Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.

Let ABCD be the rhombus, Diagonal AC= 16 cm and side AB = 10 cm.

In right triangle AOB, AB = 10 cm, AO = 8 cm

By Pythagoras theorem, AB2 = AO2 + BO2

(10)2 = (8)2 + BO2

BO2 = (10)2 – (8)2

BO = 6 cm

Diagonal BD = 2 x 6 = 12 cm
Area of rhobus = 1/2 × product of the diagonal

= 1/2 × 16× 12

= 96 cm2

Hence length of other diagonal = 12 cm; Area of rhombus = 96 cm2
