The diagonals bisect each other at right angles. So by Pythagoras Theorem, we concluded :-

a² = (x/2)² + (y/2)²

Where a is the side and x and y are the two diagonals.
So let's substitute the value.

=> a² = (20/2)² + (48/2)²

=> a² = (10)² + (24)²

=> a² = 100 + 576

=> a² = 676

=> a = √676

=> a = 26 cm


Answer :- 26 cm

Mankuthemonkey01: The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, ok?
Mankuthemonkey01: So the rhombus would be divided into four triangles. In that triangle, one angle would be right angle, as the diagonals bisect at right angle. The two sides would be half of diagonals and side would be hypotenuse

Use this formula:  


= \bf\huge\sqrt{\frac{d}{(2)^{2} } } + \sqrt\bf\huge\frac{d}{(2)^{2} }


= \bf\huge\sqrt{\frac{(20}{(2})^{2} + \frac{(48}{(2})^{2}


= \bf\huge\sqrt{(10)^{2}+(24)^{2}}


= \bf\huge\sqrt{100 + 576}


=\bf\huge\sqrt{676}


= 26 cm


\bf\huge\boxed{\boxed{\:Side\:of\:rhombus\:=\:26\:cm}}}
