Hope it helped you.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area=96 cm sq.
Diagonal=16cm
Since a rhombus has equal diagonals so the length of diagonal is 8 cm.
Area of rhombus= 1/2* d1 *d2
96 = 1/2 * 16*d2
d2 = 12 cm
Length of diagonal 2 is 12 cm.
Half of this diagonal is 6 cm.
Now pythagoras th.
h2 = p2 + b2
h2 = (6)2 + (8)2
h2 = 36 + 64
h2 = 100
h = √100
h = 10 cm
So we got one side.
The sides of rhombus are all equal.
Perimeter of rhombus = 4*Side
= 4 * 10
= 40 cm
Perimeter is 40 cm.
