They are the same length, so 1:1

* * * * *

In fact that is the one ratio they cannot be. A rhombus with equal diagonals is a square.

The ratio of the lengths can have any other positive value.

The diagonals of the rhombus are in the ratio 3 4 the perimeter of the rhombus is 40cm find the lengths of the sides and of the diagonals?

The length of the sides of the rhombus are 10cm, as a rhombus has equal sides. since the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular, ratio of side of rhombus to 1/2 a diagonal to 1/2 of another diagonal is 5:4:3 (pythagorean thriple), hence ratio of side of rhombus to 1 diagonal to another diagonal is 5:8:6. since 5 units = 10cm 8 units = 16cm 6 units = 12cm and there are your diagonals.


Is the diagonals of rhombus congruent?

"Congruent" isn't used to describe the diagonals of a rhombus. However, all four sides of a rhombus are congruent - they are all the same length.The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other. They are not the same length - if the diagonals were the same length, then you would have a square.


Does a rhombus have equal length?

The answer depends on which aspect of a rhombus. Its sides are of equal length but its diagonals are NOT!


If the diagonals of the rhombus are in the ratio 3 to 4 and the perimeter of the rhombus is 40 cm what are the lengths of the diagonals?

The lengths of the diagonals work out as 12 cm and 16 cm


What is the relationship between diagonals on a rhombus?

Not in general. The diagonals of a rectangle are equal length. A rhombus that is also a rectangle would be a square.


Why do the diagonals of a rhombus not have to be the same length?

The sides of a rhombus must all be the same length, but the angles do not need to be the same. The result is a diamond shape where the diagonals can be two different lengths.


Which quadrilateral has All sides are the same length the diagonals are not equal in length?

rhombus


Are the diagonals of a rhombus perpendicular and bisect each other?

Yes, they are perpendicular and intersect at their midpoints. The difference between diagonals in a rhombus as opposed to a rectangle or square is that the diagonals are not of equal length.


What can you find about the diagonals of a rhombus?

The diagonals are not equal in length but thet bisect each other at 90 degrees


What is a parallelogram with diagonals of different length intersecting at right angles?

A rhombus.


What polygons always have congruent diagonals?
