Do all rhombuses have only 1 set of equal length sides?
yes
Are parallelograms rhombuses?
Some parallelograms are rhombuses, but all rhombuses are parallelograms. A parallelogram is a rhombus if and only if all of it's sides are the same length.
Do all rhomuses have 2 parralel sides?
Yes all rhombuses have 2 equal pairs of parallel sides.
All rhombuses are rectangles?
No. A rectangle has all angles equal to 90o; a rhombus has opposite angles equal but they do not need to be 90o; thus all rhombuses are not rectangles. All rectangles have four equal angles and opposite sides of equal length, all four sides need not be the same length; a rhombus has all 4 sides of equal length; thus all rectangles are not rhombuses either.
What is true of all rhombuses?
-- The rhombus has four sides. -- All four of its sides are equal in length. -- Its opposite sides are parallel. -- The sum of its interior angles is 360 degrees. -- Its opposite angles are equal. -- Its diagonals are perpendicular and bisect each other. A rhombus with all 4 angles equal (at 90°) is called a square (which is a special kind of rectangle in which all 4 sides are of equal length); thus some rhombuses are rectangles (and some rectangles are rhombuses).
Do all rhombuses have only 1 set of equal length sides?
yes
Do all rhombuses have 4 equal sides?
Yes they do.
Are all rhombuses parellelograms?
All rhombuses are parallelograms because to be a parallelogram you only have to have four sides and have opposite sides congruent.
Are parallelograms rhombuses?
Some parallelograms are rhombuses, but all rhombuses are parallelograms. A parallelogram is a rhombus if and only if all of it's sides are the same length.
Are all rhombuses also rectangles?
No. Rhombuses that are also rectangles are called squares. Rhombuses are parallelograms with 4 equal sides, while rectangles are parallelograms where all the angles are right.
Do all rhomuses have 2 parralel sides?
Yes all rhombuses have 2 equal pairs of parallel sides.
All rhombuses are rectangles?

What is the main difference between a squares and rhombuses?
Both squares a rhombuses have all equal sides. A square is a rhombus with 4 right angles.
What is the difference between rhombuses and parallelograms?
For parallelograms, the lengths of each side in one pair of opposite sides don't have to be equal to the lengths of each side in the other pair, so, even though two sides are always equal in length, all 4 sides are only sometimes equal in length (as with a square). A rhombus always has all 4 sides equal in length. A rhombus (like a square or a diamond) is a parallelogram, but not all parallelograms are rhombuses.
All kites are rhombuses?
No because a rhombus has 4 equal sides whereas a kite has only 2 equal sides but they are both quadrilateral polygons.
Do all rhombuses are parallelograms?
A rhombus is a special parallelogram in its own right inasmuch it has 4 equal sides and 2 diagonals that intersect at 90 degrees
