Step We have been told that the diagonals of the rhombus are 14 cm and 10 cm Therefore, the area of the rhombus = = 140 = 70 cm Therefore, the area of the rhombus is 70 cm. Copyright 017

5 () 6 cm ID : in-8-mensuration [5] Since the cuboid is made by melting the cylinder, the volume of the cuboid is equal to the volume of the cylinder. Step It is given that the radius, and height of the cylinder are 4 cm, 1 cm respectively. Therefore, the volume of the cylinder = πr h = cm 3 = 1056 cm 3 Let s assume the length, breadth and height of the cuboid are l, b and h respectively. It is given that, l = 16 cm b = 11 cm The volume of the cuboid = l b h = h = 176h Since volume of cylinder is equal to that of cuboid, 176h = 1056 h = h = 6 cm Step 5 Therefore, the height of the cuboid is 6 cm.
