Notice how the four sides remain the same length and the opposite sides remain parallel. A rhombus is actually just a special type of parallelogram. Recall that in a parallelogram each pair of opposite sides are equal in length. With a rhombus, all four sides are the same length.It therefore has all the properties of a parallelogram. See Definition of a parallelogram. Its a bit like a square that can 'lean over' and the interior angles need not be 90Â°. Sometimes called a 'diamond' or 'lozenge' shape.
