The diagonals of this rhombus are 8 and 16 units long. Their intersection creates four right angles, two 4-unit-long segments, a

Answer:

$64\ \text{sq. units}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rhombus is the product of the length of the diagonals divided by two.

Length of one diagonal is 8 units and the other diagonal is 16 units

Area is given by

$A=\dfrac{8\times 16}{2}\\\Rightarrow A=64\ \text{sq. units}$

The area of the rhombus is $64\ \text{sq. units}$

Another approach is the diagonals have created 4 triangles where the base and is height is either 4 units long or 8 units long so the area of the rhombus would be the area of the 4 triangles.

$A=4\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times 8\\\Rightarrow A=64\ \text{sq. units}$
