Answer: 5.196152423
Step-by-step explanation: Logically considering it's a Rhombus all the sides are equal to each other. So you just need to find the area. In this case you find the area by multiplying the sin of the given angle by the square root of the given side. So, 6²×sin (60)=6²×√3/2=31.17691454. After finding the area you then have to divide the area by it's base to find the height. So, 31.17691454 ÷ 6 = 5.196152423.
I didn't round any of the numbers. Hopefully this is correct.
Sorry about the messy diagrams (never been good at creating them) and how long it took.
Distributive property, since 3(2x) you distribute and get 6x
You figure out how long it would take a car traveling at 25 mph
to cover 360 ft. Any driver who does it in less time is speeding.
(25 mi/hr) · (5,280 ft/mile) · (1 hr / 3,600 sec)
= (25 · 5280 / 3600) ft/sec = (36 and 2/3) feet per second.
To cover 360 ft at 25 mph, it would take
360 ft / (36 and 2/3 ft/sec) = 9.82 seconds .
Anybody who covers the 360 feet in less than 9.82 seconds
is moving faster than 25 mph.

If you're interested, here's how to do it in the other direction:
Let's say a car covers the 360 feet in ' S ' seconds.
What's the speed of the car ?
(360 ft / S sec) · (1 mile / 5280 feet) · (3600 sec/hour)
= (360 · 3600) / (S · 5280) mile/hour
= 245.5 / S miles per hour .
The teacher timed one car crossing both strips in 7.0 seconds.
How fast was that car traveling ?
245.5 / 7.0 = 35.1 miles per hour
Another teacher timed another car that took 9.82 seconds to cross
both strips. How fast was this car traveling ?
245.5 / 9.82 = 25 miles per hour
The value of x can be found using the sine function.
sin 30 = x/8
8 (sin 30) = x
4 = x
