Polygon – a closed many straight-sided figure.
Angle – is a figure formed by two non-collinear rays that meet at a common end point.
Degree – a unit of measurement of an angle or arc, represented by the symbol º.
120º
DefinitionRight Angle – an angle whose measure is exactly 90°.Also define as an angle formed by 2 perpendicular lines.
DefinitionPerpendicular lines– are two lines intersecting at right angles.
For example,ray EP & ray ET.

Quadrilateral – it refers to any four-sided figure.
a polygon with 4 angles and 4 straight sides.
You can name a quadrilateral the right as:
