Answer:
C. 10 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The half diagonals of a rhombus are the legs of a right triangle with the hypotenuse being the side of the rhombus.
EG and FH are the diagonals of the rhombus. The half-diagonals measure 8 and 6.
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse length with is the length of the side of the rhombus.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + 6^2 = c^2
64 + 36 = c^2
100 = c^2
c^2 = 100
c = 10

Step-by-step explanation:
EFGH is a rhombus.
Rhombus E F G H is shown. Diagonals are drawn from point E to point G and from point F to point H. All sides are congruent.
Given EG = 16 and FH = 12, what is the length of one side of the rhombus?
6 units
8 units
10 units
14 units
