The opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel. The opposite angles of a rhombus are equal. The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each vertex angle. The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.

Do diagonals always bisect?

In any parallelogram, the diagonals (lines linking opposite corners) bisect each other. ... That is, each diagonal cuts the other into two equal parts. In the figure above drag any vertex to reshape the parallelogram and convince your self this is so.

Are the diagonals of a rhombus diagonal?

Basic properties

It follows that any rhombus has the following properties: Opposite angles of a rhombus have equal measure. The two diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular; that is, a rhombus is an orthodiagonal quadrilateral. Its diagonals bisect opposite angles.
