Turn Your Geometry Notes Into a Map

Upload a worksheet, textbook chapter or lecture slides and get a branching map of every quadrilateral type.

Build from your own material

Upload a PDF, Word file, PowerPoint or photo of your notes, and the map follows your course's wording.

Compare shapes by their rules

Branches group shapes by parallel sides, equal sides and right angles so the family links are easy to see.

Quiz yourself from the map

Turn the finished map into a quiz, or make flashcards from the same notes, before your next test.

How to Make a Quadrilateral Map

Three steps take you from a messy page of geometry notes to a clear study map.

  1. 1

    Add your notes or topic

    Upload your chapter or slides, or simply type quadrilaterals as the topic.

  2. 2

    AI builds the map

    The generator sorts quadrilaterals into families with their defining properties on each branch.

  3. 3

    Study, expand and quiz

    Expand any shape with AI, edit the labels, export a PNG or PDF, or test yourself with a quiz.

Quadrilateral Concept Map Explained

A quadrilateral is any polygon with four sides and four angles that sum to 360 degrees. Concept maps group them into families. Parallelograms have two pairs of parallel sides, and rectangles, rhombuses and squares are special cases of that family. Trapezoids have exactly one pair of parallel sides, while kites have two pairs of equal adjacent sides.

  • Parallelograms: opposite sides parallel and equal, opposite angles equal
  • Rectangles and rhombuses: parallelograms with right angles or four equal sides
  • Squares: both rectangle and rhombus, with all sides and angles equal
  • Trapezoids: one pair of parallel sides, with isosceles versions having equal legs
  • Kites: two pairs of adjacent sides equal, one diagonal bisects the other

Use the map to revise properties before a test, then generate a personalized quadrilaterals map from your own notes with CogniGuide.

Quadrilaterals Concept Map FAQ

Answers about quadrilateral families and building your own map.

Is a square a rectangle?

Yes. A square has four right angles and four equal sides, so it meets the definition of a rectangle. It is also a rhombus, because all four of its sides are equal.

What is the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral?

The interior angles of any quadrilateral add up to 360 degrees. You can see this by splitting the shape into two triangles along one diagonal, each contributing 180 degrees.

Which files can I use to build my map?

You can upload a PDF, Word (DOCX) or PowerPoint (PPTX) file, a text or Markdown file, or an image of your notes, or you can type the topic directly.

Can I turn a quadrilaterals map into a quiz?

Yes. Once the map is ready, you can turn it into a quiz to test yourself, and the same notes can also become flashcards for review.
