Are all side of a parallelogram the same length?
Not necessarily. Usually only the opposite side are of equal length. If all 4 sides are of the same length, the parallelogram is [also] called a rhombus.
If each side of a quadrilateral is congruent to its opposite side then the quadrilateral is a rectangel?
Not necessarily; it is a parallelogram - a rectangle is a parallelogram in which all angles are 90o. It could also be a rhombus - a rhombus is a parallelogram with all lengths the same; a square is a rhombus in which all angles are 90o.
Why is a rhombus special?
A rhombus is a special case of a parallelogram where all side are the same length.
How is the area of a rectangle and a parallelogram the same?
A parallelogram is just a rectangle leaned to one side
How is a rhombus the same as a parallelogram?
A rhombus is a parallelogram, but a parallelogram isn't always a rhombus. A rhombus is a parallelogram where all the lines are the same length.

How can you find the area of a parallelogram if you only know the side lengths?
The area of a parallelogram is equal to base times height. You can find the maximum area of a parallelogram by multiplying the length of a short side by the length of a long side. (This would be the area if the parallelogram were a rectangle.)You cannot know the area of a parallelogram if all you know is the length of the sides; you can only know the maximumpossible area. Imagine you slant the parallelogram a lot. The area will decrease, but the side lengths will stay the same.
Is a square and a parallelogram same?
A square is a parallelogram, but not all parallelograms are squares.
What is a parallelogram which is a equileteral?
The special name given to a parallelogram with all side equal is a RHOMBUS.
Does a parallelogram have all sides the same?
No. A parallelogram has opposite sides parallel.A square is a parallelogram with all sides being equal and all internal angles being 90 degrees.A rectangle is a parallelogram with all internal angles being 90 degrees. and opposite side being equal in length.A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal, but internal angles are not necessarily 90 degrees.
What is a parallelogram with all same angles and all same sides?
A square.
Is rhombus and parallelogram the same?
yes * * * * * No, it is not. A rhombus is a special kind of parallelogram. In a rhombus all four sides are of the same length: that is not necessarily the case for a parallelogram.
How is a square different from a parallelogram?
A parallelogram is a shape or figure with Four sides that have one of the opposite sides of one side the same lenth. So a square IS a parallelogram.
