Question

Side of a rhombus and its perimeter are in ______ proportion.

Answer 1

Answer:

1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Side :  perimeter

∴ a   : 4a

= 1:4

Answer 2

Given:

The side of a rhombus = $a$

The perimeter of a rhombus = $4a$

To find:

The proportion of the side of a rhombus and its perimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

Side of a rhombus : Perimeter of a rhombus

                           $a\;:\;4a$

'$a$' is common here, so let us cancel the term '$a$'.

The coefficient of $a$ is $1$ and the coefficient of $4a$ is $4$

                            $1\;:\;4$

The proportion of a rhombus's side and perimeter is $1\;:\;4$

Answer:

The side of a rhombus and its perimeter are in $1\;:\;4$ proportion.
