Question

The length of diagonals of rhombus are 6 cm and 8 cm, the length of sides is?

Answer 1

Pake rumus phytagoras.
dicari s (sisi miring)
s kuadrat = 1/2 d1 kuadrat + 1/2 d2 kuadrat
              = 1/2 6 kuadrat + 1/2 8 kuadrat
              = 3 kuadrat + 4 kuadrat
               = 9 + 16
s             = akar dari 9 + 16
               = 5 cm

Answer 2

Instead of using pythagorean formula, you can simply use concept of pythagorean triplets.
If u slice the rhombus by the diagonals, you will have 4 congruent right angled triangles, which in your case, it's 3cm of base n 4 cm of height... therefore, finding the side of the rhombus is such as finding the hypotenuse of the triangle. Just use 3,4,5 pythagorean triplets u'll know that the length of hypotenuse (as well as the length of side of rhombus) is 5 cm.
