Question

The perimeter of a rhombus is 56 m and its height is 5 m. Its area is:

Answer 1

Answer:

its

$70 {m}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of rhombus = x+x+x+x

= 4x

56 = 4x

or, x= 14

hence sides of the rhombus are 14m

now, we know the formula to find the height of a rhombus.

i.e,

$h = \frac{area}{base}$

area is unknown but height is 5m

piece of cake.

$5 = \frac{a}{14} \\ \\ or \: 5 \times 14 = a \\ \\ or \: a = 70 {m}^{2}$
