Answer : 1. "TRUE"
Explanation :

Answer: A) TRUE Explanation: Yes, a square is a rhombus. But a rhombus is not a square unless the interior angles are at right angles.   We know that, a square is a quadrilateral with all sides equal and all the interior angles are 90 deg i.e, at right angles.  Whereas a rhombus is also a quadrilateral with all sides equal but the interior angles are not at right angles. Hence, if the interior angles of a rhombus are all at right angles (90 deg), then it is square.
