To calculate the area of the rhombus:

Using the base and height: We multiply the base with height to get the area of a rhombus.

Area of rhombus

$= b \times h$ square units.

Where '

$b$ ' is denoted as base, and '

$h$ ' is denoted as height.

Using the diagonals: We multiply both the diagonals, and then divide by

$2$ to get the area of a rhombus.

Area of rhombus

$= \frac{1}{2} d_{1} \times d_{2}$ square units.

Where '

$d$ ' is denoted as diagonals.
