Since the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular and bisect each other, then we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the side of the rhombus. So in the right triangle, whose length of the legs are 6 and 8 centimeters, the hypotenuse length (the length of the side of the rhombus) is
√(62 + 82) = √(36 + 64) = √100 = 10 cm.
"Congruent" isn't used to describe the diagonals of a rhombus. However, all four sides of a rhombus are congruent - they are all the same length.The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other. They are not the same length - if the diagonals were the same length, then you would have a square.
rhombus
A rhombus.
Regular polygons. A square and rectangle will have congruent (equal length) diagonals.
To find the value of x in a rhombus, use these properties. All sides of a rhombus are the same length. Opposite angles of a rhombus are the same size and measure. Intersection of the diagonals of a rhombus form right angles. Sides are perpendicular. The diagonals of rhombus bisect each other. Adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees.
The sides of a rhombus must all be the same length, but the angles do not need to be the same. The result is a diamond shape where the diagonals can be two different lengths.
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.

You need more information: the length of a side. Then, since the diagonals bisect one another at right angles, you can use Pythagoras's theorem to calculate their lengths.

The answer depends on which aspect of a rhombus. Its sides are of equal length but its diagonals are NOT!
It depends on what information you have: the length of a side, or the lengths of the diagonals, or a diagonal and an angle. Each of these will give rise to a different formula.

Not in general. The diagonals of a rectangle are equal length. A rhombus that is also a rectangle would be a square.
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.
rhombus
Yes, they are perpendicular and intersect at their midpoints. The difference between diagonals in a rhombus as opposed to a rectangle or square is that the diagonals are not of equal length.
