What is the area of the rhombus?
The area of a rhombus is calculated by multiplying the base x the vertical height.
What is the base of a rhombus whose area is 7886.2 sq cm and height is 95.7 cm?
Base = Area/Height = 7886.2/95.7 = 82.405 cm (to 3 dp)
How is the area of a rhombus derived?
Base multiplied by its perpendicular height and measured in square units.
What is the missing diagonal of a rhombus if the area is 120ft2 and the other diagonal is 16 feet?
Given: The area of the rhombus is 120 square feet The diagonal of the rhombus is 16 feet think of the rhombus being two identical triangles, connected at their base which is 16 feet long. Each of them would then have an area of 60 feet. Now, in a triangle, area = (base * height) / 2 the area is already given as 60, and the base as 16 we can say then: 60 = (16 * h) / 2 ∴60 = 8h ∴h = 7.5 Now, that 7.5 is half the length of the rhombus (as it's the height of one of our triangles, which each are half our rhombus). So we know that that the other diagonal on the rhombus is twice that. In other words, the answer is 15.
How do you find the base of a trapazoid when you have the height and area?
Area = Base * Height so Base = Area/Height
