A field is in the form of a rhombus whose area is 216cm2 and height is 16cm. Find the area of a square field whose side is equal to the height of the rhombus. Also, find the difference in their perimeters.]
Answers
given :-
area of the rhombus shaped field = 216cm²
it's height = 16cm
formula to find the area of a rhombus shaped field is base × height where base is the side of the rhombus.
➡ base × height = 216cm²
➡ base × 16 = 216cm²
➡ base = 216/16
➡ base = 13.5cm
therefore the side of the rhombus is 13.5cm.
it's perimeter = 4 × side
= 4 × 13.5
= 54cm
now ATQ,
we've to find the area of a square field whose side = height of the rhombus
➡ side of the square field = 16cm
it's area = side × side
= 16 × 16
= 256cm²
it's perimeter = 4 × side
= 4 × 16
= 64cm
we can clearly see that the perimeter of square field is greater by = 64 - 54 = 10cm
hence, the difference between their perimeter is 10cm.

Given—
Area of the rhombus = 216cm²
height = 16cm
We know that
Area of rhombus = base× height
=>base × height = 216cm²
=> base × 16 = 216cm²
=> base = 216/16
=> base = 13.5cm
therefore the side of the rhombus is 13.5cm.
Perimeter of rhombus = 4 × side
= 4 × 13.5
= 54cm
A/q
we've to find the area of a square field whose side = height of the rhombus
=> side of the square field = 16cm
area of square = side × side
= 16 × 16
= 256cm²
perimeter of square = 4 × side
= 4 × 16
= 64cm
Therefore the difference between perimeter of square and rhombus= 64 - 54 = 10cm
