SSC MTS - 19 July 2022 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q57

The lengths of the diagonals of a rhombus are 16 cm and 30 cm, respectively. What is the perimeter of the rhombus?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 68

(The side of the rhombus)2 = (16/2)2 + (30/2)2

⇒ side2 = 82 + 152

⇒  side2 = 64 + 225 = 289

Thus, the side = 17 cm

The perimeter of the rhombus = 4 × 17 = 68 cm
