Question

Find the altitude of a rhombus of area 224cm^2- and perimeter 56cm.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of rhombus = 224 cm^2

Perimeter = 56 cm

Side = 56 / 4 = 14 cm                                {All sides of rhombus are equal}

As a rhombus is a parallelogram, its area = base x height (altitude)

224 = 14 x altitude

altitude = 224 / 14

altitude = 16 cm
