    The perimeter of a rhombus is 56 m and its height is 5

    m. Its area is:
    A 44m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 72m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 91m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 70m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 75m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Using formula, Area of rhombus = 4 x side Therefore, 4 x side = 56 ⇒ Side = 56/4 = 14 m As, rhombus is a parallelogram of equal sides, Its area = base × height = 14 × 5 = 70 m2
