Find the perimeter of a rhombus whose one diagonal is 16 cm long and area is 240 cm2. |
68 cm 30 cm 24 cm 36 cm |
68 cm |
Area =1/2× (d1×d2), where d1 and d2 are diagonals 240 =1/2 × 16 × d2 d2 = 30cm If both the diameters of the rhombus are = 30 and 15 then, with the help of pythagorous theorem, AB = \(\sqrt {8^2 + 15^2}\) = 17 Now the perimeter = 17 × 4 = 68 cm |
