This is a "Quadrilaterals Checklist" worksheet designed to test knowledge of the properties of different four-sided polygons. The task is to fill in the grid by marking which properties apply to each specific quadrilateral listed.

I will solve this by going through each quadrilateral one by one and determining which of the eight properties are true for it, based on standard geometric definitions.

Let's begin with the first shape: Parallelogram.

---

1. Parallelogram



A parallelogram is defined as a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.

- Opposite Sides Parallel: Yes, this is the definition.
- Opposite Sides Congruent: Yes, a property of all parallelograms.
- Opposite Angles Congruent: Yes, another key property.
- All Equal Sides: No, only if it's a rhombus or square.
- All Equal Angles: No, only if it's a rectangle or square.
- Congruent Diagonals: No, diagonals are not necessarily equal.
- Perpendicular Diagonals: No, they are perpendicular only in a rhombus or square.
- Diagonals Bisect Each Other: Yes, this is a fundamental property of parallelograms.

2. Rectangle



A rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles.

- Opposite Sides Parallel: Yes, because it is a parallelogram.
- Opposite Sides Congruent: Yes, because it is a parallelogram.
- Opposite Angles Congruent: Yes, because it is a parallelogram (and all angles are 90°).
- All Equal Sides: No, unless it is a square.
- All Equal Angles: Yes, all four angles are 90°.
- Congruent Diagonals: Yes, this is a defining property of rectangles.
- Perpendicular Diagonals: No, they are perpendicular only in a square.
- Diagonals Bisect Each Other: Yes, because it is a parallelogram.

3. Rhombus



A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal.

- Opposite Sides Parallel: Yes, because it is a parallelogram.
- Opposite Sides Congruent: Yes, because it is a parallelogram (and all sides are congruent).
- Opposite Angles Congruent: Yes, because it is a parallelogram.
- All Equal Sides: Yes, this is the definition.
- All Equal Angles: No, unless it is a square.
- Congruent Diagonals: No, they are congruent only in a square.
- Perpendicular Diagonals: Yes, this is a key property of a rhombus.
- Diagonals Bisect Each Other: Yes, because it is a parallelogram.

4. Square



A square is a special type of rectangle and rhombus; it has all the properties of both.

- Opposite Sides Parallel: Yes.
- Opposite Sides Congruent: Yes.
- Opposite Angles Congruent: Yes.
- All Equal Sides: Yes.
- All Equal Angles: Yes (all 90°).
- Congruent Diagonals: Yes.
- Perpendicular Diagonals: Yes.
- Diagonals Bisect Each Other: Yes.

---

5. Kite



A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are congruent.

- Opposite Sides Parallel: No, generally not.
- Opposite Sides Congruent: No, adjacent sides are congruent, not opposite.
- Opposite Angles Congruent: No, only one pair of opposite angles is congruent (the ones between the unequal sides).
- All Equal Sides: No, unless it is a rhombus.
- All Equal Angles: No.
- Congruent Diagonals: No, they are not necessarily congruent.
- Perpendicular Diagonals: Yes, this is a key property of a kite.
- Diagonals Bisect Each Other: Only one diagonal is bisected by the other (the longer one bisects the shorter one). The diagonals do not bisect *each other*. So, this is No.

---

6. Trapezoid



A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. (We'll use the inclusive definition, which includes parallelograms, but since parallelograms are listed separately, we'll consider a trapezoid here as having exactly one pair of parallel sides).

- Opposite Sides Parallel: Only one pair, so No for "opposite sides parallel" as a general statement (since it implies both pairs).
- Opposite Sides Congruent: No, not necessarily.
- Opposite Angles Congruent: No.
- All Equal Sides: No.
- All Equal Angles: No.
- Congruent Diagonals: No, not necessarily.
- Perpendicular Diagonals: No, not necessarily.
- Diagonals Bisect Each Other: No, not necessarily.

---

7. Isosceles Trapezoid



An isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid where the non-parallel sides (legs) are congruent.

- Opposite Sides Parallel: Yes, it has one pair of parallel sides (the bases).
- Opposite Sides Congruent: No, only the legs are congruent, not the bases.
- Opposite Angles Congruent: Yes, the base angles are congruent.
- All Equal Sides: No.
- All Equal Angles: No.
- Congruent Diagonals: Yes, this is a key property of an isosceles trapezoid.
- Perpendicular Diagonals: No, not necessarily.
- Diagonals Bisect Each Other: No.

Final Answer:



Here is the completed checklist:

| Quadrilateral | Opposite Sides Parallel | Opposite Sides Congruent | Opposite Angles Congruent | All Equal Sides | All Equal Angles | Congruent Diagonals | Perpendicular Diagonals | Diagonals Bisect Each Other |
|----------------------|-------------------------|--------------------------|---------------------------|-----------------|------------------|---------------------|-------------------------|-----------------------------|
| Parallelogram | Yes | Yes | Yes | No | No | No | No | Yes |
| Rectangle | Yes | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | Yes | No | Yes |
| Rhombus | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | No | No | Yes | Yes |
| Square | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Kite | No | No | No | No | No | No | Yes | No |
| Trapezoid | No | No | No | No | No | No | No | No |
| Isosceles Trapezoid | Yes | No | Yes | No | No | Yes | No | No |
