Question

the area of a rhombus is 96 square meters, if its perimeter is 32 meters find its altitude.

Answer 1

Answer: 12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 32

4b              = 32

b                 = 32/4  =  8 m

Area of rhombus = b × h

bh               = 96 m^2

8h                =  96 m^2

h                  =  96/8  = 12 m

Answer 2

Answer:

Perimeter = 28m.

Side = 28÷4 =7

Now , Area = 56m2

Let the height be h m. So,

Area = b×h.

56 = 7 × h

h = 56 ÷7

.•. h = 8 m

altitude =8m
