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.
