Perimeter of a rhombus = 80 m (given)
We know, Perimeter of a rhombus = 4 x side
Let a be the side of a rhombus.
4 x a = 80
a = 20
One of the diagonal,
AC = 24 m (given)
Therefore OA = 1/2 x AC
OA = 12
In △AOB,
Using Pythagoras theorem:
OB² = AB² − OA²
= 20² −12²
= 400 – 144
= 256
OB = 16
Since diagonal of rhombus bisect each other at 90 degrees.
And OB = OD
Therefore, BD = 2 OB
= 2 x 16 = 32 m
Area of rhombus = 1/2 x BD x AC
= 1/2 x 32 x 24
= 384
Hence, Area of rhombus = 384 m²
