Perimeter = 20 cm.
Since all sides of the rhombus are equal, so each side of the rhombus= 20 cm/4 = 5 cm.
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angle. Therefore, the diagonals divide the rhombus in 4 equal right triangles, whose hypotenuse are the sides of the rhombus, and other two sides are the half lengths of the two diagonals.
In one such right triangle, hypotenuse = 5 cm, side 1 = 6 cm/2 = 3 cm
