  1. Given:

    A rhombus with –

    • Diagonal 1 = 30 cm
    • Diagonal 2 = 40 cm

    What To Find:

    We have to –

    • Find the side of the rhombus.

    Formula Needed:

    The formula is –

    [tex]\bf s = \dfrac{\sqrt{(D1)^2 + (D2)^2}}{2}[/tex]

    Abbreviations Used:

    • s = Side
    • D1 = Diagonal 1
    • D2 = Diagonal 2

    Solution:

    [tex]\sf \implies s = \dfrac{\sqrt{(D1)^2 + (D2)^2}}{2}[/tex]

    Substitute the values,

    [tex]\sf \implies s = \dfrac{\sqrt{(30)^2 + (40)^2}}{2}[/tex]

    Find the squares of 30 and 40,

    [tex]\sf \implies s = \dfrac{\sqrt{900 + 1600}}{2}[/tex]

    Add 900 and 1600,

    [tex]\sf \implies s = \dfrac{\sqrt{2500}}{2}[/tex]

    Find the square root of 2500,

    [tex]\sf \implies s = \dfrac{50}{2}[/tex]

    Divide 50 by 2,

    [tex]\sf \implies s = 25[/tex]

    Final Answer:

    ∴ Thus, the side of the rhombus is 25 cm.
