Answer:
the length of each side of rhombus is 7.5 cm.
Explanation:
Given that ;
Diagonals of a rhombus are 9 cm and 12 cm.
Let AC = 9 cm and BD = 12 cm
We know that,
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, i.e., 90°
Therefore,
AO = OC = 4.5 cm
BO = OD = 6 cm
Now, In ΔBOC,
BO = 8 cm
OC = 6 cm
∠BOC = 90°
Using Pythagoras theorem,
BC² = BO² + OC²
⇒ BC² = (4.5)² + 6²
⇒ BC² = 20.25 + 36
⇒ BC² = 56.25
⇒ BC = √56.25
⇒ BC = 7.5 cm
Also, we know that each side of rhombus is equal.
Hence, the length of each side of rhombus is 7.5 cm.
