Mike is not correct.
Reasons why Mike is not correct:
1. A rhombus is a special type of parallelogram where all sides are equal in length, but not all parallelograms have equal sides. Therefore, not every parallelogram is a rhombus.
2. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides that are parallel, but not necessarily all sides are equal in length as in a rhombus.
