|
||
<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>

<h3>Example: A rhombus has diagonals of 6 m and 8 m, what is its Area?</h3>

<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>
