The height BH of the rhombus ABCD divides the segments AH = 44 and HD = 11. Find the area of the rhombus.

Determine the length AD of the rhombus side.

AD = AH + DH = 44 + 11 = 55 cm.

Since all sides of a rhombus are equal, then in a right-angled triangle ABN, hypotenuga AB = AD = 55 cm.

By the Pythagorean theorem, in the right-angled triangle ABN, we determine the length of the leg BN.

BH ^ 2 = AB ^ 2 – AH ^ 2 = 3025 – 1936 = 1089.

BH = 33 cm.

Determine the area of the rhombus.

Savsd = AD * BH = 55 * 33 = 1815 cm2.

Answer: The area of the rhombus is 1815 cm2.
