Square (geometry) - Definition and Overview

In plane geometry, a square is a polygon with four equal sides and equal angles. Those angles are then necessarily right angles. Squares are regular quadrilaterals, rectangles, rhombi, kites, parallelograms, and isosceles trapezoids/isosceles trapezia.

The diagonals of a square are equal and conversely, if the diagonals of a rhombus are proven to be equal, then that rhombus must be a square.

The coordinates for the vertices of a square centered at the origin and with side length 2 are (±1, ±1), while the interior of the same consists of all points (x0, x1) with -1 < xi < 1.

TIMECKAB: I always thought Geometry was pointless now that I knw who was behind us having to learn it makes sense
Keyandrew1: Check this #video out "Metatrons Cube: Sacred Geometry Video" http://bit.ly/3if1lD @DiscloseTV
Frankiee_baby: @mikeegoobs my head. lol. in geometry we had like a pick up line day cause jake came up to steffy and said the dq one. rofllllll
