Question

Four friends Rama, Radha, Sherin and Amruth are standing on the ground in such a way that they form the vertices of a rhombus. If they are standing in the same order as mentioned and if the straight line distance between Rama and Sherin is 6 m and that between Radha and Amruth is 8 m, what is the straight line distance between Rama and Radha?

Answer 1

5 meters

Explanation:

To find the side of a rhombus knowing the lengths of its diagonals, you can use the formula:

Side = √((Diagonal1/2)^2 + (Diagonal2/2)^2)

In this case, the diagonals are given as 8 and 6 meters. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

Side = √((8/2)^2 + (6/2)^2)

= √(4^2 + 3^2)

= √(16 + 9)

= √25

= 5 meters

Therefore, the side of the rhombus is 5 meters.
