Answer:

CD=20 cm and DE=15 cm. CD=20 cm and DE=15 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus DMFN is inscribed in such a way that it is inscribed in  triangle CDE with the vertices M, F, and N l on the sides CD , CE , and DE respectively.

Now, in rhombus, the parallel sides are always parallel, therefore

MF║DE, thus, \frac{CM}{MD}=\frac{CF}{EF} by the basic proportionality condition.

It is given that CF=8 cm and EF=12 cm, therefore, \frac{CM}{MD}=\frac{8}{12}.

That is CM=8 cm and MD=12 cm. Therefore, CD=CM+MD=8+12=20.

According to question, Perimeter of △CDE =55 cm

⇒CD+DE+CE=55

⇒20+DE+20=55

⇒DE=15 cm

Hence, CD=20 cm and DE=15 cm.
