Question

A game board is set up by placing rhombus-shaped cards together.

A rhombus with horizontal diagonal length 8 centimeters and vertical diagonal length 13 centimeters.

What is the area of each card?

21 cm2
52 cm2
104 cm2
208 cm2

Answer 1

it would actually be 52

Explanation:

13x8=104

Then the formula to finding the area includes 1/2 as well so you would then multiply 104 times 1/2 according to the formula getting you 52. Not 104.

Answer 2

104cm2
Just do 8x13 and you’ll get 104cm2 since we’re talking about area, multiply
