It doesn't have to, but it can. When it does, it's called a "square".

What shape is a squshed square without any right angles?
A rhombus
How many right angles are there in a rhombus?
A rhombus normally has no right angles (at the vertices). If a rhombus has right angles (at the vertices), it is called a square. The diagonals of a rhombus meet at right angles.
What is a shape with 4 equal lengths and four right angles?
That shape is a square. A square is a special kind of rhombus, and a rhombus is aspecial kind of parallelogram. So the shape described in the question is a square,a rhombus, and a parallelogram.ALSO . . . any polygon with more than four sides can have four equal sidesand four right angles.
What shape has 4 right angles and opposite sides are congruent?
square any rectangle (including any square)
Has a rhombus got any right angles?
If the rhombus is a square, it has 4 right angles. otherwise, no.
Does A square has 4 right angles but a rhombus does not always have 4 right angles?
Yes a square always has 4 right angles but a rhombus never has any right angles.
How many right angles are there in a rombose?
A rhombus doesn't need any right angles to be a rhombus, although it can have them if it wants to. If a rhombus has right angles, then it's a square. And if it has one right angle, then it must have four of them.
Do a rhombus have any right angles?
The purpose for this question determines the which of the three answers is most accurate.1. A rhombus is defined as "four-sided shape [quadrilateral] where all sides have equal length. Also opposite sides are parallel and opposite angles are equal. ... " As such, a "traditional" rhombus would look like a square that is "leaning" to one side or another. This particular rhombus would have NO right angles.2. A third portion of the definition above is " the diagonals [lines that connect two opposite angles] of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles." So, the point of intersection of the diagonals produces four right angles for purposes that are beyond the scope of this question and answer.3. Based on the definitions of a quadrilateral and rhombus, a square is, therefore, a rhombus. As a result, a rhombus that is a square has FOUR right angles in its shape and four right angles at the point of intersection of its diagonals.
Does a rombus have any right angles?
A Rhombus with right angles is known as a square. At least that's the way it's written in the definition. Yes, to answer your question, a rhombus can have right angles.
What quadrilaterals have 4 congruent sides and 4 congruent angles?
A rhombus is a quadrilateral whose four sides are congruent. Squares are a type of rhombus with congruent angles. Since there are 4 contruent angles, they must all be right angles.So any quadrilateral that is equilateral is a rhombus and any rhombus with 4 right angles is a square. Every rhombus is a parallelogram because the opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent. Also, the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular.
How is a rhombus different from a quadrilateral?
It is no different from a quadrilateral.A quadrilateral is any shape with four sides and a rhombus has four sides, therefore it is a quadrilateral.
Does a diamond have any right angles?
A diamond is also known as a rhombus. A rhombus can have right angles except that it then also becomes a square.
