The rhombus has a square as a special case, and is a special case of a kite and parallelogram. In plane Euclidean geometry , a rhombus ( pl. : rhombi or rhombuses ) is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length.
The golden rhombus. In geometry, a golden rhombus is a rhombus whose diagonals are in the golden ratio: [1] = = + Equivalently, it is the Varignon parallelogram formed from the edge midpoints of a golden rectangle. [1]
In geometry, a rhombohedron (also called a rhombic hexahedron [1] [2] or, inaccurately, a rhomboid [a]) is a special case of a parallelepiped in which all six faces are congruent rhombi. [3]
Rhombic may refer to: . Rhombus, a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length (often called a diamond); Rhombic antenna, a broadband directional antenna most commonly used on shortwave frequencies
A root-phi rectangle divides into a pair of Kepler triangles (right triangles with edge lengths in geometric progression). The root-φ rectangle is a dynamic rectangle but not a root rectangle. Its diagonal equals φ times the length of the shorter side. If a root-φ rectangle is divided by a diagonal, the result is two congruent Kepler triangles.
Any square, rectangle, isosceles trapezoid, or antiparallelogram is cyclic. A kite is cyclic if and only if it has two right angles – a right kite. A bicentric quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrilateral that is also tangential and an ex-bicentric quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrilateral that is also ex-tangential.
A square can also be defined as a parallelogram with equal diagonals that bisect the angles. If a figure is both a rectangle (right angles) and a rhombus (equal edge lengths), then it is a square. A square has a larger area than any other quadrilateral with the same perimeter. [7]
