A lever.
No. A triangle is the only rigid polygon.
No
A diamond is not a rigid shape unless it has a brace. A brace is a diagonal line you put inside shapes to make them rigid. Triangles are rigid so if you put a brace in a square to make two triangles the square is now rigid.

If the bar has a central axis that includes the fixed point, it's an axle. If the bar is affixed to the point and the axis of the bar is skewed with reference to the point, it's a lever. We're not splitting hairs here. There are some possibilities that were not addressed in the question, and it is hoped they were covered here. In the case of the axle, it isn't tough to visualize that. In the latter case, think of the bar as the handle of a dog on a marine hatch. Use the link below to see a picture.
The stiff rod to which you are referring is a LEVER. The pivot point is the Fulcrum.
In mechanics, a rigid bar that pivots about one point and that is used to move an object at a second point by pressure applied to a third point. The pivot therefore is variable according to the weight of the object to be moved
The fulcrum. A Lever is a rigid rod to which a force can be applied to overcome a resistance. The point at which a lever pivots is called the fulcrum.
The degree of freedom of a rigid body when one point of the body is fixed is zero. This means that the rigid body has no motion at all as it is completely pinned down by the fixed point. Any movement of the rigid body would cause it to become non-rigid.The degrees of freedom of a rigid body are expressed in terms of six independent parameters which are:Translation in three orthogonal directionsRotation around three orthogonal axesWhen one point of the rigid body is fixed the body cannot move in any of these directions resulting in a degree of freedom of zero.
Any rigid body can rotate if it moves repeatedly about a fixed axis. If the axis is inside the body that is also called revolving.
The rigid bar is not called a fulcrum! And, by the same token, why is the bar called a bar?
friction
it's was a lever ..........
liquids are Not rigid in shape, but DO have a fixed volume
