Igneous rock can become sedimentary if it is weathered into sediment and then lithified.
Most of it you got right. Have you ever heard of something called the rock cycle? If you have, good. If you haven't, here is a link to an excellent diagram: http://www.emporia.edu/earthsci/student/henderson1/rock_cycle.gif Anyway, if you look at the diagram, you can see how igneous rock can transform into sediment, then sedimentary rock, or bypass sedimentary rock altogether and go to metamorphic rock. Sedimentary rock can turn into metamorphic rock with heat and pressure. However, to turn into igneous rock from sedimentary rock, it will have to melt down into magma/lava before becoming igneous rock once again.
In order to get an igneous rock from a sedimentary rock, the sedimentary rock must be melted and then that melt must crystallize.
Not every rock goes through the entire rock cycle in a linear progression from igneous to sedimentary to metamorphic and back to igneous. The rock cycle is more complex, with rocks undergoing various processes depending on environmental conditions. For instance, an igneous rock may weather and erode into sediment, forming sedimentary rock, but it doesn't necessarily have to transform into metamorphic rock. Additionally, rocks can be recycled in different ways, such as sedimentary rocks melting into magma or metamorphic rocks being directly uplifted and eroded.
No, high pressure alone cannot change an igneous rock into sedimentary rock; however, the reverse is true. High pressure can change sedimentary rock into igneous rock.

No. Igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks are three different categories of rock.
The sedimentary rocks would have to melt and cool again to make an igneous rock.
No, it's not a sedimentary rock, it is an igneous rock. :)

Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)

False Sedimetary rocks can be formed from changes in igneous rock, and igneous rock can be from changes in sedimentary rock.
Obsidian is an igneous rock.
sedimentary rock.
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock
