Question

Find the area of the figure.

Answer 1

The area of a rhombus is given by the half the product of its two diagonals.

We can see that AC is composed by two parts measuring 14m, so AC = 28m.

Similarly, BD is composed by two parts long 19m each, so BD = 38m.

Half their product is thus

`A = \frac{\overline{AC}\cdot \overline{BD}}{2} = (28\cdot 38)/(2) = 14\cdot 38 = 532`
