Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A: In a rhombus, the diagonals bisect opposite angles.

It is always true.

Option B : In a rhombus, the diagonals are perpendicular.

It is always True.

Option C : . In a rhombus, the diagonals are congruent.

It is not always true. If the diagonals become congruent then It becomes square.

Option D:  In a rhombus, all four sides are congruent.

It is always True.

Hence Option C is the statement which is not always true.

The correct option is C, the diagonals don't need to be congruent.

Which statement is not always true?

A rhombus is a quadrilateral where the four sides have the same length, such that opposite sides are parallel.

So with that definition, we already know that the diagonals bisect at opposite angles, the diagonals are perpendicular and the four sides measure the same (so the 4 sides are congruent).

What happens if the diagonals are congruent?

The only case where the diagonals are congruent is when all the angles measure exactly the same. That is the case for a square, a special rhombus. But there is a lot of other rhombs where this is not true.

So the correct option is C.
