Answer:
c) 120 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's consider the rhombus has 4 sides, A, B, C, and D.
To find the length of each side, let's first find the length AE.
From the diagram, AE is half of AC and AC = 30 ft.
Therefore,
AE = ½ * 30
AE = 15 ft
Let's find the length AD, since we are looking for the distance around the perimeter.
We are told the rhombus is formed by four identical triangles.
Therefore the distance around the perimeter would be: AD+AD+AD+AD=
30 ft + 30 ft + 30 ft + 30 ft
= 120 ft
The distance around the perimeter of the garden is 120 ft
