Question

Roy has a rhombus-shaped plot. Which of the following statements are true about the shape of the plot?
1.The opposite sides are parallel.
2.The base angles are equal.
3.The diagonals are perpendicular.
4.The opposite angles are equal.

• A. Statements 1, 2, and 4 are correct.
  
• B. Statements 1, 3, and 4 are correct.
  
• C. Statements 2, 3, and 4 are correct.
  
• D. Statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct.
  

Answer 1

The correct option is B Statements 1, 3, and 4 are correct.



The opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel to each other.
The base angles sum up to ${180}^{\circ }$, thus are supplementary angles. They are not equal until the angles are ${90}^{\circ }$.
The diagonals of a rhombus make ${90}^{\circ }$, thus are perpendicular to each other.
The opposite angles of a rhombus are also equal.
Hence, statements 1, 3, and 4 are correct.
