Question

The diagnols of a rhombus are 8cm and 6cm. Find the length of each side of the rhombus.

Answer 1

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Diagonal 6cm = 3cm + 3cm = legs of right triangle within rhombus. 

Diagonal 8cm = 4cm + 4cm = legs of right triangle within rhombus. 

We need to find the side of the rhombus using the Pythagorean Theorem. 

After that, we use the formula P = 4s to find your perimeter. 

Let s = side of rhombus. 

3^2 + 4^2 = s^2 

9 + 16 = s^2 

25 = s^2 

5 = s 

Therefore,

The side of rhombus is 5cm

Answer 2

Answer:

D1 = 8cm

D2 =6cm

Area= 1/2×D1 ×D2

1/2 × 8 × 6

4 ×6

24cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to write down the givens then write the area of the rhombus. Then we have to put the values and divide 8 by 2 we get 4 and then multiply. We will get the answer easily.
