Can a parallelogram be a rhombus?
If the sides of a parallelogram are all of the same length then it is a rhombus. Thus, a rhombus is a special type of parallelogram.
Is every parallelogram a rhombus?
A rhombus is a self-intersecting shape with four sides. Every parallelogram is a rhombus. The angle of the intersections are the only variances.* * * * *Not true.A rhombus is a simple polygon. It is notself-intersecting.Every rhombus is a parallelogram but every parallelogram is not a rhombus! (The opposite of what the previous answer claimed.) All four sides of a rhombus are of the same length. In a parallelogram, each pair of opposite sides are equal, but the adjacent sides are of different length.
Why is a parallelogram is not necessarily a rhombus?
The definition of a parallelogram is that it has four sides, the opposite sides are congruent and parallel, and opposite angles are congruent. This includes rectangles, squares, rhombuses, etc.The definition of a rhombus states that it is a parallelogram, but more specifically that all sides are congruent.So a rhombus is a parallelogram, but not all parallelograms are rhombuses.
If all four sides of a parallelogram are congruent then is the parallelogram is a rhombus?
Yes, in a sense.
What is A parallelogram with all sides the same length?
That is called a rhombus.
Can a parallelogram be a rhombus?
If the sides of a parallelogram are all of the same length then it is a rhombus. Thus, a rhombus is a special type of parallelogram.
What is a parallelogram with all sides congruent is called?
It is a rhombus that has 4 equal sides which is also classed as a parallelogram
Is a rhombus a type of parallelogram?
Yes, and it has 4 equal sides.Yes a rhombus is a type of a parallelogram that has 4 equal sides
Why is a parallelogram not a rhombus?
It is, if all four of its sides are the same length.
Why is a rhombus always a parallelogram but a parallelogram is never a rhombus?
A rhombus is a special kind of parallelogram: one in which all sides are equal. It is not true to say that a parallelogram is never a rhombus.
Is every parallelogram a rhombus?

What is a parallelogram with all sides equal called?
A rhombus.A rhombus would fit the description
Is rhombus and parallelogram the same?
yes * * * * * No, it is not. A rhombus is a special kind of parallelogram. In a rhombus all four sides are of the same length: that is not necessarily the case for a parallelogram.
What is a parallelogram with all sides the same length but not a rectangle?
It is a rhombus
A parallelogram not a square with all sides same length?
A rhombus.
How can you convince me that a rhombus is a parallelogram but a parallelogram is not a rhombus?
A parallelogram requires that opposite sides are parallel and of the same length; it is not a requirement that all four sides are of the same length. A rhombus requires that opposite sides are parallel and all four sides are of the same length. It is possible that a parallelogram can have all four sides of the same length; when it does it now fulfils the requirements of a rhombus, and so is a rhombus. Thus a rhombus is a type of parallelogram (all rhombuses are parallelograms), but there are parallelograms which are not rhombuses (those where there are two sides of one length (opposite and parallel) and the other two sides of a different length).
Is every pair of parallelogram a rhombus?
A parallelogram is a rhombus only if all four of its sides have the same length.
