Solution

No, if the diagonals of the quadrilateral are perpendicular to each other then such quadrilateral is not always a rhombus.
as you know conditions of rhombus
1. it should be parallelogram.
2. all sides should be equal.
3. diagonals are perpendicular to each other.

but here given only " diagonals of the quadrilateral are perpendicular to each other."
hence, we can't say given quadrilateral is always rhombus.
