Hey mate
Here your answer
Rhombus formula is =1/2x d1 x d2
= 1/2 x 24 x 32
= 384
= 384 cm

Answer:
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each-other at right angles,with the side of the rhombus being the hypotenuse . Half the lengths of the diagonals AO = 12 cm , BO= 16 cm. and the hypotenuse(AB) in right triangle ABO in rhombus ABCD.
Using Pyhagoras Theorem for the right-angled triangle ABO,
h² = 12² + 16² = 400.
∴ The length of the side of the rhombus is 20 cm.
area of a rhombus = ½×d1×d2
are of a rhombus= base × height
∴ comparing both formulas
½×24×32 = 20×h (base is side of the rhombus)
∴ h= 19.2 cm.
