Does a rhombus have equal adjacent angles?

Generally, no. A rhombus will have supplementary adjacent angles (i.e. adding up to 180 degrees). The only time where the adjacent angles will be equal is when they are 90 degrees which by the way is a square.


If two angles form a linear pair then they are adjacent and what?
