Viereck mit gleichlangen Seiten

AI overview

A rhombus is a four-sided shape where all four sides are equal in length and opposite sides are parallel to each other. It's a useful geometric form that includes the square as a special case and serves as a building block for understanding other shapes like kites and parallelograms.
