Detailed Solution

Given statement is all rhombuses are squares.
As we know the Rhombus has 4 sides that are all equal length and opposite sides are parallel and opposite angles are equal.
Question Image

In the above figure, MNOP is a rhombus in which opposite angles are equal.

∠ M = ∠ O ∠ P = ∠ N

Also, square has 4 sides which are equal in length, and also every interior angle is a right angle (90°)
Question Image

In the above figure, ABCD is a square in which all sides are equal and all angles are right angles.
So, we conclude that all rhombuses are not squares because the angle of the rhombus is not a right angle and the statement is false.
Hence, option 2 is correct.
