Question

The quadrilateral shown is a rhombus. If AB = 17 and AE = 8, what is the measure of AC? A) 8 B) 12 C) 16 D) 24

Answer 1

Explanation:

The quadrilateral shown is a parallelogram. If AC = 28, what is the measure of AE?

Answer 2

C)16

Explanation:

assuming the rhombus is named ABCD and E is where the diagonals meet.

Rhombus is a quadrilateral in which

• All sides are equal
• Opposite internal angles are equal
• Diagonals bisect each other at right angles

As rhombus is ABCD , AC is a diagonal which is bisected by E (According to the properties of Rhombus)

therefore AC will be twice of AE which is given to be 8

⇒ Answer is 16
