​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rhombus

Solve for side

a=8.5cm

p Diagonal

8

cm

q Diagonal

15

cm

Solution

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram can be draw as following :

Diagonals of a rhombus , d1=8cm,d2=15cm

By dividing d1 and d2 in two equal halves we get four right angled triangles.

Now the base of each triangle would be d1/2=8/2=4cm

Perpendicular = d2/2 = 15/2 = 7.5cm

Hypotenuse = side of rhombus

Hypotenuse^2 = perpendicular^2 + base^2

H ^2 =7.5^2 +16

H=56.25+16

H= √72.25

H=8.5cm
