Can all triangles join to make rhombus?

Three I think but I'm not 100% sure. :-)


Can any two triangles be joined to make a rhombus?

No. A rhombus has all four sides of equal length. To split a rhombus into only 2 triangles, it must be split along a diagonal; which means that 2 of the sides of one of the triangles must be the same length as the sides of the rhombus, which being equal mean the triangles must be (at least) isosceles - scalene triangles will not work. Further, as the diagonal will be a common length to each of the triangles (the length of their third sides), it will form the base (ie the side opposite the vertex between the sides of equal length) of the isosceles triangles, and so the triangles must be to congruent isosceles triangles. If the diagonal has the same length as the side of the rhombus, then the two congruent triangles will be congruent equilateral triangles.

What is a paralellogram with all sides congruent?

A rhombus if it has no right triangles, and a square if all the angles are right. The basic answer is a rhombus or square.


Are all rhombuses triangles?

No - a rhombus has four sides, while a triangle has three.


What two shapes are in a rhombus?

Well, this is a question that you can argue on. It all depends on how you divide the rhombus. There can be a triangle and a trapezoid. There can also be two triangles. The last one that I can think of right now are two rhombuses inside the original rhombus.


What shapes can you make out of two triangles?

You can make a square, a rhombus, a parrallelogram, a kite, a rectangle, and a trapezoid. If you were to make all these shapes out of two triangles, you would have to have different sized triangles for most of them. If you put the bottoms of both of them together, it will make a diamond shape. But they would have to be the same size.


What are all the shapes in geometry?

There are a great many different shapes that are in Geometry. There are squares, circles, triangles, rhombus', and hexagons for example.


What quadrilateral can have a diagonal line and is made with 2 equilateral triangles?

A Rhombus. If it makes two equilateral triangles with a diagonal, the shape must have all four sides of equal length; thus it is a rhombus, possibly a square. As an equilateral triangle is made, the angle between two of the sides is 60o; which is not 90o, so it can't be a square, so it must be a rhombus.


What shape can you make when you combine 4 rhombus?

If they are all congruent, a bigger rhombus


What quadilateral can you make with triangles?

All of them.


If a polygon has equal sides does it have equal angles?

The answer is no. It is true of triangles, but not necessarily of other polygons. A good counterexample is the Rhombus. You can define a Rhombus as a quadrilateral with 4 congruent ( equal) sides. However, only the opposite angles are equiangular, not all 4 angles. Picture, if you will, a very elongated Rhombus to easily see this. The only equiangular Rhombus is the Square. Many regular polygons are equiangular but not all.
