What is a quadrangle?

A quadrangle is a polygon with four straight sides and four vertices. This means any shape that has exactly four straight edges qualifies, regardless of how it looks. A circle has no straight sides, so it isn’t a polygon. A triangle has only three sides. A rectangle with curved sides isn’t a polygon in the usual sense because it doesn’t have four straight edges. So the description of a four-sided figure is the correct one. (For context, the interior angles of any quadrangle sum to 360 degrees.)
