If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are perpendicular bisectors of one another, then the quadrilateral must be a rhombus, but not necessarily a square. Since all rhombi are also parallelograms, quadrilateral ABCD must be both a rhombus and parallelogram.

In order to determine the area of a rhombus you either need a base and a height OR the length of the two diagonals OR the base and an angle. Because we are only given the base with no information about the height, there is not enough information to determine the area of the rhombus.

The formula for the perimeter of a rhombus is:
Where 
is the length of the side
Plugging in our values, we get:

By drawing the diagonals, we create a right triangle with the hypotenuse as 
and the side as

A rhombus is a quadrilateral (
sided figure) with 
congruent sides. The perimeter is the sum of the sides. Thus, to find the perimeter of the rhombus, we multiply the perimeter by 
. This gives us 
meters.
