GCSE Maths Practice: triangles-and-quadrilaterals

Question 3 of 10

This question focuses on the properties of a rhombus.

‹ ›

\( \begin{array}{l}\text{Which of the following statements are true for a rhombus?}\end{array} \)

Select all correct options:

Check equal sides, opposite angles, and diagonal intersection for rhombus.

A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides equal. Opposite angles are equal, and the diagonals bisect each other at right angles. Unlike squares, the angles of a rhombus are not necessarily 90°. Recognizing these properties helps classify shapes, solve for unknown angles or sides, and construct diagrams accurately. Rhombuses appear in geometric proofs, tessellations, tiling, and design. Practicing identification and labeling of rhombuses enhances spatial reasoning and understanding of symmetry. Knowledge of rhombus properties is essential for GCSE geometry exams, problem-solving, and real-life applications in architecture and design layouts.
