Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Area of rhombus = \(\frac{pq}{2}\)
where p and q are the two diagonals of the rhombus.
\(\therefore 60 = \frac{12 \times q}{2}\)
6q = 60 \(\implies\) q = 10 cm
Area of rhombus = \(\frac{pq}{2}\)
where p and q are the two diagonals of the rhombus.
\(\therefore 60 = \frac{12 \times q}{2}\)
6q = 60 \(\implies\) q = 10 cm
