Answer
Given, ABCD is a rhombus, diagonal AC = 16 cm and diagonal BD = 12 cm.
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.
∴ ∠AOB = 90°
Each diagonal is divided into two equal segments.
∴ AC = 16 cm ⇒ AO = OC = = 8 cm
∴ BD = 12 cm ⇒ BO = OD = = 6 cm
According to Pythagoras theorem, in a right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.
⇒ Hypotenuse2 = Base2 + Height2
In Δ AOB,
⇒ AB2 = BO2 + OA2
⇒ AB2 = 62 + 82
⇒ AB2 = 36 + 64
⇒ AB2 = 100
⇒ AB =
⇒ AB = 10 cm
According to formula, perimeter of rhombus = 4 x length of side
= 4 x 10
= 40 cm.
∴ Statement 1 is false, and statement 2 is true.
Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
