    More Maths :(

    Hey,

    Im stuck with maths again lol,

    Please could someone list as many properties of a Quadrilateral and Rhombus as you can think of, i have only been able to recall 2:

    Quad:

    opposite sides are parralel
    has 4 sides.

    Rhombus:

    Diagnols are perpendicular.
    Is a form of a parrelagram.

    I will really appriciate any help,

    Cheers
    TNT (sorry for and spelling probs, lol i aint good at maths)

    Rhombus:

    -Diagonals are perpendicular
    -Diagonal bisects a pair of opposite angles // this is the one you didn't have
    -It's a parralellogram (sp?)
    -Four congruent sides // another you didnt have

    >> opposite sides are parralel << for the Quad

    This is wrong. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral and only has a pair of parallel sides.
