Area: ½ x (product of the lengths of the diagonals)
Perimeter: 4 x side
Number of vertices: 4
Number of edges: 4
Properties: Isotoxal figure, Convex polygon
Type: Parallelogram, Quadrilateral, Kite
Line of symmetry: 2
In plane Euclidean geometry, a rhombus (plural rhombi or rhombuses) is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length. Another name is equilateral quadrilateral, since equilateral means that all of its sides are equal in length. The rhombus is often called a diamond, after the diamonds suit in playing cards which resembles the projection of an octahedral diamond, or a lozenge, though the former sometimes refers specifically to a rhombus with a 60° angle (which some authors call a calisson after the French sweet – also see Polyiamond), and the latter sometimes refers specifically to a rhombus with a 45° angle.
