Find the area of a rhombus one side of which measures 20 cm and 01 diagonal 24 cm.

Answer»

Let other diagonal = 2x cm.

Since diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, we have:

(20)² = (12)² + (x)² = (20)² – (12)²= 256= 16 cm.

So, other diagonal = 32 cm.

Area of rhombus = (1/2) x (Product of diagonals) = ((1/2)x 24 x 32) cm² = 384 cm²
