When you say equal, you mean the side length?

Exactly

So I am basically asking if all rhombuses are parallelograms.

mendicant_bias · Answer

Alright, then the answer should be yes; Any rectangle is a special case of a parallelogram, in the same way that a circle is a special case of an ellipse, a sphere is a special case of an ellipsoid, a square is a special case of a rectangle, and a cube is a special case of a right-rectangular prism.

This "special case" thing is common for other kinds of objects (as mentioned above) in general. So yup. All rhombuses are parallelograms.
