find the area of a rhombus in python

To find the area of a rhombus in Python, you need to know the length of its diagonals. Here's an example code that calculates the area of a rhombus:

main.py
import math

diagonal1 = 10
diagonal2 = 8

area = (diagonal1 * diagonal2) / 2

print("The area of the rhombus is:", area)
122 chars
9 lines

In this example, we first import the math module to use the sqrt() function later on. We then assign the values of the diagonals to variables diagonal1 and diagonal2.

To calculate the area, we use the formula for the area of a rhombus which is:

main.py
Area = (diagonal1 * diagonal2) / 2
35 chars
2 lines

We then print out the result using the print() function.

Note that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular and bisect each other.
