All parallelograms have opposite sides congruent, but if all four sides are congruent, it's a rhombus.

In geometry, two sets are called congruent if one can be transformed into the other by an isometry, i.e., a combination of translations, rotations and reflections.

In less formal language, two sets are congruent if they have the same shape and size, but are in different positions (for instance one may be rotated, flipped, or simply moved).

By definition, a parallelogram is a specialized quadrilateral (4 sided figure) with opposite sides congruent ... meaning the same length.

A special version of the parallelogram is the rhombus, in which all sides are the same length.

Parallelogram: 4-sided plane parent: a 4-sided plane parent wherein the two pairs of opposite sides are parallel and of equivalent length, and the choice angles are equivalent Congruent: with an identical shape: with comparable geometric shapes. A congruent geometric parent is two geomitric parent with an identical length of side and comparable length of angles. Parallelogram with all sides congruent is a geometrical figures with equivalent sides and angles. An occasion are 2 sq. the two with equivalent length. Rectangles with equivalent length. desire it facilitates.
