QUAD has sides QU=4, UA=4 and AD=4 QD must be a rhombus

Ensuring that all sides of quadrilateral QUAD are equal in length and that opposite angles are congruent would confirm that the quadrilateral is a rhombus.

A rhombus is a straightforward quadrilateral known by all four sides being of equal length. In this scenario, with sides UA and AD both measuring 4 inches, it follows that sides QU and QD will also share this identical length.

Therefore, quadrilateral QUAD must be a rhombus. Consequently, the length of QU is also 4, making all four sides of the rhombus congruent.

See correct text below

Sides QU and DA of quadrilateral QUAD are parallel. Sides UA and DA each measure 4 inches. What additional information would guarantee that quadrilateral QUAD is a rhombus?
