Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
A rhombus has sides of length 8 cm. One of its diagonals measures 10 cm. Calculate the length of the other diagonal.
[3 marks]
2.
In a rhombus, the diagonals intersect at right angles. If one diagonal is 14 cm and the diagonals bisect each other, find the area of the rhombus.
[4 marks]
3.
Construct a rhombus with sides of 6 cm and diagonals of 8 cm and 10 cm. Show all steps in your construction.
[4 marks]
4.
A rhombus has interior angles of 60° and 120°. Calculate the length of one side if the height (altitude) when the angle is 60° is 5 cm.
[3 marks]
5.
Explain why the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular. Use reasoning based on properties of parallelograms and symmetry.
[3 marks]
6.
A rhombus has diagonals of lengths 16 cm and 24 cm. Find the measure of each interior angle.
[3 marks]
7.
A real-world object is shaped like a rhombus with sides of 9 meters. Its diagonals measure 12 meters and 16 meters. Calculate the total length of the perimeter.
[3 marks]
8.
Identify and correct the mistake: A student states that the diagonals of a rhombus are always equal in length.
[2 marks]
9.
Find the length of the side of a rhombus if its diagonals are 20 cm and 24 cm.
[3 marks]
10.
Challenge: Prove that in a rhombus, the diagonals bisect the angles at the vertices.
[4 marks]
