The rope

A 68-centimeter-long rope is used to make a rhombus on the ground. The distance between a pair of opposite side corners is 16 centimeters. What is the distance between the other two corners?

Correct answer:

x =  30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

o=68 a=o/4=68/4=17 u=16 a2 = (2u)2+ (2x)2 x=2 a2(2u)2=2 172(216)2=30 cm
