Detailed Solution

Given a rhombus having each side equal to 15 cm and one of whose diagonals is 24 cm.
Prove that a parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus if and only if the diagonals  AC and BD are perpendicular to each other. | Homework.Study.comUsing Pythagoras theorem in ΔOAB,
hypotenus e 2 =bas e 2 +perpendicula r 2 AB 2 = OA 2 + OB 2  
OB 2 = AB 2 OA 2  
OB 2 = 15 2 12 2  
OB 2 =225144  
OB 2 =81  
OB=9cm  
Length of BD is,
BD=2×9  
BD=18cm  
Let, area of the rhombus = Question Image.
A= 1 2 ×diagona l 1 ×diagona l 2 A= 1 2 ×24×18   A=12×18   A=216c m 2  
Therefore, the area is 216c m 2  .
Hence, option 4 is correct.
