Step-by-step explanation:
Let ABCD be the rhombus where AC = 16 cm and BD = 12 cm.
Let AC and BD intersect each other at O.
Now, diagonals of rhombus bisect each other at right angles.
Thus, we have ,
AO = 1/2 × AC
= 1/2 × 16
= 8 cm
BO = 1/2 × AD
= 1/2 × 12
= 6 cm
Since AOB is a right angled triangle, by pythagoras theorem, we have,
AB² = AO² + BO²
= 8² + 6²
= 64 + 36
= 100
AB = √100
= 10 cm
Thus, length of each side of rhombus is 10 cm.
