What is a quadrilateral with no right angles and both pairs of opposite side parallel and equal in length?
A rhombus. Commonly referred to as a "diamond".
What is a rhombus usually called?
A rhombus is often called a diamond.
Why is a rhombus not called a diamond?
Because a rhombus is not a diamond. Really, a diamond isn't a real shape.'Diamond' is from decks of cards, 'Rhombus' is from Math. BTW, a rhombus is a parallelogram* with opposite acute** and obtuse*** angles and all four sides are the same length.*opposite sides of the shape are parallel**less than 90***more than 90 degrees
What do you call a rhombus shape?
Diamond Or cone * * * * * Partly correct. A rhombus can be called a diamond or a parallelogram or a quadrilateral. However, a rhombus is a 2-dimensional figure whereas a cone is 3-dimensional so you certainly could not call a rhombus a cone.
Is a diamond always a rhombus?
A rhombus is a geometric shape, a diamond is not. 'Diamond' is from decks of cards, 'Rhombus' is from Math. BTW, a rhombus is a parallelogram* with opposite acute** and obtuse*** angles and all four sides are the same length.*opposite sides of the shape are parallel** less than 90∘***more than 90∘
