so the rhombus has the diagonals of AC and BD, now keeping in mind that the diagonals bisect each, namely they cut each other in two equal halves, let's find the length of each.

that simply means that each triangle has a side that is half of 10√2 and another side that's half of 6√2.
namely, each triangle has a "base" of 3√2, and a "height" of 5√2, keeping in mind that all triangles are congruent, then their area is,
![\bf \stackrel{\textit{area of the four congruent triangles}}{4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(3\sqrt{2})(5\sqrt{2}) \right]\implies 4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(15\cdot (\sqrt{2})^2) \right]}\implies 4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(15\cdot 2) \right] \\\\\\ 4[15]\implies 60](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Barea%20of%20the%20four%20congruent%20triangles%7D%7D%7B4%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%283%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%29%285%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%29%20%5Cright%5D%5Cimplies%204%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%2815%5Ccdot%20%28%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%29%5E2%29%20%5Cright%5D%7D%5Cimplies%204%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%2815%5Ccdot%202%29%20%5Cright%5D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A4%5B15%5D%5Cimplies%2060)
