subject: Saccheri Quadrilaterals [print this page] A saccheri quadrilateral is one of the quadrilaterals. Saccheri quadrilaterals is defined the two parallel sides are perpendicular to the quadrilateral base. Any quadrilateral has four sides and four vertices. Quadrilaterals are called one of the polygons. The quadrilaterals item names are square, rectangle, parallelogram rhombus, trapezoid and kite. Next we discuss about this articles saccheri quadrilaterals.
Saccheri Quadrilaterals
Saccheri quadrilaterals have four sides and four vertices. Diagonals of the saccheri quadrilaterals are two. Saccheri quadrilaterals are separated by two triangles. The saccheri quadrilateral is generally declared the square and rectangle.
Square saccheri quadrilaterals
Square is one type of quadrilaterals. The square is a saccheri quadrilateral. Parallel side of square is perpendicular to the base. The following diagram is declaring the saccheri quadrilaterals.

MNOP is a saccheri square. Angle N and angle O is the right angle. Square side MN is congruent to the side OP. Side MP is similar to the side NO.
Rectangle saccheri quadrilaterals
Rectangle is one type of quadrilaterals. The rectangle is a saccheri quadrilateral. Parallel side of rectangle is perpendicular to the base. The following diagram is declaring the saccheri quadrilaterals.

MNOP is a saccheri rectangle. Angle N and angle O is the right angle. Rectangle side MN is congruent to the side OP. Side MP is similar to the side NO.
Example Problem of Saccheri Quadrilaterals
Problem 1: four line geometry
Calculate the area of the rectangle the length value is 9.7 cm and width of rectangle value is 5.4 cm?
Solution
The formula for area of rectangle is A = L * W
L = 9.7 cm
W = 5.4 cm
A = 9.7 * 5.4
A = 52.38
The area of the rectangle value is 52.38 cm.
Problem 2: four line geometry
Calculate the area of the square side value is 3.28 cm?
Solution
The formula for area of square is A = a2
a = 3.28 cm
A = 3.28 * 3.28
A = 10.7584
The area of the square value is 10.7854 cm.
A quadrilateral is four sided figure with four straight lines. Lines joining the opposite vertices are called diagonal of the quadrilateral. Square, rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram, trapezium are all quadrilateral. A quadrilateral has four vertices, four sides, four angles and two diagonals.Let us see some questions asked in quadrilaterals quiz.
