What are quadrilaterals that are Rhombuses?

A rhombus is a quadrilateral whose all four sides are equal in length and opposite sides are parallel to each other. However, the angles are not equal to 90°. A rhombus with right angles would become a square. Another name for rhombus is ‘diamond’ as it looks similar to the diamond suit in playing cards.

What is an irregular quadrilateral?

What is rhombus math?
