Additional Information
An ortho-diagonal quadrilateral i.e., any quadrilateral whose diagonals are perpendicular to each other possesses certain interesting properties. This article 'Quadrilaterals with Perpendicular Diagonals' by Shailesh Shirali (published in 'At Right Angles' | Vol. 6, No. 2, August 2017) discusses a few of them.
Learning Objectives
- Introduction to polygons
- The meaning of quadrilateral
- Identification of various types of quadrilaterals
- Different properties of special quadrilaterals
- Construction of quadrilaterals to given suitable data
- Finding area of quadrilaterals
- Introduction to cyclic quadrilaterals
Teaching Outlines
Concept 1: Introduction to Quadrilaterals
The word quadrilateral comes from two latin words "quadri" which means a "variant of 4" and 'latera' which means 'side'. A quadrilateral is a 4 sided figure with 4 sides, 4 angles and 4 vertices.
This topic has its basics in polygons. Try to elicit live examples for quadrilaterals from within classroom, starting from the shape of a textbook. Show the vertices of a rectangular page. Mark three sets of four points on the blackboard, one set being collinear and other non-collinear. Call students to join the points of each set of points. This activity will introduce them to the concept of quadrilateral.
Activities #
Introduction to quadrilaterals
This activity explores formation of a quadrilateral and elements related with the shape.
Identifying quadrilaterals
This is an exploration into quadrilaterals. A specific type of quadrilateral can be selected with the check boxes, and any blue dots on each quadrilateral can be dragged to change the shape.
Concept 3: Types of quadrilaterals
Quadrilaterals are of different types. Grouping is made based on the four angle measures and/or sides. Each type is recognised with its characteristic properties. The types include regular, non-regular; convex, concave; parallelogram (square, rectangle, rhombus,) and non-parallelograms (trapezium and kite).
Activities #
"I have - Who has ?"
A hands on group activity that helps in identifying and building vocabulary related to quadrilaterals.
Venn diagrams of quadrilaterals
Classifying quadrilaterals based on their properties and identifying related quadrilaterals with ven-diagram.
Concept 2: Properties of quadrilaterals
There are certain characteristic properties by which a quadrilateral is identified. A quadrilateral is a plane closed figure having 4 sides and 4 angles. The sum of all 4 interior angles of any quadrilateral always equals to 360 degrees.This is called interior angle sum property of a quadrilateral. The sum of all 4 exterior angles of any quadrilateral equals 360 degrees. This is called exterior angle sum property of the quadrilteral. The opposite angles of any quadrilateral are supplementary. If any 3 angles of a quadrilateral are known the fourth angle can be found using angle sum property.
Activities #
Angle sum property of a quadrilateral
Showing the sum of angles of a quadrilaterals by placing the angles of the quadrilateral adjacent to each other with a hand on activity.
Sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral
The sum of the measures of the angles in any quadrilateral is 4 right angles.
Sum of angles at point of intersection of diagonals in a quadrilateral
A diagonal is the line segment that joins a vertex of a polygon to any of its non-adjacent vertices. This two diagonals of a quadrilateral form angle, this activity explores property of these angles.
Area of a quadrilateral
A diagonal divides a quadrilateral into 2 triangles. Understanding area of a quadrilateral in terms of triangles is done with this activity.
