If the area of a rhombus is 120, and d1 is 4 cm more than twice the length of the shorter one, d2. What are the lengths of the diagonals of the rhombus? Round to three decimals

The formula for the diagonal of a rhombus is derived using the area of the rhombus. In other words, if the area and one of the diagonals is given, then the other diagonal can be calculated using the formula, p = (2 × Area)/q, where 'p' and 'q' are the two diagonals of the rhombus.
