What is a Rhombus


The most common question I get on my blog is if a rhombus is a square.
Here is the answer:

A rhombus is not a square, but a square is a special type of rhombus.
A rhombus is defined as a 4 sided shape with all 4 sides equal in length.
A square is the same as a rhombus, but all sides are at 90deg (right) angles.
