Let the point if intersection of diagonals be O.
We know that diagonals of rhombus each other at 90°
Then, BO=OD=16/2=8cm
Now, in ∆ AOB,
AB²=OB²+AO²
=> AO²= AB²-AO²
=> AO²= 10²-8²=36=6²
=> AO=6cm
Therefore, AC= 2AO= 2×6= 12cm

given:-
ABCD is a rhombus
AB =10cm
diagonal BD=16 cm
Let
The point if intersection of diagonals be O.
➡We know that diagonals of rhombus bisect each other at 90°
Then, BO=OD=16/2=8cm
Now, in ∆ AOB,
AB²=OB²+AO²{using pythagoream theorem}
=> AO²= AB²-AO²
=> AO²= 10²-8²=36=6²
=> AO=6cm
Therefore, AC= 2AO= 2×6= 12cm ↩
