Can a Rhombus Be a Square?

Square is a rhombus because as rhombus all the sides of a square are equal in length. Even, the diagonals of both square and rhombus are perpendicular to each other and bisect the opposite angles. Therefore, we can say the square is a rhombus.

Is a rhombus a square Yes or No Why?

A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides equal in length. A square is a quadrilateral with all sides equal in length and all interior angles right angles. Thus a rhombus is not a square unless the angles are all right angles.

Why is a rhombus not a square?

All the sides are equal. All the angles are equal to 90°. The diagonals are equal. A rhombus does NOT have all the properties of a square, therefore is not a special kind of square.
