Question

Check my answer!
Explain, using complete sentences, at least two similarities and differences between a rhombus and a square.
Similarities: have congruent sides and there sides add up to equal 360*
Differences... I am not sure in the lesson I read it didn't talk about there differences. can you please help

Answer 1

that actually was suppose to say there angles add up to 360* my bad

Answer 2

similarities:they have 4 sides
there angles is equal to 360

Answer 3

how can you tell the differences? do they have obvious differences

Answer 4

ya of course; rhombus don't have right angles as square btw all angles sum 360 same as square

Answer 5

there is one difference about diagonals too:)

Answer 6

The difference is a rhombus is made up of 2 acute and 2 obtuse angles and a square is made up of 4 right angles. On a square, both of the diagonals equal each other, but on a rhombus the diagonals can equal each other, but it's possible for them to not equal each other.

Answer 7

rhombus' diagonal aren't equal but for square they are equal

Answer 8

A similarity is that if you tilt a square it turns into a rhombus. Another similarity is that they are both Quadrangles. Another difference is that Rhombus lines are slanted.

Answer 9

ya @nitz is right.
for facts checking & searching u must keep the title of question for google or yahoo:)

Answer 10

The following statements refer to both a rhombus and a square:

-- The figure is a quadrilateral (has four sides).

-- All four of the figure's sides are equal.

-- Opposite sides of the figure are parallel.

-- The figure has four angles.

-- Opposite angles are equal.

-- The sum of the interior angles is 360 degrees.

Note that a square is one special case of a rhombus.

Answer 11

i didnt get you maheshmeghwal???????? what did you say to me...........

Answer 12

so one of the differences are a square has right angles and a rhombas has acute and obtuse angles I am just making sure I am following you correctly

Answer 13

yes

Answer 14

can I ask another quick question

Answer 15

"On a square, both of the diagonals equal each other, but on a rhombus the diagonals can equal each other, but it's possible for them to not equal each other."
