Answer:
1994cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
side of rhombus = 180 / 4 = 45cm
diagonals of a rhombus bisect at 90 degrees
the rhombus is divided into 4 triangles
with height 72/2cm = 36cm
hypotenhuse = 45 cm
length of other diagonal = 2 x√(45² - 36²)
= 2 x 27
= 54 cm
area
= 4 x area of each triangle
= 4 x 1/2 x 36 x 27
= 1994 cm²
