The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the properties of the diagonals of a rhombus, let's analyze the characteristics of a rhombus and its diagonals step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding a Rhombus**: - A rhombus is a type of quadrilateral where all four sides are of equal length. 2. **Identifying the Diagonals**: - In a rhombus, there are two diagonals. Let's denote them as AC and BD. 3. **Properties of Diagonals in a Rhombus**: - The diagonals of a rhombus have specific properties: - They bisect each other, meaning they cut each other into two equal parts. - They intersect at right angles (90 degrees). 4. **Conclusion**: - Based on the properties discussed, we can conclude that the correct option regarding the diagonals of a rhombus is: **They always bisect each other at a right angle.** ### Final Answer: - The diagonals of a rhombus always bisect each other at a right angle. ---
