In this program we explore the properties of quadrilaterals. We do this in the context of two real-world applications. In the first, we explore the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright as an application of squares and rectangles; in particular, we look at his Fallingwater house.

Stonehenge is best known as a circular structure. But it's the post and lintel construction used that is noteworthy, and this type of construction involves quadrilateral shapes.

Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural masterpiece Falling Water is also a stunning assembly of quadrilateral shapes.
