Answer:
6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Side of a rhombus = 5 cm
Altitude = 4.8 cm
As we know that a rhombus is also a parallelogram, we can use the formula for calculating its area.
Area of a parallelogram = 1/2 x sum of parallel sides x distance between them
Area of given rhombus = 1/2 x (5 + 5) x 4.8 cm²
= 5 x 4.8 cm²
= 24 cm²
Now using the formula of area of rhombus, we get,
= 1/2 x product of diagonals
⇒ 1/2 x 8 x d = 24
⇒ d = 6 cm
Hope it helps you...
