Question

The area of a rhombus is 30 m2. if its perimeter is 24 m, find the its height.
(Hint: Rhombus is also a parallelogram with all sides equal). ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Height of the rhombus = 5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rhombus = 30m^2

Perimeter = 24 m

Let the side of the rhombus be x meters

All sides of the rhombus are equal

therefore

x + x + x + x = 24

4x = 24

x = 24 / 4

x = 6 m

Height of the rhombus = area / base

= 30 / 6

= 5m

Height of the rhombus = 5m
