The area of a rhombus is 84 m2. If its perimeter is 40 m, then find its altitude.

Perimeter of rhombus = 4 × side


Side of rhombus =


Rhombus is a type of parallelogram, Hence area oa rhombus = area of parallelogram


Therefore area of parallelogram = base× altitude


Base× altitude = area of parallelogram


10 × altitude = 84


Altitude of rhombus = 8.4 m
