A closed figure with four sides means it's a quadrilateral. Each of the different types of quadrilaterals have special properties. The instructor in this video explains the special properties of a rhombus. Parallel sides and congruent...

What makes a polygon a regular polygon? Does this mean there are irregular polygons? For a polygon to be classified as a regular polygon, all the sides must be congruent and all the angles must be congruent. Those are the two rules that...

A rectangle, a rhombus, a square, a trapezoid - are any of these a parallelogram? What are the criteria that make a shape a parallelogram? It has something to do with parallel sides, congruent sides, and congruent angles. Help your young...

There are two parallel lines intersected by one straight line, what's that one line called? A transversal. There are a few more things to know about transversal lines and the angles they create. What are vertical angles? Are they...

Finding the missing values of two angles in an isosceles triangle is not as difficult as it sounds. But how can two out of three angle's measurements be found? Well, there are special properties about an isosceles triangle which make...
