Fill in the blanks to make the correct statement.

If the diagonals of the rhombus get doubled, then the area of the rhombus becomes ________ its original area.

We know that,


Area of rhombus = × d1 × d2


Where ,d1 and d2 are diagonals of the rhombus.


If the diagonals get doubled, then the area = × 2d1 × 2d2


=


Hence, the new area becomes 4times its original area.
