Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

the definition of a rhombus is a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides so we just have to either prove all the sides are equal or that two or more sides are not equal.

to do this use the distance formula: [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

  • HI=5 (it's a horizontal line so it's just |-8-(-3)|=5
  • HK=[tex]\sqrt{(-8+9)^2+(8-2)^2}[/tex]=[tex]\sqrt{1+36}[/tex]=[tex]\sqrt{37}[/tex] it isn't equal

HIJK is a parallelogram but not a rhombus
