Question

the diagnals of a rhombus measure 16 cm and 30 cm .find its perimeter

Answer 1

Answer:

68

Step-by-step explanation:

diagonals are perpendicular in rhombus

and they bisect each other

so there are 4 congruent right angled triangles formed

their sides =16/2,30/2

                 =8 and 15

the hypotenuse²=8²+15²

                         =64+225

                          =289

hypotenuse=17cm

in rhombus all sides are equal

so perimeter=17*4

                     =68
