</div>
<h2><a name="Area"></a>Area of a Rhombus</h2>
<p class="center"><img src="images/rhombus-measure.svg" alt="rhombus measure s and altitude" height="141" width="360"></p>
<p>The Area can be calculated by:</p>
<ul>
<li>the altitude times the side length:
<div class="so">Area = altitude × s</div></li><br>
<li>the side length squared (s<sup>2</sup>) times the sine of angle A (or angle B):
<div class="so">Area = <span class="larger">s<sup>2</sup> sin(A)</span></div>
<div class="so">Area = <span class="larger">s<sup>2</sup> sin(B)</span></div></li><br>
<li>by multiplying the lengths of the diagonals and then dividing by 2:
<div class="so">Area = <span class="larger">(p × q)/2</span></div></li>
</ul>
<div class="example">
<h3>Example: A rhombus has diagonals of 6 m and 8 m, what is its Area?</h3>
<p>Area = (6 m × 8 m)/2 = <b>24 m<sup>2</sup></b></p>
</div>
<p>If you can draw your Rhombus, try the <span class="center"><a href="area-polygon-drawing.html">Area of Polygon by Drawing</a></span> tool.</p>
<h2><a name="Perimeter"></a>Perimeter of a Rhombus</h2>
<p>The Perimeter is the distance around the edges.</p>
<table style="border: 0; margin:auto;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><img src="images/rhombus-perim.svg" alt="rhombus perimeter" height="" width=""></td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td>
<p>The Perimeter is <b>4 times "s" (the side length)</b><br>
because all sides are equal in length:</p>
<p class="center larger">Perimeter = 4s</p></td>
</tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="example">
<h3>Example: A rhombus has a side length of 12 cm, what is its Perimeter?</h3>
<p>Perimeter = 4 × 12 cm = <b>48 cm</b></p>
</div>
<h2>Is a Square a Rhombus?</h2>
<p>Yes, because a square is just a rhombus where the angles are all right angles.</p>
<h2>Other Names</h2>
<p>It is more common to call this shape a <b>rhombus</b>, but some people call it a <b>rhomb</b> or even a <b>diamond</b>.</p>
<p>The plural is <b>rhombi</b> or <b>rhombuses</b>, and, rarely, <b>rhombbi</b> or <b>rhombbuses</b> (with a double b).</p>
<p>The name "rhombus" comes from the Greek word <i>rhombos</i>: a piece of wood whirled on a string to make a roaring noise!</p>
