| Construction Algorithm | ||
| 1 |  |
Construct a line AB as a given base of the rhombus. |
| 2 | |
Construct the line BC so that AB = BC. |
| 3 | |
Construct the diagonal AC. |
| 4 | |
Construct a perpendicular line to AC through the point B. |
| 5 | |
Generate the intersection point between the perpendicular line through B and the line AC at M. |
| 6 | |
Construct a circle centered at M and has radius MB. |
| 7 | |
Generate the intersection between the circle and the perpendicular line through the point B at D. |
| 8 | |
Join up the four points A, B, C, and D to get the required rhombus. |
| 9 | |
Switch to drag mode. Pick a free element. Move it around to check your construction. |

A rhombus is a parallelogram
in which two adjacent sides are equal in length. |
