    The perimeter of a rhombus is 52 cm and one of its diagonals is 24 cm. Determine the length of the other diagonal.

    A)  24 cm                         

    B)  10 cm 

    C) \[2\frac{1}{6}cm\]        

    D)    12cm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given perimeter of a rhombus is 52 cm, each side of the rhombus \[=\frac{52}{4}=13\,cm.\]Area of rhombus \[=2\sqrt{25(25-24)(25-13)(25-13)}\] \[=120\,\,\text{sq}\text{.cm}\text{.}\] Areal \[=\frac{1}{2}\times \text{prdouct of diagonals}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[120=\frac{1}{2}\times 24\times d\Rightarrow d=10\,cm\] \[\therefore \]The other diagonal to 10 cm.
