What is a rhombus?

Back

A rhombus is a type of polygon that is a quadrilateral (four sides) with all sides of equal length.

What are the properties of a rhombus?

Back

1. All sides are equal in length. 2. Opposite angles are equal. 3. Adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180 degrees). 4. The diagonals bisect each other at right angles.

What is the relationship between the diagonals of a rhombus?

Back

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, meaning they cut each other in half and form 90-degree angles.

If one angle of a rhombus is 90 degrees, what can be said about the other angles?

Back

If one angle of a rhombus is 90 degrees, then all angles are 90 degrees, making it a square.

How do you determine the length of a diagonal in a rhombus?

Back

To find the length of a diagonal in a rhombus, you can use the Pythagorean theorem if you know the lengths of the sides and the angles.

What is the significance of the diagonals in a rhombus?

Back

The diagonals of a rhombus not only bisect each other but also help in determining the area and can be used to find the lengths of the sides.
