what is the difference between a rhombus and a diamond ? please also show the diagrams

A rhombus is a shape with four diagonal sides of the same length. It is often called a diamond or a kite. The area of a rhombus can be found by multiplying the length of a side (the base) by the distance between a base and it's opposite base (the altitude). When tipped on its side, a rhombus actually has the top angle slightly behind the bottom angle.
