Question

If the area of a rhombus is 14504 m² and the ratio of the diagonals is 37:49 then find the length of the shorter diagonal.

A 196m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 148m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 216m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 146m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

An area of rhombus = 14504m² The ratio of diagonals = 37:49 Let the diagonals be 37x and 49x. Now –Area of rhombus =(d1×d2)/2 14504= (37x×49x) /2 x² =(14504×2)/(37×49) = 592/37 = 16 X=4 The shorter diagonal is = 37 ×4 = 148meter
