| The perimeter of a rhombus: |
|
To find the perimeter of a rhombus, just add up all the lengths of the sides:
|
|
|
| The area of a rhombus: |
| To find the area of a rhombus, multiply the lengths of the two diagonals and divide by 2 (same as multiplying by 1/2):
|

| The sides and angles of a rhombus: |
|
The sides of a rhombus are all congruent (the same length.) Opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent (the same size and measure.) |
