Question

Find the area of a rhombus one site of which measures 20 cm and diagonal 24 cm

Open in App
Solution

Consider 1 triangle formed when both diagonals are drawn.

side ^ 2 = (1/2 diagonal 1)^2 + (1/2 diagonal 2)^2
400 = 144 + (1/2 diag 2) ^2
=> diag 2 = 32.

diag 1 = 24.

Area = 24 x 16 = 384.
