1. Step-by-step explanation:

   GIVEN :-

   Base of rhombus = 17 cm

   Height of rhombus = 8 cm

   TO FIND :-

   Area of rhombus.

   Area of rhombus = 1/2 ( base × height )

   = 1/2 ( 17 cm × 8 cm )

   = 1/2 × 136 cm²

   = 68 cm²

   Hence Area of rhombus is 68 cm².

   ADDITIONAL INFORMATION :-

   ▪︎Area of rhombus, when the diagonals are given = 1/2 (d1 × d2).

   Example:- If the diagonals of the Rhombus are 4 cm and 2 cm , Find Area of rhombus.

   ▪︎Area of rhombus = 1/2 (d1 × d2)

   = 1/2 ( 4 cm × 2 cm )

   = 1/2 × 8 cm

   = 4 cm².

   Hence the area of rhombus is 4 cm².
