area of the rhombus is 96 cm2 .
Sol : But +A = +C
True. We know that diagonals of a rhombus bisect [Opposite angles of a parallelogram]
each other at right angle.
` +1 = +C ...(1)
But +C + +D = 180c
[Sum of co-interior angles on same side is 180c]
[From eq.(1)]
& +1 + +D = 180c
Thus, the quadrilateral QCDP is cyclic.
So, the points P , Q , C and D are concyclic.
