Answer check?Or a little help please?

Alan is drawing a geometric figure. He first constructs two diagonals that are perpendicular and bisect each other.

What else does Alan need to know about the diagonals to determine whether the quadrilateral will be a square or a rhombus? Explain your answer using complete sentences.

I was going to say that he'll need to know if the diagonals are congruent or perpendicular but that was just a guess x.x

Here are the properties of quadrilaterals http://www.lavcmath.com/shin/quadrilaterals.pdf You said "the diagonals are congruent or perpendicular" they tell you the diagonals are perpendicular, so that isn't "what else" but the difference between a rhombus and a square is that a squares diagonals are congruent. (try drawing a rhombus " a squished square")

anonymous · Answer

ohh yeah i just realized that x_x so should i say that he needs to know whether the diagonals are congruent in length or have different lengths.Since the diagonals of a square are congruent in length , and the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular and do not have the same length??
