The length of the sides of the rhombus are 10cm, as a rhombus has equal sides.

since the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular,

ratio of

side of rhombus to

1/2 a diagonal to

1/2 of another diagonal

is 5:4:3 (pythagorean thriple),

hence ratio of side of rhombus to

1 diagonal

to another diagonal

is 5:8:6.

since 5 units = 10cm

8 units = 16cm

6 units = 12cm

and there are your diagonals.

If the diagonals of the rhombus are in the ratio 3 to 4 and the perimeter of the rhombus is 40 cm what are the lengths of the diagonals?

The lengths of the diagonals work out as 12 cm and 16 cm


What is the ratio of the length of diagonals of a rhombus?

They are the same length, so 1:1 * * * * * In fact that is the one ratio they cannot be. A rhombus with equal diagonals is a square. The ratio of the lengths can have any other positive value.


Does a trapezoid have the property that diagonals are perpendicular?

No, they do not have that property. The quadrilaterals that have that property are the rhombus (and subsequently, the square) and the kite. The only property I'm aware of diagonals of a trapezoid having is the fact that they cut each other in the same ratio, which happens to be the ratio between the lengths of the parallel sides.


The ratio of corresponding side lengths of two similar rectangular tables is 4 5 what is the ratio of perimeter?

It is the same.


Two triangular prisms are similar. The perimeter of each face of one prism is double the perimeter of the corresponding face of the other prism. How are the surface areas of the figures related?

The ratios of areas are the squares of the ratio of lengths (and the ratio of volumes are cubes of the ratio of lengths). As the perimeter of the second is twice the perimeter of the first, each length of the second is twice the length of the first, and so the ratio of the lengths is 1:2 Thus the ratio of the areas is 1²:2² = 1:4. Therefore the surface area of the larger prism is four times that of the smaller prism.


How can you find perimeter of two similar figures?

You need to find the perimeter of one by adding together the lengths of all its sides. The perimeter of the similar shape is the answer multiplied by the similarity ratio.


How do you find ratio of perimeter?

get the lengths of all sides of shape for example : 12 : 10 : 14 now by simplifying . . . 6 : 5 : 7


The perimeter of a rectangle is 36 The ratio of the lengths of the sides is 2 and 7 What are the lengths of the sides?

What would the ratio of a two rectangles be if one rectangles width is 24Cm and length 30Cm the other rectangle is width of 36 Cm length of 42 Cm?

These are not similar rectangles so there is no obvious candidate for the ratio. Is it ratio of lengths (sides, perimeter, diameter), or ratio of area?


Abcd is a parallelogram if the ratio of the two sides is 3 2 and perimeter is 120 m then find the lengths of the sides of parallelogram?

The sides are 24 metres and 36 metres.


The ratio if the side lengths of a rectangle are 2 5 2 5 If the perimeter is 224 what are the side lengths of the tectangle Please help?

Let the lengths be 2x and 5x If: 2*(2x+5x) = 224 then x = 16 So therefore the lengths are 32 and 80 because 32+80+32+80 = 224
