☞ All the sides are 7.5 cm
✭ Diagonals of a rhombus are 9 cm and 12 cm
☆ Its sides?
Let AC = 9 cm and BD = 12 cm
We know that,
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, i.e., 90°
Therefore,
➢ AO = OC = 4.5 cm
➢ BO = OD = 6 cm
Now, In ΔBOC,
➳ BO = 8 cm
➳ OC = 6 cm
➳
Using Pythagoras theorem,
BC² = BO² + OC²
➝ BC² = (4.5)² + 6²
➝ BC² = 20.25 + 36
➝ BC² = 56.25
➝ BC = √56.25
