A. Every rhombus is a square
B. Every square is a parallelogram
C. Every parallelogram is rhombus
D. Every rectangle is a square
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Rhombus - A rhombus is a quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel and all four sides are equal in length.
Rectangle - A rectangle is a polygon with 4 sides, such that the opposite sides are equal and parallel to one another, also the measure of all the internal angles in a rectangular shape object is equal to 90 degrees.
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of parallel sides. The opposite sides of every rhombus are parallel, so every rhombus is a parallelogram.
All squares are rhombuses as all sides of a square are of equal lengths. All squares are also rectangles as each internal angle measures 90°
The correct answer is Option (3) → B Only
