Question
How many different 4-sided shapes (quadrilaterals) can you make? Here are three possible shapes. Have you made a shape like the one shown on the right?
Answer

This shape is called a kite.
What do you notice about the sides of a kite?
Side 1 = Side 2.
Similarly, Side 3 = Side 4.
These sides are called adjacent sides.
Here are two other possible quadrilaterals that are not kites.
