A square is a special case of rhombus. Here are some properties of a rhombus:
- A quadrilateral (4 sided polygon) with all four sides equal length.
- Two pairs of parallel sides (so it is also a rectangle)
- Opposite angles will equal each other. Two adjacent angles will add to 180°
- Diagonals are perpendicular
- Area can be calculated by multiplying the diagonals, then divide by 2.
In a square, all four angles are equal to 90°, so a square is also a special case of a rectangle, as well as rhombus.

What is the difference between square and rhombus?
All the sides of a rhombus are equal in length,as in a square.The sizes of the angles do not have to equal 90° as in a square.
What types of quadrilaterals describe a square?
a square is a mix between a rhombus and a rectangle
If a figure is a rhombus then it is a square True or False?
FALSE a square is a rhombus but a rhombus is not a square
What is the main difference between a square and rhombus?
A square must have 4 right angles, but a rhombus may or may not have 4 right angles.
If a quadrilateral was a rhombus then it is always a square?
Rhombus Not a SquareIn a square, the sides are perpendicular. In a rhombus, they aren't. A rhombus is never a square.
2 similarities and 2 differences between a square and a rhombus?
One difference is that a square has right angles, but a rhombus only has acute and obtuse angles. A similarity is that if you tilt a square it turns into a rhombus. Another similarity is that they are both Quadrangles. Another difference is that Rhombus lines are slanted. Hoped that helped! ;0)
Similarities and differences of a square and rhombus?
The main difference between a square and a rhombus is that a square has all its angles equal to 90 degrees and a rhombus does not. A square has 4 lines of symmetry while rhombus only has 2. The diagonal lengths of a square are of the same measure. Rhombus diagonal lengths are of different measures. They are both a quadrilateral, all sides are equal in length, and opposite sides are parallel to each other.
How is rhombus similar to square?
4 sides, similarities.

What is the diference between a rhombus and a square?
A rhombus is a(n) equilateral parallelogram. A square is forming a right angle.
Can a rhombus be a square?
A square is always a rhombus, but a rhombus is notalways a square.
Are rhombus a square?
A square is always a rhombus, but a rhombus is notalways a square.
What is the main differences in a squares and in rhombuses?
A rhombus is a geometric figure having four sides of equal length. If all the angles inside the rhombus are right angles (90o), then the rhombus is a square.
What is the difference between square and rhombus?
