Both are quadrilaterals. A rectangle has 4 right angles, a rhombus has 2 pairs of equal angles (at opposite corners) A rhombus has 4 equal sides, a rectangle has 2 pairs of equal sides. The opposite sides in both shapes are parallel to each other.
No, all quadrilaterals are trapeziums. I kite must have 2 pairs of adjacent sides equal in length.
Parallelogram ANS2: Rectangles and squares have two pairs of equal sides. The sides of a square are all equal. Parallelograms have two pairs of equal sides, the rhombus being a special case where all sides are equal. The rhombus is also described as a 'crushed square'. 'Parallelogram' includes the rectangle, square and rhombus. You also have to look at 'kites' and concave quadrilaterals that could be described as folded kites and bowties.
A kite has 2 pairs of equal sides.
There are lots of different quadrilaterals that do not have two pairs of parallel sides: a kite, arrowhead, trapezium, and a shape which has no specific name.
