What is the area of the rhombus ABCD below if AC = 6 cm, and BE = 4cm ?(a) 36 cm2 (b) 16 cm2 (c) 24 cm2 (d) 13 cm2

Answer»

The correct answer is option (c) 24 cm2

Explanation:

From the given figure, the diagonal AC divides the rhombus into two triangles of equal area.

Therefore, the area of a triangle ABC = (1/2) bh

= (1/2) (4) (6)

=12 cm2

Therefore, the area of a rhombus ABCD = 2(12) = 24 cm2
