Let ABCD be the rhombus where AC = 10 cm and BD = 24 cm.

Let AC and BD intersect each other at O.

Now, diagonals of rhombus bisect each other at right angles.

Thus, we have
AO = 1/2 AC = 1/2 (10) = 5 cm and
BO = 1/2 BD = 1/2 (24) = 12 cm

Since AOB is a right angled triangle, by Pythagoras theorem, we have
AB2 = AO2 + BO2
AB2 = 52 + 122 = 25 + 144 = 169
Hence, AB = 13

Thus, length of each side of rhombus is 13 cm.
