How can you convince me that a rhombus is a parallelogram but a parallelogram is not a rhombus?
A parallelogram requires that opposite sides are parallel and of the same length; it is not a requirement that all four sides are of the same length. A rhombus requires that opposite sides are parallel and all four sides are of the same length. It is possible that a parallelogram can have all four sides of the same length; when it does it now fulfils the requirements of a rhombus, and so is a rhombus. Thus a rhombus is a type of parallelogram (all rhombuses are parallelograms), but there are parallelograms which are not rhombuses (those where there are two sides of one length (opposite and parallel) and the other two sides of a different length).
What parallelogram that has sides with same length but is not a rectangle?
A Rhombus
What shape has 4 sides sides oppersite each other are the same length but the sides are not all the same length?
Rectangle, parallelogram
What is parallelogram none of the sides are the same length?
A parallelogram is a four sided quadrilateral and it has 2 same congruent sides. The top and the bottom.
Are all the sides of a parallelogram the same?
No but it does have two pairs of sides of equal length
Does a parallelogram have all sides the same length?
No.

Do all sides of a parallelogram have the same length?
No. But the opposite sides do - in pairs.
Parallelogram with all sides the same length?
A square.
A parallelogram with all sides the same length?
A rhombus
What is a parallelogram that has the same length of sides?
A square or a rhombus.
What parallelogram that has sides with same length but is not a rectangle?
A Rhombus
What shape has 4 sides sides oppersite each other are the same length but the sides are not all the same length?
Rectangle, parallelogram
How are parallelogram and a rhombus different?
All four sides of a rhombus are the same length. In a parallelogram there are two pairs of sides with equal lengths but one pair is different from the other pair.

What is different between rhombus and the parallelogram?
In a rhombus each of the sides is of the same length whereas in a parallelogram, each pair of opposite sides is of the same length but the two pairs are different.
Is a parallelogram are always rhombus?
No. A rhombus is a special case when all four sides are of the same length. A parallelogram must have opposite sides of equal length but adjacent sides can be of different length.
