Melody Wrote: A Rhombus IS a special type of PARALLELOGRAM.  PartialMathematician is correct.

 

OK that’s true, but that is NOT what PartialMathematician wrote.

He wrote, “The parallelogram is a rhombus.” That is not the case here nor anywhere else. 

 

You can know the parallelogram is not a rhombus because the question states the two diagonals of a parallelogram have lengths 6 and 8. If this was a rhombus, they would be the same length. 

 

The diagonals bisect each other forming 4 triangles that have sides of 3 and 4. Then applying the triangle inequality z ≤ x + y that includes the degenerate triangle where z = x + y and appears as a line with zero area, then the unknown side (z) side (x) + side (y) therefore z is longer than either x or y. Then x = 3 is the longest the shortest side can be, or x < 3 is the longest the shortest side can be excluding the degenerate triangle with zero area.  

 

This proves PartialMathematician is wrong and he is still a dumb F u c k F a c e and he would be one even if he were right. 

 

I like your moving parallelogram picture.  It’s a rhombus (special case) when the points are on the y axis.

I might be a F u c k F a c e, but my mother never noticed or at least never said so. There is probably some kind of genetic code that prevents mothers from seeing these kinds of defects in their offspring.   My father didn’t have this genetic code because he sometimes referred to my brother as F u c k F a c e. I was never sure if it was a term of endearment, or if my father thought my brother wasn’t his child. We did look different, so I don’t know. I looked different from my sister too. One main difference was I had much bigger b o o b s, and this p i s s e d her off to no end. She would call me F u c k F a c e when I pointed this out.
