Question:

If length of the diagonals of a rhombus are 24 and 18 cm, what is the area of a rhombus?

Options:

196 cm2

188 cm2

204 cm2

216 cm2

Correct Answer:

216 cm2

Explanation:

We know that,

The area of a rhombus = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × Diagonal(1) × Diagonal(2)

Given,

Diagonal(1) = 24 cm

Diagonal(2) = 18 cm

So, the area of a rhombus = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 24 × 18 = 216 cm2
