Is a rhombus always a parellelogram?
yes, a rhombus is always a parallelogram because the sides across from each other will be parallel.
Can a rhombus be a parellelogram if so why?
Not only can a rhombus be a parallelogram, it must be one. A rhombus is a quadrilateral which has two pairs of parallel lines. That makes it a parallelogram.
How is a rhombus and a parellelogram alike?
A rhombus is one special kind of parallelogram. Everything about it screams "parallelogram",except that all of its sides are the same length.
How man lines of symmetry does a parellelogram have?
Normally none unless it's in the shape of a rhombus which has 2 lines of symmetry.
What is a parellelogram with four congruent sides?
A parallelogram with equal sides is a rhombus. If the interior angles are right angles, it's a square.
Is a rhombus always a parellelogram?

What is the name of a parellelogram that is both a rectangle and a rhombus?
A square.

Is a square always a parellelogram?
Yes.
What figure is 2 dimensional with two pairs of parallel sides has no right angles and all sides are the same length?
A rhombus. More information... The no right angles is throwing me, but I will add this comment: A square A four-sided polygon having equal-length sides meeting at right angles. The sum of the angles of a square is 360 degrees. A Parellelogram is a four-sided polygon with two pairs of parallel sides. The sum of the angles of a parallelogram is 360 degrees. A Rhombus is a four-sided polygon having all four sides of equal length. The sum of the angles of a rhombus is 360 degrees. So, a Square is actually a Parellelogram and Rhombus as well; and it has 4 right angles. So... I am not sure that Parellelogram and Rhombus are what you were looking for,
Is the diagonals of a parellelogram perpendicular?
That is true for some parallelograms but not all. For example, the diagonals of a rhombus, kite or square are perpendicular, but those of a rectangle or general parallelogram are not.
Is a square the only four sided shape?
No, there are many four sided shapes. The Square is one of them. Others include rectangle,trapezoid, parellelogram, and rhombus
Does a parellelogram have two sets of parellel sides?
Yes
