How can we define and construct a rhombus? [br]This dynamic worksheet shows students the steps necessary to take in order to construct a rhombus. Students can see how circle construction and intersection points create equal lengths.
What is the definition of a rhombus? [br]Construct a rhombus using points, circles,line segments, and intersection points. [br][br]hint: If you are unsure of how to construct a rhombus, the steps are listed below:[br]Draw segment AB.[br]Draw a circle around A going through point B.[br]Choose a point C on the circle. [br]Draw line segment AC.[br]Draw a circle around C going through point A. [br]Draw a circle around B going through point A. [br]Label the intersection of circle C and B point D. [br]Draw line segment BD and CD. [br]Hide Circle constructions. [br][br]To check that it is a rhombus, drag point A and make sure that the side lengths are equal respective to dilation.
