A=bh
Remember, height (h) is not the length of the side, but the distance between the bases.
b= base
h=height
A=1/2 bh
As with parallelograms, the height is the length of the altitude.
b= base
h= height
First, you find the average of the bases and multiply it times the height. If the bases have lengths of b1 and b2, then the equation is
A= h 1/2 (b1 + b2)
If a rhombus has diagonals of d1 and d2, then the area =
A=1/2 d1d2
