Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is a parallelogram with all four sides equal.

Its diagonals are perpendicular.

Each of the triangles formed by the diagonals and the sides are congruent, so the area of the rhombus is 4 times the area of one of the triangles.

Since the short diagonal is given as 4, each of the triangles can be viewed as having a base of 2.  Each triangle's height, h, then is one half the length of the long diagonal.

The are of one of the triangles is 1/2 (base)(height)=(1/2)(2)h

The area of the rhombus is then

4(1/2)(2)h=24

Solving for h gives

h=6

This makes the length of the long diagonal 2h=12

Which is the equation of a circle with its center at (-4,2) and a radius of 4?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

(x +4)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation for a circle with the formula

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

Where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius

We know the center is at (-4,2) and the radius is 4

(x- -4)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 4^2

(x +4)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 16
