Solution

The correct option is A Yes
Given : AB=4cm
Diagonal intersect at O and OAB=60o ....... (1)
Draw side AB of 4cm.
In a rhombus, all sides are equal and diagonals bisect the opposite angles
From (1) we get, A=120o
B=60o ........... (Adjacent angles are supplementary)
Draw a side AD from A of 4cm such that BAD=120o
Now, from D, draw side DC=4cm such that ADC=60o
And then join BC such that BC=4cm and DCB=120o.
At last we get a rhombus ABCD with length of each side is 4 cm and diagonals AC and BD.
Hence, we can construct a rhombus with AB=4 cm.
