What are the attributes of a square and a rhombus?
A rhombus is any four-sided figure whose sides are equal. A square is any rhombus with a right angle in it.
Can a rhombus still be rhombus if its upside down?
A rhombus has four sides of equal length. It can be in any orientation.
Can two scalene triangles not be congruent but have 5 congruent parts?
No. Any three consecutive congruent parts (angle-side-angle or side-angle-side) make any two triangles completely congruent.
How many right angles are there in a rhombus?
A rhombus normally has no right angles (at the vertices). If a rhombus has right angles (at the vertices), it is called a square. The diagonals of a rhombus meet at right angles.
In a quadrilateral each side is parallel to its opposite side and the diagonals are not perpendicular What could it be?
Is rectangle and any parallelogram not square or rhombus
Can any two triangle be joined together to make a rhombus and what are the triangles that can make the rhombus?
no two triangles can make a square
Do any two triangles can be joined to make a rhomus?
No, two scalene triangles, for example, can never make a rhombus..
Do any two triangles can be joined to make a rhombus?
yes it can because if you put the triangles on top of each other then that will maske a rhombus so the answer is YES
Can any 2 triangles can be joined to make a rombous?
Yes. It's easiest to see how by working backwards. Draw a rhombus, then draw a line between two opposite corners. Poof! You have two triangles.
Can any two triangles be joined to make a rhombus?
No. A rhombus has all four sides of equal length. To split a rhombus into only 2 triangles, it must be split along a diagonal; which means that 2 of the sides of one of the triangles must be the same length as the sides of the rhombus, which being equal mean the triangles must be (at least) isosceles - scalene triangles will not work. Further, as the diagonal will be a common length to each of the triangles (the length of their third sides), it will form the base (ie the side opposite the vertex between the sides of equal length) of the isosceles triangles, and so the triangles must be to congruent isosceles triangles. If the diagonal has the same length as the side of the rhombus, then the two congruent triangles will be congruent equilateral triangles.

yes
How do you use geomitry words to describe how to join triangles to make quadrilaterals?
Any 2 congruent triangles joined together will form a 4 sided quadrilateral
What does a square based pyramid look like?
the base is a 2-d square with joined triangles, meeting together to make a corner at the top, the triangles height can be any height, or the square can be any size
Is a regular pentagon made up of 5 isosceles triangles?
It can be, if all the vertices of the pentagon are joined to its centre. But if they are joined to any other point, it will not be.
What shapes can you make out of three triangles?
You can make any triangle, quadrilateral or pentagon with three suitable triangles.
What kind of triangles make up the faces of a triangular hexahedron?
They can be any kind of triangles.
