Question

Given: WXYZ is a rhombus. If WX = 5, find the perimeter of WXYZ. 20 25 40

Answer 1

To find the perimeter of a rhombus, you multiply the length of one side by 4. For a rhombus with side length 5, the perimeter would be 20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking about the perimeter of a rhombus with a given side length. To find the perimeter of a rhombus, we simply multiply the length of one side by 4 because all sides of a rhombus are equal in length. In our case, if WX, which is one side of rhombus WXYZ, is equal to 5, then the perimeter (P) of the rhombus would be:

P = 4 × WX

P = 4 × 5

P = 20

Therefore, the perimeter of rhombus WXYZ is 20 units.

Answer 2

20

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus has 4 congruent sides, so the length of the perimeter will be 4 times the length of one side. Vertices of a polygon are named in order so in rhombus WXYZ, the vertices W and X are adjacent and are the endpoints of one side.

One side measures 5 and there are 4 sides of that length. The perimeter is ...

4 · 5 units = 20 units
