To find the area of a rhombus, we use the formula: Area = (diagonal 1 * diagonal 2) / 2
In this case, we have to find the lengths of the diagonals of the rhombus. Let's denote the diagonals as d1 and d2.
From the given picture, we can see that d1 = 8 inches and d2 = 13 inches.
Now we can plug these values into the formula:
Area = (8 * 13) / 2
Area = 104 / 2
Area = 52 square inches
The correct answer is not listed among the options provided. The closest one is option A (105.6 square inches), but the correct answer should be 52 square inches.
