Question

The diagonals of a rhombus are 6 and 8. the area of the rhombus is.... 20 24 48

Answer 1

24

Explanation:

6*8=48

48/2=24.

Answer 2

Area of rhombus is 24 square units.

Explanation:

We have been given that the diagonals of a rhombus are 6 and 8.

We know that the area of a rhombus of diagonal length x and y is given by

`A=(1)/(2)xy`

Substituting the known values, we get

`A=(1)/(2)\cdot6\cdot8`

Simplifying, we get

`A=3\cdot8\\\\A=24`

Hence, area of rhombus is 24 square units.
