उत्तर
Given:
Area of the rhombus = Area of the triangle with base 24.8 cm and altitude 16.5 cm
\[\text{ Area of the triangle }=\frac{1}{2}\times\text{ base }\times\text{ altitude }=\frac{1}{2} \times24.8\times16.5=204.6 cm^2 \]
∴ Area of the rhombus = 204.6 cm2
Also, length of one of the diagonals of the rhombus=22 cm
We know: Area of rhombus \[=\frac{1}{2}( d_1 \times d_2 )\]
\[204 . 6 = \frac{1}{2}(22 \times d_2 )\]
\[22 \times d_2 =409.2\]
\[ d_2 =\frac{409 . 2}{22}=18.6 cm\]
Hence, the length of the other diagonal of the rhombus is 18.6 cm.
