For parallelograms, the lengths of each side in one pair of opposite sides don't have to be equal to the lengths of each side in the other pair, so, even though two sides are always equal in length, all 4 sides are only sometimes equal in length (as with a square). A rhombus always has all 4 sides equal in length. A rhombus (like a square or a diamond) is a parallelogram, but not all parallelograms are rhombuses.

Can a quadrilateral be a parallelogram and a rhombus?
Yes. All rhombuses are parallelograms, but the reverse is not true. (I.e. there are parallelograms which are rhombuses and there a parallelograms that are not rhombuses. -- Just like Every bus has wheels but not everything with wheels is a bus.)
Are parallelograms and rhombus the same think?
No. All rhombi (rhombuses) are parallelograms but all parallelograms are not rhombi.
What is the difference between a rhombuses and a rectangle?
A rectangle is correct; a rhombuses is not.
What shapes are also parallelograms?
squares, rectangles, rhombuses
Which three quadrilaterals have obtuse angles?
parallelograms, rhombuses, & hexagons
