Inductive reasoning is the process of making inferences based on observations of patterns/repetitions, or generalizing from detailed facts.
Squares, rectangles, parallelograms, kites, and trapezoids each have many characteristics, but the only ones they have in common are the number of sides and the total degrees. Through inductive reasoning, we can deduce that these are characteristics common to all quadrilaterals.
