.
The area of a rhombus depends NOT ONLY on the side length.

It depends on the angle between adjacent sides, too.

Without knowing this angle, you may have more than million valid and useless different answers.


==============

My addition after seeing the other post 

     The statement of the other post "Area of the rhombus = square root of its perimeter" is DEADLY WRONG.


     For your safety, simply IGNORE it.

Perimeter of Rhombus= perimeter of square
P=4a
P=4(2)
P=8
Area of Rhombus
A= square root of Perimeter
A= sqrt(8)
A= 2*sqrt(2)
