ABCD is a rhombus. AC = 8 cm, and BD = 3.5 cm. What is the area of the rhombus?

Solution:

Given, ABCD is a rhombus.

AC = 8cm

BD = 3.5cm

We have to find the area of the rhombus.

 AC and BD are the diagonals of the rhombus

Area of the rhombus = (d1 × d2) / 2

Where, d1 and d2 are the diagonals of the rhombus

Area = (8)(3.5) / 2

= 4(3.5)

= 14cm²

Therefore, area of the rhombus is 14cm².

ABCD is a rhombus. AC = 8 cm, and BD = 3.5 cm. What is the area of the rhombus?

Summary:

ABCD is a rhombus. AC = 8 cm, and BD = 3.5 cm. The area of the rhombus is 14cm².
