Question

An artist makes a hanging sculpture out of rhombus-shaped pieces. Each rhombus shape has diagonals of 3.5 centimeters and 5 centimeters. What is the area of each rhombus?

4.25 cm2
8.5 cm2
8.75 cm2
17.5 cm2

Answer 1

Note that:

• Area of rhombus formula: 1/2 x (Product of the diagonals)

Use the formula to find the area of each rhombus.

• Area of rhombus formula: 1/2 x (Product of the diagonals)
• => Area of rhombus: 1/2 x (3.5 x 5)
• => Area of rhombus: 1/2 x (17.5)
• => Area of rhombus: 1/2 x 17.5
• => Area of rhombus: 8.75 cm²

Correct option is C.

Answer 2
