Answer:
Area of a rhombus = product of its diagonals
\begin{gathered} = 1/2*6 \: \times \: 8 \\ = 24 \: {cm}^{2} \\ \: since \: diagonals \: of \: rhombus \: bisect \\ \: each \: other \: at \: right \: angles. \\ therefore \\ side \: of \: rhombus \: = \sqrt{ ( { \frac{6}{2} })^{2} + ( { \frac{8}{2} })^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{{3}^{2} + {4}^{2} } \: \\ = \sqrt{9 + 16 } \\ = \sqrt{25} \\ = 5 \: cm \: \\ thus \: the \:lenght \: of \: side \: of \\ \: rhombus \: is \: 5 \: cm.\end{gathered}
