Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:First of all we will find length of side of rhombus by using formula
the perimeter of rhombus = 4 * sides
40 = 4 * sides
10 cm = side of rhombus
now we know that diagonal of rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other hence by using Pythagoras theorem
(10)squared = (8)squared + (x)squared
6 cm = x
12 cm is length of other diagonal .....(6 * 2)=12 cm
Now area of rhombus = 1/2 * product of length of diagonals
= 1/2 * 16 *12
=96 sq.cm
length of other diagonal is 12 cm and area of rhombus is 96 sq.cm

Step-by-step explanation:
let the length of each side of rhombus be a. perimeter of rhombus= 40 cm.
a+a+a+a=40
4a=40
a=10cm
it's one diagonal is 16 cm.
since ,diagonal of rhombus intersect each
other at right angles.
length of other diagonal will be: length of other diagonal= 2(102-82)=2*6=12
cm.
and we also know that:
area of rhombus=D1/2xd1xd2. =1/2x12x16=12*8=96cm2. answer
