Rhombus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A rhombus is a parallelogram (four-sided polygon where opposite sides are parallel) with all sides equal in length. A rhombus with all angles equal is called a square. A rhombus is usually tilted on its side. It comes from the Greek word rhombos, meaning "spinning top".[1]
