Answer Details
A Sonnet has a final couplet when it has two lines at the end of the poem that rhyme with each other. These two lines usually serve to summarize or conclude the theme of the poem.

Three quatrains are a type of sonnet that has three stanzas of four lines each, but it doesn't have a final couplet.
