The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular. A rhombus is a special kind of parallelogram. It has the characteristics of a parallelogram (both pairs of opposite sides parallel, opposite sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent, diagonals bisect each other.) It also has special characteristics. It has four congruent sides. So it looks like a lopsided or squished square. Its diagonals are perpendicular. Another property: each diagonal bisects two angles of the rhombus.

Are the diagonals of a rhombus perpendicular?
Yes, the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular.
Do the diagonals of a rectangle have to be perpendicular?
Nope, in order for the diagonals to be perpendicular the shape must be a square (which I guess is a type of rectangle :). The diagonals will cross, but not at a 90degree angle, unless the sides are of equal length.Not unless the rectangle has 4 equal sides, making it a squre.
