Question

A rhombus has a base of 8 centimeters and a height of 4.2 centimeters. What is its area? Do not round your answer.

A = cm2

Answer 1

Answer:

$33.6\ cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The Base of a rhombus = 8 centimetres

Height of a rhombus = 4.2 centimetres

Based on the above information, the area of a rhombus is

$Area\ of\ rhombus = Base \times height$

$= 8 \times 4.2$

$= 33.6\ cm^{2}$

By multiplying the base of a rhombus with the height of a rhombus we can get the area of the rhombus and the same is applied & shown in the computation part i.e to be shown above

Answer 2

Answer:

33.6 cm^2

A rhombus is a parallelogram. The area of any parallelogram is the product of its base length and height:

A = bh

A = (8 cm)(4.2 cm)

A = 33.6 cm^2
