Answer 1

Marti is NOT correct, a rhombus is not a kite.

Explanation:

A rhombus is not a kite, all sides of a rhombus are equal, all sides of a kite are NOT equal.

There are various differences between a rhombus and a kite.

Answer 2

Marty is correct.

Explanation:

Marty is correct. A rhombus is a quadrilateral with four congruent sides, which also makes it a parallelogram, since it has opposite sides parallel. Additionally, a rhombus is a kite, since it has two pairs of adjacent congruent sides. Therefore, a rhombus meets the definition of a parallelogram and a kite, and Marty's statement is valid.
