Answer:
24 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
A rhombus is a geometrical shape having four equal straight sides, with all sides having an equal length. The opposite sides are parallel, and opposite angles are equal. To find the area of a rhombus, multiply the lengths of the two diagonals and divide by 2. Thus,
Length of WY is 3 - (-5) = 8 units.
Length of XZ is 4 - (-2) = 6 units.
The area of rhombus WXYZ is half the product of the lengths of its diagonals, thus -
= 1/2 × 8 × 6
= 24
Therefore. the area of rhombus is 24 square units
