Answer:

Explanation:

I posted a pic to show you what this looks like so you have some idea of what it is I'm talking about in the explanation of how to find the side length of the rhombus. Knowing that this is a rhombus, all the sides are the same length.

Looking at the pic below, you can see that I divided the length of AC in 2 equal parts to get that the base of the right triangle I extracted below that is 8; the height is 6. We can find the side marked with a ? by using Pythagorean's Theorem; namely:


??^2=6^2+8^2 and


??^2=36+64 and


??^2=100 so

? = 10

The length of the sides of the rhombus is 10.
