The opposite sides of the rhombus are parallel in nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since all the sides of the rhombus have equal length, then its perimeter will be <strong>4 * length of one side<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will use the following approaches to find the perimeter of the rhombus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Using Standard Method<\/li><li>Using Functions<\/li><li>Using
