Best Answer

yes all rumbuses are 4 sided


If the question is, "Are all rhombuses four sided", then the answer above is correct.

If the question is, "Are all four sided shapes a rhombus", then the answer is no. The definition of a Rhombus is "a rhombus or rhomb is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length." A rectangle only has 2 pairs of sides that are equal length.

Does a rhombus have only one pair of equal side?

All sides of a rhombus are the same size. I think a rhombus can but doesn't have to, a rhombus is any four sided shape (not including a square).

Why is a four sided shape always a square?

A four-sided shape, or quadrilateral, is not always a square. It can also be a rectangle, an oblong, a parallelogram, a rhombus, a diamond, a kite, a trapezium or a delta (arrowhead/chevron). Sometimes it does not even have a name. A square is the only quadrilateral to have all four sidea and all four angles the same, and in any four - sided shape , the sum of the 4 angles is always 360`.


Is a quadrilateral?

A quadrilateral is a four-sided figure that has straight sides and no curves. It can be a square and any shape that has four sides that connect, hence four angles and four vertices. Examples of quadrilaterals are a square, rectangle, parallelogram, rhombus.A quadrilateral is a 4 sided shape such as a square, rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram ... etc


How is a parallelogram different from a rhombus?

Technically, a rhombus is a parallelogram, but a parallelogram is not always a rhombus. A parallelogram is any four-sided shape with two sets of parallel lines. A rhombus is a parallelogram with all equivalent side lengths. So, a rhombus is a more specific parallelogram. (And so is a a square or a rectangle.)

Why is a square a rhombus?

A rhombus is any four-sided shape where all four sides are of equal length. A square has four sides. Each angle needs to be a right angle, a 90o angle, or else it will look skewed. If a side is longer than another side, it will look either skewed or like a rectangle. So, a square is any four-sided shape that has sides of equal length, which makes it a rhombus according to the definition above. Not all rhombuses are square - because their sides are equal but not their angles - but all squares are rhombuses.

How is a rhombus different from a quadrilateral?

It is no different from a quadrilateral.A quadrilateral is any shape with four sides and a rhombus has four sides, therefore it is a quadrilateral.
