G.GCO.10 Rhombus Template
The applet below contains a quadrilateral that ALWAYS remains a rhombus.
The purpose of this applet is to help you understand many of the geometric properties a rhombus has. The questions you need to answer are displayed below this applet.
Questions:
1) Is a rhombus a parallelogram? Explain why or why not.
2) Are opposite sides of a rhombus congruent?
3) Are opposite angles of a rhombus congruent?
4) Do the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other?
5) Does a diagonal of a rhombus bisect a pair of opposite angles?
6) Are the diagonals of a rhombus perpendicular?
7) Are the diagonals of a rhombus congruent?
