hey frnd here you go
A = base * altitude
we don't know the base, we can find the length of the base from the perimeter, perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the sides, the sides of a rhombus are equal
perimeter = 4 * length of one side
32 cm = 4 * length of one side
divide both sides by 4
32 cm / 4 = (4 * length of one side) / 4
8cm = length of one side
common sense, the base is equal to 8 cm
I hope it helps
A = base * altitude
96 = 8 * altitude
divide both sides by 8
12 cm = altitude
A = base * altitude

p=4×side
32=4×side
side=8
area=base×height
96=8× height
height =12cm
32=4×side
side=8
area=base×height
96=8× height
height =12cm
