the perimeter of a rhombus is 260 cm and the height is 10 cm . if one diagnol is 0.25 m, find the length of other diagnol also in metres.
Suppose a be the length of each side of rhombus.
So, its perimeter = 4a = 260 cm
= 65 cm = 0.65 m
Height of rhombus = 10 cm = 0.1 m
So, area of rhombus = base height = 0.65 0.1 = 0.0650
Now, length of one diagonal of rhombus = 0.25 m
Suppose length of other diagonal is d
And we know that area of rhombus when length of diagonals are given = (product of length of two diagonals)
So, we have;
Therefore, length of other diagonal is 0.52 m.
So, its perimeter = 4a = 260 cm
= 65 cm = 0.65 m
Height of rhombus = 10 cm = 0.1 m
So, area of rhombus = base height = 0.65 0.1 = 0.0650
Now, length of one diagonal of rhombus = 0.25 m
Suppose length of other diagonal is d
And we know that area of rhombus when length of diagonals are given = (product of length of two diagonals)
So, we have;
Therefore, length of other diagonal is 0.52 m.
