Question

the length of the two diagonals of a rhombus shaped field are 40 m and 60 M find the cost of lavelling the field at the rate of rupees 8 per square metre ​

Answer 1

The cost of levelling the field at the rate of rupees 8 per square meter ​ is 9600.

The length of the two diagonals of a rhombus shaped field are 40 m and 60 m.

The area of a rhombus :

Area =
`(1)/(2)` * d1 * d2

d1 = the length of the first diagonal

d2= the length of the second diagonal

In this case, d1 = 40 m and d2 = 60 m.

Therefore, the area of the rhombus is:

Area =
`(1)/(2)` * 40 m * 60 m

= 1200 square meters

Total cost = Area * Rate

Total cost = 1200 square meters * 8/square meter =9600

The total cost of leveling the field is ₹9600.
