The rhombus in our problem has 4 sides with length of 35 cm, 140/4 (since the sides of the rhombus are congruent, and the perimeter is 140 cm ).
We know that the diagonals of the rhombus are perpendicular and bisect each other, so they form 4 right congruent triangles, so the area of one triangle is 105 cm^2.
Let the base of the triangle be x, then the altitude will be equal to √[(side)^2 - (base)^2] (from the pythagorean theorem). So the area of one triangle formed by drawing the diagonals of the rhombus
is:
(1/2)[x√(35^2 - x^2)] = 105 square both sides (1/4)[x^2(1,225 - x^2) = 11,025 multiply by 4 to both sides x^2(1,225 - x^2) = 44,100 1,225x^2 - (x^2)(x^2) = 44,100 let x^2 = t, and substitute t for x^2 into the equation 1,225t - (t)(t) = 44,100 1,225t - t^2 = 44,100 subtract 44,100 to both sides 1,225t - t^2 - 44,100 = 0 multiply by -1 to both sides and rearrange the terms of the equation
t^2 - 1,225t + 44,100 = 0 where a = 1, b = 1,225, and c = 44,100
Use the quadratic formula, x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)]/2, to solve for t
t = [1,225 ± √[1,225^2 - 4(1)(44,100)]]/2
t = (1,225 ± 1,150.75)/2 ignore +, because if you add it is a big number, and the side of rombus is only 35, and as the hypotenuse it is bigger than sides
t = (1,225 - 1,150.75)/2
t = 74.25/2
t = 37.125
Since t = x^2, then x^2 = 37.125, and x = √37.125 = 6.09 approximately (as length is always positive).
Thus the base is 6 cm, and the altitude is
√(35^2 - x^2) = √(1225 - 37.125) = 34.46 approximately. Thus the diagonals of the rhombus are d1 = 2 x 6.09 = 12.18, (approximately), and d2 = 2 x 34.46 = 68.92 We know that the area of the rhombus is equal to one halph of the product of its diagonals. Check:
(1/2)(12.18 x 68.92) = 419.7228 approximately to 420.

First, you must find the width. Use Pythagoras' Theorem. Then, just add the lengths of the four sides, to get the perimeter.
If the area is a square, 1/4 of the perimeter is the length of one side. That length squared is the area. The area will be the product of two numbers whose sum is half the perimeter.
first tell me the formula
Perimeter = 4*Side so that Side = Perimeter/4 Area of a rhombus = Side * Altitude so Altitude = Area/Side = Area/(Perimeter/4) = 4*Area/Perimeter

Find the area of a rhombus whose side is 6 cm and whose altitude is 4 cm? . Area = base * height Altitude = height. Altitude = 4 cm . A rhombus has all 4 sides equal, so the base = 6 cm . Area = base * height . Area = ____sq. cm.
130 is the area.
Base 1= 5 Perimeter 1=20 altitude 1= 4 A/P1 = 4*24/20 = 24/5 = 4.8 Base 2=3 Perimeter 2=12 altitude 2= 4*24/12 = 4*2 =8
A = baWhere A = areab = length of the basea = altitude (height).
All the 4 sides of a rhombus are equal, so 4 times the length of a side.
Unless it is a rhombus (or square) you cannot.
The four sides of a rhombus are equal and so: 6+6+6+6 = 24
A rhombus is a 4 sided quadrilateral whose sides are equal in lengths and can be measured with a ruler.

There is no relationship between the perimeter and the area of a rhombus. Take a rhombus with all 4 sides = 2 units. Therefore the perimeter is 8 units. There are an infinite number of possible areas for this rhombus. The largest possible area will be when the rhombus approaches the shape of a square = 4 square units. The smallest area will be when the one diagonal approaches 0 units and the other diagonal approaches 4 units (squashed almost flat). So two very extreme areas can have the same perimeter, including all those areas in-between.
