Look at the following rhombus:
Are the diagonals of the rhombus perpendicular to each other?
The diagonals of the rhombus are indeed perpendicular to each other (property of a rhombus)
Therefore, the correct answer is answer A.
Yes.
Look at the following rhombus:
Are the diagonals of the rhombus parallel?
Look for right angle markers (small squares) where the diagonals cross! In the diagram, you can see the diagonals form four equal angles at their intersection point.
No! Rhombus diagonals are perpendicular but not necessarily equal in length. Only in a special rhombus called a square are the diagonals both perpendicular AND equal.
A rhombus has all four sides equal and diagonals that are perpendicular. This is different from rectangles (equal diagonals) or parallelograms (no special diagonal properties).
Yes! Rhombus diagonals not only cross at 90° angles but also bisect each other - meaning they cut each other exactly in half at the intersection point.
You can prove it by showing that the four angles formed where diagonals intersect are all . Since these angles are vertical angles, if one is 90°, all four are 90°!
