The area of a rhombus is 300 cm2. If the length of one of the diagonals of the rhombus is 30 cm, then what is the length (in cm) of the second diagonal? |
25 10 20 30 |
20 |
We know that, The area of a rhombus = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × (diagonal)1 × (diagonal)2 We have, The area of rhombus = 300 cm2 The length of one of the diagonals of the rhombus = 30 cm So, = 300 = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 30 × (diagonal)2 = (Diagonal)2 = \(\frac{300}{12}\) = 20 cm |
