Question : If the diagonals of a rhombus are 16 cm and 30 cm. What is the perimeter (in cm) of the rhombus?

Option 1: 32 cm

Option 2: 64 cm

Option 3: 34 cm

Option 4: 68 cm

Team Careers360 13th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 68 cm


Solution :
The diagonals of a rhombus are 16 cm and 30 cm.
We know diagonals perpendicularly bisect each other in a rhombus.
Side of a rhombus = $\sqrt{(\frac{\text{Diagonal_1}}{2})^2 + (\frac { \text{Diagonal_2}}{2})^2}$
⇒ Side of rhombus = $\sqrt{(\frac{16}{2})^{2}+ (\frac{30}{2})^{2}}$
⇒ Side = $\sqrt{82+152} = \sqrt{289}
