What is a rhombus?state it property

A rhombus is a type of quadrilateral. It is a special case of a parallelogram, whose diagonals intersects each other at 90 degrees. This is the basic property of rhombus. The shape of a rhombus is in a diamond shape, hence it is also called a diamond.

Some of the important properties of the rhombus are as follows:

• All sides of the rhombus are equal.
• The opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel.
• Opposite angles of a rhombus are equal.
• In a rhombus, diagonals bisecting each other at right angles.
• Diagonals bisect the angles of a rhombus.
• The sum of two adjacent angles is equal to 180 degrees.
• The two diagonals of a rhombus form four right-angled triangles which are congruent to each other
• You will get a rectangle when you join the midpoint of the sides.
• You will get another rhombus when you join the midpoints of half the diagonal.
• Around a rhombus, there can be no circumscribing circle.
