    C) A rhombus has four side that are the same length.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    A rectangle has a length of 20 cm and a width of 15 cm.

    Length = 20 cm

    Width = 15 cm

    We need to explain why the rectangle is NOT a rhombus.

    Now according to properties of Rhombus which are given below;

    ⇒All sides have equal length

    ⇒Opposite sides are parallel, and opposite angles are equal (it is a Parallelogram).

    ⇒The altitude is the distance at right angles to two sides

    ⇒And the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.

    Since size of rectangle are length is 20 cm and width is 15 cm hence it is not a rhombus as Rhombus have all sides equal.

    Hence Option C) A rhombus has four side that are the same length.
