named quadrilaterals

"I'm thinking of one of these shapes"
[I've written it down, so that I will not be tempted to cheat...]

"you can ask me any questions
but I can only reply yes or no"















you can firmly identify a shape in at most three questions
what would your first question be?
are there alternatives?


can you string the eight special quadrilaterals in a line with just one difference between them?
