Question

8. The area of a rhombus is 28 m². Ifits perimeter is 28 m, find its altitude.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

8cm is the altitude of the rhombus

Answer 2

Answer:  4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rhombus = 28 m = 4 x its side

So, its side = 28 m / 4 = 7 m

Now, since rhombus is a parallelogram and area of a parallelogram is equal

to its base x altitude ,

Area of rhombus = 28 m^2 = base x altitude

So, 28 m^2 = 7 m x altitude

Hence, altitude = 28 m^2 / 7 m = 4 m

Thus, this is the answer.
