Best Answer

They are a pair of quadrilaterals because they both have 4 sides and all 4 sides are equal.

How many right angles rhombus have?

A rhombus has 4 right angles just like the square * * * * * In general a rhombus has a pair of equal obtuse angles and a pair of equal acute angles. It is only in a special case that the shape has 4 right angles and then it is called a square.


Does a rhombus have acute and obtuse angles?

In general a rhombus has one opposite pair of congruent acute angles and one opposite pair of congruent obtuse angles. A square, however, is a rhombus with four right angles.

Is every rhombus a square?

No. A rhombus, in general, has a pair of acute angles opposite one another, and a pair of obtuse angles. It is only as a special case that all four angles are right angles and so the rhombus becomes a square.So every rhombus is NOT a square but every square is a special type of rhombus.


What is a parallelogram that is equilateral?

It would either be a square or rhombus. Equilateral means that all sides are the same, which both a square and a rhombus have. Equiangular means that all angles are equal which would be a square or a rectangle.The difference between a square and a rhombus is that a square has four equal angles (right angles) whereas a rhombus has one pair of acute opposite angles and one pair of obtuse opposite angles. It is a square slanted to one side.


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).


If square rhombus and trapezoid are placed in a pile which figure should be separated based on parallel sides?

A rhombus is an equilateral quadrilateral. Every rhombus is a parallelogram, and a rhombus with right angles is a square. A trapezoida is four-sided figure with one pair of parallel sides.So if you placed a square and a rhombus in a pile, they are both parallelograms and would have parallel sides. You can put them together. The trapezoid only has one pair of parallel sides.


Does a rhombus have 1 pair of parallel sides 2 of the angles are square corners?

None of that is true of a rhombus. -- A rhombus must have two pairs of parallel sides. -- A rhombus need not have any square corners. But if it has any at all, then it has four of them, and most people looking at it would call it a square.


What makes a kite different from a rhombus?

What shape is a quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel and the four sides the same length?

Either a square or a rhombus. A square has four equal (right) angles, while a rhombus has two pair of equal opposite angles (one pair acute, one pair obtuse) between the four equal sides.
