Why is a square both a rhombus and a rectangle?
A square is a rectangle. A square is a rectangle with equal sides. A rectangle Has to have 4 right angles (and only 4 corners). A Square has the same definition (4 right angles, and only 4 corners) but all the sides have to be equal. A square is not a rhombus. A rhombus is a parallelogram with equal sides. A parallelogram has to have 4 sides (2 pairs of equal sides.) The equal sides must be parallel. A rhombus has the same definition (4 sides - 2 pairs of equal sides. The equal sides must be parallel.) but all the sides have to be equal lengths.
What are the properties of rhombus and rectangle that square has?
Properties of rhombus that square has :- * All sides are equal. Properties of rectangle that square has :- *Each angle is 90 degree. *Diagonals are equal.
How is a rhombus similar to a square?
All four of the sides of a rhombus, whether it's a square or not, have the same length. However, any rhombus that's not a square doesn't have four equal angles.
Can a rectangle also be a rhombus?
In general no, but in one specific special case yes. A rhombus is a quadrilateral in which all four sides are of equal length. A square is a special case of a rhombus in which all four angles are equals (to 90°). A rectangle is a quadrilateral in which all four angles are equal (to 90°) and opposite sides are equal in length A square is a special case of a rectangle in which all four sides are equal in length. Thus the only rectangle that can be a rhombus is the special case when a rectangle is a square (which is also a rhombus).
What would you have to change in a rhombus to make it a square?
all sides must be equal so you increase the sides
Is a parallelogram with all sides equal and all angles equal?
This would be a square. A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal. A square is a rhombus with all angles equal (to 90°)
How can distinguish a square from a rhombus?
a square is a plain figure which has all the sides equal but a rhombus is a plain figure which has the opposite sides equal.
A quadrilateral with all equal sides?
It is a rhombus - of which, a square is a special case.
What quadrilateral has 4 equal sides?
A rhombus is a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides and if the angles are also all equal that that rhombus is a square.
Why can a square be identified as a rhombus?
A square can be identified as a rhombus because a square is a specific type of rhombus that has all four sides equal in length and all four angles equal to 90 degrees. In other words, a square is a special case of a rhombus where all sides are equal and all angles are right angles.
A quadrilataral in which all sides are equal?

Is square a parallelogram with all sides equal?
Not unless all angles are also equal. A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal. A rectangle is a parallelogram with all angles equal. A square is a rhombus with all angles equal which is a parallelogram with all sides equal and all angles equal.
How is a square and rectangle differnet?
a square's sides are all equal and can be called a rhombus but a rectangle's sides aren't all equal
What is a shape with four equal sides?
It is a rhombus. It all the angles are also equal (at 90°), then the rhombus is called a square.
Are sides of a rhombus are equal?
yes, they all equal like a square
