This example demonstrates how students can move quadrilateral vertices to make diagonals bisect the angles, revealing the quadrilateral is a rhombus. Key math concepts include angle bisectors, rhombus properties, and geometric transformations. Constructed using GeoGebra commands Segment, Intersect, and Angle. Suitable for middle school and above students to explore geometric properties and develop spatial reasoning skills.
