Key property: The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles (90 degrees), forming four congruent right triangles.

Rhombus formulas: All four sides are equal. Area = (d1 x d2) / 2 using diagonals, or Area = side squared x sin(angle). Perimeter = 4 x side. The diagonals bisect each other at right angles. Side can be calculated from diagonals: side = sqrt((d1/2)^2 + (d2/2)^2).
A rhombus (also called a diamond) is a quadrilateral with all four sides equal in length. It is a special type of parallelogram. The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles (90 degrees) and also bisect the vertex angles. Opposite angles are equal, and consecutive angles are supplementary. A square is a special rhombus where all angles are 90 degrees.
Rhombus formulas: All four sides are equal. Area = (d1 x d2) / 2 using diagonals, or Area = side squared x sin(angle). Perimeter = 4 x side. The diagonals bisect each other at right angles. Side can be calculated from diagonals: side = sqrt((d1/2)^2 + (d2/2)^2).

The area of a rhombus can be calculated as: Area = (d1 x d2) / 2 using both diagonals, or Area = side^2 x sin(angle) using the side and one of the angles.
Since the diagonals bisect each other at right angles, each forms a right triangle with half of each diagonal. Use: side = sqrt((d1/2)^2 + (d2/2)^2).
The diagonals of a rhombus: (1) bisect each other at right angles (90 degrees), (2) bisect the vertex angles, and (3) divide the rhombus into four congruent right triangles.
A rhombus is also a square when all four angles are right angles (90 degrees). This happens when both diagonals are equal in length.
Opposite angles of a rhombus are equal. Consecutive angles are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees). If one angle is A, the adjacent angle is (180-A).
The inscribed circle (incircle) of a rhombus has radius r = Area / (perimeter/2) = Area / (2s) = height / 2, where s is the side length.
