When you are looking at a rhombus you know that it will be 4 congruent triangles when the diagonals are added in. So if you draw the rhombus each of the triangles will have one side that is 12 feet and another that is 9. You can now use Pythagorean’s theorem to find the length of a side. The length will be 15 feet.
