1. What is the formula for the area of a rhombus if the lengths of its diagonals are d1 and d2?
A = d1 + d2
A = d1 * d2
A = 1/2 * d1 * d2
A = 2 * d1 * d2
2. A rhombus has diagonals of 10 cm and 12 cm. What is its area?
22 cm²
60 cm²
120 cm²
30 cm²
3. The diagonals of a rhombus are bisectors of each other.
4. If the area of a rhombus is 84 square meters and one diagonal is 14 meters, the other diagonal is meters.
