Rhombus

Written by Jerry Ratzlaff on . Posted in Plane Geometry

• Rhombus (a two-dimensional figure) is a parallelogram with four congruent sides.
• Acute angle measures less than 90°.
• Congruent is all sides having the same lengths and angles measure the same.
• Diagonal is a line from one vertices to another that is non adjacent.
• Inscribed circle is the largest circle possible that can fit on the inside of a two-dimensional figure.
• Obtuse angle measures more than 90°.
• Parallelogram (a two-dimensional figure) is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel opposite sides.
• a ∥ c
• b ∥ d
• a = b = c = d
• ∠A & ∠C < 90°
• ∠B & ∠D > 90°
• ∠A + ∠B = 180°
• ∠C + ∠D = 180°
• 4 angle
• 2 diagonals
• 4 edges
• 4 vertexs
