NCERT Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals

Introduction :

In this chapter you come to know about polygons. A simple curved made up of only line segments is called polygon. Polygons are classified according to the number of sides or vertices they have.

A diagonal is a line segment connecting two non- consecutive vertices of a polygon. There are two types of polygons named convex and concave polygons.

NCERT Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Exercise 3.3

In this Exercise 3.3,understanding quadrilaterals, you will come to know about the properties of angles of a parallelogram.

• The opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure.

• The adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.

The diagonals of a parallelogram, in general are not of equal length. However, the diagonals of a parallelogram have an interesting property i.e the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

NCERT Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Exercise 3.4

In the Exercise 3.4 Understanding Quadrilaterals  you will come to know about the some special parallelograms like rhombus, square and rectangle.

Rhombus: Rhombus is a quadrilateral with sides of equal length. The most useful property of rhombus is that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of one another.

Rectangle:  A rectangle is a parallelogram with equal angles. Being a parallelogram, the rectangle has opposite sides of equal length and its diagonal bisect each other.

Square: A square is a rectangle with equal sides. A square has all the properties of a rectangle with an additional requirement that all the sides have equal length. The diagonals of a square are perpendicular bisectors of each other.
