| 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 | |
Construct a circle centered at C and has radius AB. |
| 6 |  |
Generate the intersection point between the constructed circle at C and the perpendicular line through B to get the fourth point of the rhombus D. |
| 7 |  |
Join up the four points A, B, C, and D to get the required rhombus. |
| 8 |  |

| Construction Theorems | ||
| A rhombus is a parallelogram
in which two adjacent sides are equal in length. The two diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other. |
