Draw rhombus BEST with the following measurements and calculate its area.

BE = 5 cm and BS = 8 cm.

Step 1 – Draw a Line BE of length 5 cm


Step 2 – Draw a circle of Radius 8 cm centered at B.



Step 3 – Draw a circle of radius 5 cm centered at E.


The intersection point of the two circle gives the point S.



Step 4 – Draw lines BT and ST parallel to ES and EB respectively both of length 5 cm.



Measure the lengths of its Diagonals D1 and D2 and then find the area by


Area =
