A rhombus is a quadrilateral that has two pairs.

Answer 2

'Sometimes' is the correct option

Explanation:

We are given the statement,

'A kite is a rhombus'.

We know that,

Rhombus - is a parallelogram whose all four sides are equal and opposite angles are equal.

Kite - is a quadrilateral having two equal length adjacent sides and the angles where the pair of adjacent sides meet are equal.

So, we get that,

Hence, 'A kite is sometimes a rhombus'.
