Question

The area of a rhombus is 119 cm and its perimeter is 56 cm. Find its altitude.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 56 cm , area A = 119 cm²

Area of rhombus = base × altitude

base = p/4 => 56/4 => 14 cm

Area A => 119 = 14 × altitude

therefore altitude h = 119/4 cm

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

points to be noted -we know all sides of a rhombus are equal And rhombus is also a parllelogram .so we can also use the formula (base×height) to find the area of rhombus .

Perimeter =56cm

each side -56/4=14cm

Base ×height=area

14×height =119

height=119/4=29.7cm
