Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
See the image,this may help you.
Solution:-
• given:-
1)The area of rhombus is 96cm square .
2) one diagonal is 12 cm.
we know all side of rhombus are equal.
let, ac = 1st diagonal = 12 cm and
bd = 2cd diagonal ,
A = Area = 96cm.
=> Area of rhombus = [ac×bd]/2
=> A = [ac×bd]/2
=> 96 = [ 12 × bd ]/2
=> 96×2 = 12 × bd
=> 192 = 12 × bd
=> bd = 192/12
=> bd = 16 cm
•we know,
ac = ao + oc and bd = bo + od
• diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at an angle of 90° or right angle.
means ao = oc = 12/2 = 6 cm &
bo = od = 16/2 = 8 cm.
in Δ aod
by Pythagoras theorem
=> (ad)² = (ao)² + (od) ²
=> (ad)² = (6)² + (8) ²
=> (ad)² = 36 + 64
=> (ad)² = 100
=> ad = √100
=> ad = 10 cm
•Perimeter of rhombus = 4 × sides
•Perimeter of rhombus = 4 × 10
•Perimeter of rhombus = 40 cm
Hence all side of rhombus are 10 cm and perimeter of rhombus is 40 cm
i hope it helps you .
