    Question

    What is the area of a rhombus, whose sides are 25 cm and one of the diagonals is 14 cm?

    A.

    330 cm2

    B.

    310 cm2

    C.

    336 cm2

    D.

    300 cm2

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    Sides = 25 cm, one diagonal = 14 cm.

    Formula Used: 

    Area of rhombus = 12×diagonal1×diagonal2\frac{1}{2} \times \text{diagonal}_1 \times \text{diagonal}_2  

    Relation between diagonal and side of the rhombus;

    d12+d22=4×side2d_1^2 + d_2^2 = 4 \times \text{side}^2 

    where d1 and d2 are diagonals
    Solution: 

    Putting the values; 

    142+d22=4×25214^2 + d_2^2 = 4 \times 25^2 

    196+d22=2500196 + d_2^2 = 2500 

    d22=2304, d2=48d_2^2 = 2304, \\ \implies d_2 = 48 

    Now, 

    Area = 12×14×48=336 cm2\frac{1}{2} \times 14 \times 48 = 336 \, \text{cm}^2 

    Thus, the Area of the rhombus is 336 cm2
