GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED
DURING THE CLASS
1. Keep your Maths NCERT book, Geometry Notebook, Practice notebook, Pencil
box and other stationery items next to yourself so as to avoid movement during the
class.
2. It’s a humble request to keep your microphone on mute, camera on and speaker on
to hear class delivery with clarity. You will be prompted by the Teacher (Presenter)
when to unmute your microphone.
3. Do not ask questions during the progress of the lesson. Put your queries in the chat
box.
4. CW and HW questions to be done in the fair maths notebook.
5. Assignments will be shared in terms of handouts or worksheets on Amitranet.

QUADRILATERAL KINDS OF QUADRILATERALS
A 4-sided polygon
is a quadrilateral.
A quadrilateral has
• 4 vertices, 4 sides and 4 angles
• Opposite sides
• Adjacent sides
• Opposite angles
• Adjacent angles
A line joining two opposite vertices of a
quadrilateral is a diagonal.
TRAPEZIUM
• Trapezium is a quadrilateral with one pair of opposite sides
parallel.
• The sum of adjacent angles in a trapezium is 180°.

KITE
It is a quadrilateral where two pairs of
consecutive sides are equal.
i.e. AB = AD
BC = DC

EXAMPLE
Find the perimeter of the parallelogram PQRS.
Solution: In a parallelogram,
the opposite sides have same length.
Therefore,
PQ = SR = 12 cm and QR = PS = 7 cm
So, Perimeter = Sum of all sides
= PQ + QR + RS + SP
= 12 cm + 7 cm + 12 cm + 7 cm
= 38 cm

Exercise- 3.3, Q 1
Given a parallelogram ABCD. Complete each statement along with the
definition or property used.
(i) AD = … (ii) ∠DCB = …
(iii) OC = … (iv) m∠DAB + m∠CDA = …
Solution:
(i) In a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal in length.
∴ AD = BC
(ii) In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal in measure.
∴ ∠DCB = ∠DAB
(iii) In a parallelogram, diagonals bisect each other.
Hence, OC = OA
(iv) In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary to
each other.
Hence, m∠DAB + m∠CDA =180°

Exercise- 3.3, Q 3
Can a quadrilateral ABCD be a parallelogram if
(i) ∠D + ∠B = 180°?
(ii) AB = DC = 8 cm, AD = 4 cm and BC = 4.4 cm?
(iii) ∠A = 70° and ∠C = 65°?
Solution:
(i) For ∠D + ∠B = 180°, quadrilateral ABCD may or may
not be a parallelogram.
Along with this condition, the following conditions should
also be fulfilled.
The sum of the measures of adjacent angles should be
180°.
Opposite angles should also be of same measures.
(ii) No. Opposite sides AD and BC are of different
lengths.
(iii) No. Opposite angles A and C have different
measures.
