The diagonals of a rhombus are 16 cm and 12 cm, in length. The side of the rhombus in length is:

20 cm
8 cm
10 cm
9 cm
Explanation:

Here, half of the diagonals of a rhombus are the sides of the triangle and side of the rhombus is the hypotenuse.

By Pythagoras theorem,

$(\dfrac{16}{2})^2+(\dfrac{12}{2})^2=side^2$

$8^2+6^2=side^2$

64+36=$side^2$

$side^2$ = 100

side=10 cm
