Correct Answer - Option 3 : 12 cm

Given:

Lengths of one diagonals is 16 cm

The side of rhombus is 10 cm

Formula used/Concept Used:

Diagonals of rhombus bisect each other at 90°

Side of rhombus = √(D1/2)2 + (D2/2)2

Calculation:

Lengths of one diagonals is 16 cm and the side of rhombus is 10 cm

Let the length of another diagonal of rhombus is x cm

By using the formula

∴ 10 = √(x/2)2 + (16/2)2

⇒ 10 = √(x/2)2 + (8)2

⇒ 100 = (x/2)2 + 64

⇒ x2 = 36 × 4

⇒ x = 12 cm

∴ The length of another diagonal is 12 cm
