The sides of a rhombus must all be the same length, but the angles do not need to be the same. The result is a diamond shape where the diagonals can be two different lengths.

Is the diagonals of rhombus congruent?

"Congruent" isn't used to describe the diagonals of a rhombus. However, all four sides of a rhombus are congruent - they are all the same length.The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other. They are not the same length - if the diagonals were the same length, then you would have a square.


Which quadrilateral has All sides are the same length the diagonals are not equal in length?

rhombus


Does a prallelogram have to have diagonals the same length?

In general, the diagonals of a parallelogram are NOT the same length. They're equalonly when the parallelogram is either a rectangle or a rhombus (including square).


What is the ratio of the length of diagonals of a rhombus?

They are the same length, so 1:1 * * * * * In fact that is the one ratio they cannot be. A rhombus with equal diagonals is a square. The ratio of the lengths can have any other positive value.


Which is the best classification for a parallelogram with perpendicular diagonals?

It is a rhombus. All four sides have the same length and the diagonals are therefore perpendicular.


Does a rhombus have equal length?

The answer depends on which aspect of a rhombus. Its sides are of equal length but its diagonals are NOT!


In which quadrilateral are the diagonals always congruent?

The diagonals of a rhombus are always congruent. A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides of equal length. Due to its symmetry, the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, and they are always of the same length. This property distinguishes a rhombus from other quadrilaterals like rectangles or parallelograms.


What is the area of a rhombus with 5 centimeter diagonals?

The diagonals of a rhombus cannot be the same size.


Similariteis between a rhombus and a parallelogrom?

A rhombus is a parallelgram but with all 4 sides the same length (congruent). Also, the diagonals if a rhombus are perpendicular but not necessarily congruent.


What is the relationship between diagonals on a rhombus?

Not in general. The diagonals of a rectangle are equal length. A rhombus that is also a rectangle would be a square.


How do you find the value of x in a rhombus?

To find the value of x in a rhombus, use these properties. All sides of a rhombus are the same length. Opposite angles of a rhombus are the same size and measure. Intersection of the diagonals of a rhombus form right angles. Sides are perpendicular. The diagonals of rhombus bisect each other. Adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees.


Are the diagonals of a rhombus perpendicular and bisect each other?

Yes, they are perpendicular and intersect at their midpoints. The difference between diagonals in a rhombus as opposed to a rectangle or square is that the diagonals are not of equal length.
