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.
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.
Yes, in a sense.
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.
That is called a rhombus.
