Question

Find the area of the rhombus. A= square units

Answer 1

Answer: A=70 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle can be found using the formula $A=\frac{1}{2} bh$

Let 5=h and 7=b

Plug in the values and solve

$A=\frac{1}{2} (7)(5)$

$A=17.5$

However, since four of these triangles make up this rhombus, we can multiply the area of one of these triangles by four to find the area of the whole rhombus.

$A=17.5*4$

$A=70$
