The ratio of the diagonals of a rhombus is 4:5 . If area of it is 1000 cm^2 , find the length of both diagonals.
Answers
Answer:
area of rhombus is equal to (d1×d2)÷2
let D1 is equal to 4x
and d2 is equal to 5 x
so, (d1×d2)÷2
(4x×5x)÷2=1000
(20x^2)÷2=1000
10x^2=1000
1000÷10=x^2
100=x^2
x=10

The lengths of the diagonals are 40 cm and 50 cm
Given:
The ratio of the diagonals of a rhombus is 4: 5
The area of the rhombus is 1000 cm²
To find:
Find the length of both diagonals.
Solution:
Formula used:
Area of Rhombus = (d₁ × d₂)/2
From the data,
The ratio of the diagonals of a rhombus is 4: 5
Let 4x and 5x be the diagonals of the rhombus
[ Since they are in 4: 5 ratio]
Using the formula,
Area of Rhombus = (4x × 5x)/2
= 20x²/2 = 10x²
It is given that area of the rhombus = 1000 cm²
=> 10x² = 1000 cm²
=> x² = 100
=> x = √100
=> x = 10 cm
The lengths of diagonals can be calculated as follows
=> 4x = 4(10) = 40 cm
=> 5x = 5(10) = 50 cm
Therefore,
The lengths of the diagonals are 40 cm and 50 cm
