in rhombus all side are equal
and diagonal are also equal
so AC is equal to BD
so BD is 16cm
and diagonal are also equal
so AC is equal to BD
so BD is 16cm

Given :ABCD is a rhombus
All sides measures 17cm
AC ( diagonal) = 16cm
In triangle BCD
By Pythagores Theorem
BD^2 = DC^2 + BC^2
( Hypotenuse square = base
square + perpendicular square)
BD^2 = 17^2 + 17^2
BD ^2 = 289 + 289
BD^2 = 578
BD = √ 578
BD= 24.04
Hope it helps
