Why can a quadrilateral not be called a parallelogram a rectangle a rhombus or a trapezoid?
A quadrilateral is a generic term used to describe a four sided polygon. In other words, it is a shape that has four sides.A rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram and trapezium (trapezoid) has four sides. In light of this, it can be classified as a quadrilateral but, if the quadrilateral has no sides and angles equal, it could not be classified as any of the foregoing.
Is a rhombas always a perellelgram?
A quadrilateral is a term used to describe a rhombus. A rhombus has at least two equal sides, and is also referred to as a parallelogram. As long as the rhombus has two equal sides, it will always be considered a parallelogram.
Is a square a rhombus because?
A rhombus can be defined in 2 ways: # A quadrilateral with four equal sides, or # A qyuadrilateral with 4 equal sides but no right angles. Both definitions are used. If the definition used is the first of these then a square is a special case of a rhombus. But if it is the second definition then it is not.
What are all the possible names for a rhombus?
A rhombus can also be referred to as a diamond or a lozenge, particularly in informal contexts. In geometry, it may be described as an equilateral quadrilateral, as all four sides are of equal length. Additionally, when specific angles are involved, it can sometimes be called a rhombus-shaped parallelogram. However, "rhombus" remains the most commonly used and recognized term.
