No. Even in the non-US use of the term (a quadrilateral with at least one set of parallel lines), the lengths of the parallel lines may not be the same, and/or the angles formed by each adjacent side may be different (as in a rhomboid), resulting in diagonals of extremely different lengths.
Only in rectangles are diagonals "always" of equal length.

Is every property of parallelogram also a property of all rectangles?
No as for example the diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length whereas they are not equal in length in a parallelogram
Properties of a square?
Four sided figure. All sides are the same length. All angles are equal. Four right angles. Both diagonals are equal.
Which is not true for all palelogram?
To determine which statement is not true for all parallelograms, let's review the properties of parallelograms in general. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with the following properties: Opposite sides are parallel. Opposite sides are equal in length. Opposite angles are equal. Consecutive angles are supplementary (i.e., their sum is 180 degrees). Diagonals bisect each other (each diagonal cuts the other into two equal parts). Given these properties, we can formulate some statements about parallelograms and identify which one is not universally true. Here are a few statements, with one being false: Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel. Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal. The diagonals of a parallelogram are equal in length. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. Analysis: **Statement 1** is true: By definition, opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel. **Statement 2** is true: Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal. **Statement 4** is true: The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. Statement 3: The diagonals of a parallelogram are equal in length This statement is **not true for all parallelograms**. It is only true for special types of parallelograms such as rectangles and squares, where the diagonals are equal. In a general parallelogram, the diagonals are not necessarily of equal length. Thus, the statement **"The diagonals of a parallelogram are equal in length"** is not true for all parallelograms.
A shape are the diagonals equal?
not in all shapes.
Is a square sometimes a rhombus?
By definition, a rhombus is a parallelogram with all its sides equal in length and is symmetrical about each of its diagonals..A square is a rectangle with all its sides equal in length and is symmetrical about its diagonals and the axes perpendicularly bisecting each pair of opposite sides.Consequently, a square can never be a rhombus but it could be argued that a rhombus whose vertex angles all become 90° then becomes a square.
Do all parallelogram have diagonals of equal length?
yes
Which quadrilateral has All sides are the same length the diagonals are not equal in length?
rhombus
Which quadrilaterals have diagonals that are not equal in length?
All but the square and rectangle.
Is every property of parallelogram also a property of all rectangles?
No as for example the diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length whereas they are not equal in length in a parallelogram
Is a quadrilateral always a kite?
No, all quadrilaterals are trapeziums. I kite must have 2 pairs of adjacent sides equal in length.
Are the diagonals of a rectangle equal in length all the time?
it depends on if all the sides of the rectangle, like a square, fall under CPCTC. if that is accurate, then the diagonals will all be the same :) hopefully this helps! :)
Properties of a square?
Four sided figure. All sides are the same length. All angles are equal. Four right angles. Both diagonals are equal.
How does a square differ from a rhombus?
A square is a rhombus with all angles 90o. When the angles of a rhombus are not all 90o, it differs from the square in this respect, and the diagonals are not of equal length unlike those of a square. A rhombus is like a square in that all its sides are equal in length, opposite sides are parallel and the diagonals are perpendicular and bisect each other.
Is a parallelogram's diagonals perpendicular?
If the parallelogram happens to also be a rhombus (i.e. has all sides equal in length) then yes, otherwise no.
