In this case, the quadrilateral is sometimes a parallelogram.
A quadrilateral is an object formed by four straight lines - two of which meet at an angle. A diagonal is one of the lines which go from one angle to the one other angle in the quadrilateral which it is not already connected to. If the angles of the quadrilateral are A, B, C and D, and A is connected by a straight line to B and D then the diagonal is a line between A and C. A--B | \ | D--C
Rhombus.....
You need to know the lengths of the sides and at least one angle or the length of a diagonal.
If both pairs of opposite sides are parallel: A Rectangle, or a Square. If exactly one pair of opposite sides are parallel: An Isosceles Trapezoid. If it does not have parallel sides and one diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other: A Kite It is also possible that it does not have any parallel sides and neither diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other: A quadrilateral
The diagonals of a kite are perpendicular, and one diagonal is bisected. ~
They are perpendicular and one diagonal is bisected.
No. It could be a kite.
The diagonals are perpendicular to one another. The shorter diagonal is bisected by the longer diagonal. The kite is symmetrical about the longer diagonal. The longer diagonal bisects the angles at each end of the diagonal.
In this case, the quadrilateral is sometimes a parallelogram.

parallelogram with one diagonal
Rhombus.....
Yes: The intersection is at one end of each side. This is true for a diagonal of any quadrilateral.
Not necessarily. But a parallelogram with perpendicular diagonals must always be one.
You would have to consider a triangle formed by one diagonal and two sides of the quadrilateral. If you know the lengths of these sides, and the measure of the angle between them, you can use the cosine law to find the diagonal. c2 = a2 + b2 -2ab(cosC)
