Medal for help.

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

What's your question?

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

@StudyGurl14

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

what formula do I use?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Area of rhombus = \(\Large\frac{d_1d_2}{2}\)

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

d is the diagonals. But first, you have to find the diagnoals using the information given

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Can you find the length of half the other diagonal?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

if we apply the therorem of Pitagora, we get: |dw:1452285358107:dw| namely the length of the diagonals are: \(d=2 \cdot 7=14\), and \(D=2 \cdot 7 \sqrt3=14 \sqrt3\) now, please the surface of rhombus, is given by the subsequent formula: \[S = \frac{{D \times d}}{2} = \frac{{14 \times 14\sqrt 3 }}{2} = ...?\]

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

169.74

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please what is the right option?

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

\[98\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

:)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that's right!

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

the value is equivalent to the radical.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes! we can write this: \[S = \frac{{D \times d}}{2} = \frac{{14 \times 14\sqrt 3 }}{2} = 98\sqrt 3 \simeq 169.74\]
