![]() We can draw a rectangle EFGH around kite ABCD as illustrated below. Because the diagonals of the kite are perpendicular (at right-angles) to one another, the kite can be broken down into two pairs of congruent, right-angled triangles. We can perform a similar exercise with the kite. The rectangle has double the area of the original trapezium By definition, a square is also a rectangle, a parallelogram and a rhombus (see below). The diagonals in a square are of equal length, bisect each other, and are orthodiagonal (i.e. The square is said to be equilateral because all four sides are of equal length (this makes the square both a regular polygon and a regular quadrilateral), and all four internal angles are right-angles (i.e. Square - probably the easiest type of quadrilateral to work with because of its simplicity, and certainly one of the most recognisable.Examples of the various configurations are shown below, together with the name given to each shape and a brief description of its characteristics. Many of the configurations result in shapes that have specific names, and at least some of these names are probably familiar to you. In addition, one or both pairs of opposite sides may be parallel. On the other hand any two or more sides may be equal in length, and any two or more angles may be of the same magnitude. It is perfectly possible to have a quadrilateral in which no two sides and no two angles are the same. Incidentally, it is worth noting that the sum of the internal angles S for any polygon is related to the number of sides n that the polygon has by the following formula:ĭifferent types of quadrilaterals have different properties that are determined by the specific relationship between the sides and angles of the quadrilateral. The sum of the internal angles is always three hundred and sixty degrees ( 360°). As well as having four sides, quadrilaterals have four vertices, four internal angles, and two diagonals (a diagonal is an imaginary line that connects opposite vertices). ![]() Unless otherwise stated, the term quadrilateral is used here to refer only to simple quadrilaterals. There is also a type of quadrilateral called a complex or crossed quadrilateral, which we will talk about later. There are certain characteristics, however, that are common to all simple quadrilaterals. There are several types of quadrilateral, all with their own distinct characteristics. So all other quadrilaterals are irregular.A quadrilateral (from the Latin "quadri", meaning "square" and "latus", meaning "side") is a four-sided polygon (a polygon is a flat, enclosed shape with multiple straight edges). The only regular (all sides equal and all angles equal) quadrilateral is a square. and that's it for the special quadrilaterals. one of the diagonals bisects (cuts equally in half) the other.the diagonals, shown as dashed lines above, meet at.The KiteĮach pair is made of two equal-length sides that join up. (the US and UK definitions are swapped over!)Īn Isosceles trapezoid, as shown above, has left and right sides of equal length that join to the base at equal angles. NOTE: Squares, Rectangles and Rhombuses are allĪ trapezoid (called a trapezium in the UK) has a pair of opposite sides parallel.Īnd a trapezium (called a trapezoid in the UK) is a quadrilateral with NO parallel sides: Also opposite anglesĪre equal (angles "A" are the same, and angles "B" ![]() The ParallelogramĪ parallelogram has opposite sides parallel and equal in length. In other words they "bisect" (cut in half) each other at right angles.Ī rhombus is sometimes called a rhomb or a diamond. The RhombusĪ rhombus is a four-sided shape where all sides have equal length (marked "s").Īlso opposite sides are parallel and opposite angles are equal.Īnother interesting thing is that the diagonals (dashed lines) meet in the middle at a right angle. The SquareĪ square has equal sides (marked "s") and every angle is a right angle (90°)Ī square also fits the definition of a rectangle (all angles are 90°), and a rhombus (all sides are equal length). ![]() ![]() The little squares in each corner mean "right angle"Ī rectangle is a four-sided shape where every angle is a right angle (90°).Īlso opposite sides are parallel and of equal length.

![]() ![]() The top 3-in-1 wireless charger on our list is the Belkin Boost Charge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad with MagSafe. But there are plenty of good ones out there! Which 3-in-1 wireless charger is best? It's hard to pick one company as the ultimate in wireless charging, but of the brands represented on this list, we recommend Belkin, Otterbox and Nomad as our favorite wireless charger makers. Which company's wireless charger is best? Plus there's no in-box charger, leaving it up to you to find a compatible brick to use it. ![]() Also while you can rotate your iPhone through 360 degrees laterally, there's no movement back and forth, which could make checking the phone or watching content on it awkward, depending on how your table's set up and where you're sitting. Only problem is that that cradle doesn't charge an iPhone at its maximum 15W speed (only 7.5W), nor the Apple Watch 7 at its new faster speed. There's also a removable spacer to make larger-faced models sit more securely too. ![]() The highlight for me here is the Apple Watch charging cradle, which not only is removable, but will work with any USB-C outlet for convenient charging on the go. Satechi's 3-in-1 stand does a good job of keeping its size to a minimum while still letting you power up your iPhone, wireless earbuds and Apple Watch simultaneously. If you need a space for your Apple wearable on the Slider2, make sure you buy the more expensive version that comes with it included. Keep in mind though that the "Power Dongle" accessory that you need to charge your Apple Watch is not sold with the standard version of the charger. The rear charging panel has a magnetically adjustable stand to help you charge your earbuds in the optimum position, plus there's another USB-C output for charging other devices. The main iPhone charging section only powers your phone at 7.5W rather than the full 15W, but it's also a removable 4,000 mAh power bank in case you need a little extra juice on the move. But lock the stand in place and you've got a cleverly designed charging stand that's ideal for users wanting to power up their phone and several accessories in a limited amount of space. It's fun just to play with the MagEZ Slider2, since the spinning mechanism that allows the stand to face any direction makes a satisfying clicking sound as it moves. Also, there doesn't seem to be support for the Apple Watch 7's faster charging standard, which may bother users who need a quick refuel before their next workout.Īpple Watch charger not included on base model It's placed behind the iPhone charger, which hides the smartwatch and may make it hard to get to without removing the phone or going in over the top of the charger. I am not as much of a fan of the Apple Watch charger though. I particularly appreciated the 90 degrees of motion that the iPhone charger has, which lets you hold the phone at a specific angle (good for watching stuff while powering up), or charge non-magnetic accessories like a pair of AirPods by tilting it into its flat position. With its silver and white finish, it'll match well with your other Apple gear, while the magnetic charging surfaces will keep your Apple Watch and iPhone secure as they power up. If space on your desk is at a premium, this handsome charger from Otterbox gives you the most compact footprint we've come across for a 2-in-1 charger. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In one puzzle alone, I used to block to disable a force field by setting it on a trigger, after which I took a jammer to disable the fan that was blowing me back down one particular corridor. The Talos Principle's first-person perspective puzzles differ from Portal's with their emphasis on deliberate thinking rather than action and speed. Want a real challenge? Go for the puzzles that reward stars. It eases you into the tough parts (perhaps too gently, as the going is a tad too easy early on), but in time it reaches a pitch of near-orchestral magnitude. It doesn't introduce any nifty, novel gimmicks of its own in the vein of Portal's portal gun, but it positively nails using conventional elements like blocks, signal jammers, laser connections, motion-recording devices, and even turrets to complete each puzzle. While developer Croteam handles both elements well, they don't complement each other as well as they probably should. It's a game I found myself thinking about more often the longer I'm away from it, and I'm surprised that it's the non-puzzle elements that stick with me the most. (No, it doesn't have anything to do with the man-god of Skyrim.) Barely a second goes by when it doesn't encourage you to either stretch the limits of your mind with some brutally tough but rewarding puzzles or to consider the nature of humanity and the conundrums of empiricist philosophy. The Talos Principle, much as its name suggests, is a thinker's game. ![]() ![]() ![]() The present mechanic is the same as described above. “A present for you!”- The first (and possibly following, more testing needs to be done) power used on Krampus by a pirate will result in Krampus casting a spell that damages and transforms the Pirate into a present.Crumbles comes with guaranteed critical Assassin’s Strike(s).This prevents you from moving, attacking, or using any sort of power.

![]() ![]() ![]() It's something I've deliberated on several times during my life, but I always end up thinking that I'd rather not. I wouldn't get a tattoo of anything at all myself.

While it's certainly from old germanic lore and has been found in viking societies like Oseberg, it's not that commonly known among the average Norwegian.

The fact is, just because a pistol may work for a police officer does not mean it is suited for the entire department’s standard-issue weapon. Just because the marketing trend may be to bridge the gap between law enforcement and civilian use, the reality is not necessarily true.
