Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,
Perimeter of rhombus = 80m
One diagonal = 24m
Assume,
PQRS be rhombus and diagonal QS = 24m
So,
Area of ∆QRS = Area of ∆PQS
Perimeter of rhombus (PQRS) = 4 × side
80 = 4 × side
Side = 80/4
Side = 20 m
Side (PQ = QR = RS = SP)
= 20 m
So,
Semi perimeter = (a + b + c)/2
ΔQRS(s) = (20 + 20 + 24)/2
s = 64/2 m
s = 32 m
So,
Using heron formula :-
Area of ΔQRS,
A = √s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)
A = √32(32 - 20) × (32 - 20) × (32 - 24)
A = √32 × 12 × 12 × 8
A = √(32 × 8) × (12 × 12)
A = √256 × (12 × 12)
A = √(16 × 16) × (12 × 12)
A = 16 × 12
A = 192 m²
Area of ΔQRS = 192 m²
Area of ΔQRS = Area of ΔPQS = 192 m²
Area of rhombus PQRS :-
= 2 × Area of ∆QRS
= 2 × 192
= 384 m²
Therefore,
Area of rhombus = 384 m²
