Answer:

The answer is (D) 44 units

Explanation:

1. The formula for the area of a rhombus is A=
(d_(1) d_(2))/(2)

2. Fill in the information we know:

  • A = 264
  • d1 = 12

3. Now work backward:

  • If A=
    (d_(1) d_(2))/(2) then that means 264 =
    \frac{12_ {} d_(2)}{2}
  • So 12 multiplied by a number divided by 2 is equal to 264
  • That means that 264 multiplied by two and divided by 12 will give you the mystery number.

4. Solve it:

  • 264 multiplied by 2 is equal to 528
  • 528 divided by 12 is equal to 44

Hence 44 units (D) is your answer
