Area Problems
One diagonal of a rhombus is 60% of the other diagonal. Then, area of the rhombus is how many times the square of the length of the larger diagonal?
Let one diagonal be k.Then, other diagonal = (60k/100) = 3k/5 cmArea of rhombus =(1/2) x k x (3k/5) = (3/10) = 3/10 (square of longer diagonal)Hence, area of rhombus is 3/10 times.
Let length of rectangular field = 5y,so width = 4y.From question5y - 4y = 20m? x = 20m ? Length = (5 x 20)m = 100 mBreadth = (4 x 20) m = 80 m ? Perimeter = 2 (100 + 80 ) m = 360 m
