Question:The length of one diagonal of a rhombus is 80% of the other diagonal. The area of the rhombus is how many times the square of the length of the longer diagonal ?
A `4/5`
B `2/5`
C `3/4`
D `1/4`
/98
+ Answer
B
+ ExplanationLet one diagonal = x cm. Another diagonal
`= 80/(100) x`
`= (4x)/5 cm.`
Area of rhombus` = 1/2 (x xx (4x)/5)`
`= 2/5 x^2`
`= 2/5` (square of longer diagonal)
