Rhombus Area Calculator

Find a rhombus's area from its two diagonals.

Area 24

Side length 5

Formula: area = ½ · d₁ · d₂

Step-by-step with your numbers:

1. Values used:

2. Diagonal 1 = 6

3. Diagonal 2 = 8

5. Area = 24

6. Side length = 5

Did we solve your problem today?

A rhombus is a diamond shape; its area is half the product of its diagonals.

The math behind it

area = ½·d₁·d₂. The diagonals bisect each other at right angles, so the side is √((d₁/2)² + (d₂/2)²).

Diagonals 6 and 8 → area 24, side 5.

Is a square a rhombus?

Yes — a square is a rhombus with right angles (equal diagonals).
