1. Consider the parallelogram ABCD drawn in the 1. figure attached.

2. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, so AM=MC and BM=MD


3. In triangle ABC, BM is an altitude (BM perpendicular to AC), but also a median (AM=MC). An altitude is also a median only when the triangle is isosceles, so AB=BC 

similarly, in triangle BCD, CM is both an altitude and a median.Thus, BCD is an isosceles triangle so BC=CD.

4. AB= DC (opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal), similarly BC=DA

5. So ABCD is a quadrilateral, with all 4 sides equal in length. Thus ABCD is a rhombus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here

BC=P=10

AC=B=b

AB=H=15

then using fourmula

h^2= p^2+ b^2

b^2= 15×15 - 10× 10

b^2= 125

b=11.2
