equal in length
Has one pair of parallel sides
Has two pairs of adjacent sides equal in length
It has no lines of symmetry
A kite is a quadrilateral whose four sides can be grouped into two pairs. Each pair is adjacent and of equal-length
9.
How many sides of a trapezium MUST be parallel?
2
3
4
None
The definition of a trapezium is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides
10.
What makes an isosceles trapezium different to an 'ordinary' trapezium?
A line of symmetry
No rotational symmetry
Non-parallel lines of equal length
One pair of parallel lines
Just as an isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length, so too with an isosceles trapezium which makes it symmetrical
