Question
The area of a rhombus is 100 sq.cm and length of one of its diagonals is 8 cm. Find the length of the other diagonal
Advertisements
Solution
Given the length of one diagonal d1 = 8 cm
Area of the rhombus = 100 sq.cm
`1/2` (d1 × d2) = 100
`1/2 xx 8 xx "d"_2` = 100
8 × d2 = 100 × 2
d2 = `(100 xx 2)/8`
= 25 cm
Length of the other diagonal d2 = 25 cm
