In general they are not; they are perpendicular only if the rectangle is also a sqare.
However, the diagonals of a retangle have another attribute: They are of equal length and bisect each other.

No. The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular only if the rhombus is a square.
No. The diagonals are perpendicular, but they dont have to be congruent.
If the diagonals are congruent and are perpendicular bisectors of each other then the parallelogram is a square. If the diagonals are not congruent but are perpendicular bisectors of each other then the figure would be a rhombus.
Well, honey, that would be rectangles. Those four-sided figures have diagonals that are equal in length and intersect at right angles outside the shape. So, if you're looking for a shape with some perpendicular diagonal action, rectangles are where it's at.
Not necessarily. But a parallelogram with perpendicular diagonals must always be one.
