Question

Area of a rhombus is 48 cmsq , its perimeter is 20 cm. Find its height.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey mate here is your answer:

Since the sides of a rhombus are equal and the perimeter (=sum of sides )= 20 cm, each side is 5 cm.

And also since rhombus is a special type of parallelogram, we can use the latter’s formula.

A = base x height i.e., 48 = 5 x height. So height = 48/5 = 9.6 cms

Therefore the height of the rhombus = 9.6 cms.

Hope it helps you.
