उत्तर

Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles. 

PR = 20 cm, QS = 48 cm

⇒ `"PO" = 1/2 "PR"`

= `1/2 xx 20`

= 10 cm

Similarly, QS = 48 cm

⇒ `"QO" = 1/2 "SQ"`

= `1/2 xx 48`

= 24 cm

In ΔPOQ, applying Pythagoras theorem,

OQ2 + OP2 = PQ2

⇒ 242 + 102 = PQ2

⇒ PQ2 = 576 + 100

⇒ PQ2 = 676

⇒ PQ = 26 cm
