Question

in the rhombus shown below AC and BD are 6 and 4in respectively determine the area of the figure in square inches

Answer 1

The area of a rhombus is computed as follows:

A = p*q*1/2

where p and q are the diagonals of the rhombus.

In this case:

A = AC*BD*1/2

A = 6*4*1/2

A = 12 square inches
