document.write( "If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, then the parallelogram is a rhombus.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "In this case, the diagonals divide the rhombus in four congruent right-angled triangles.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "For each such a triangle, the legs are 6/2 = 3 units and 8/2 = 4 units;\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "hence, the sides of the rhombus are  \"sqrt%283%5E2+%2B+4%5E2%29\" = 5 units long, and its perimeter is 5*4 = 20 units.\r\n" );
