Solution :
The length of each side
The length of each side of the rhombus is
Let the diagonals of the rhombus as
Since the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, it forms a right triangle with half the length of one diagonal as the base, half the length of the other diagonal as the height, and the side of the rhombus as the hypotenuse.
Using the Pythagorean theorem,
The diagonals of the rhombus are
The area of a rhombus =
Hence, the correct answer is 1536.
