\n" ); document.write( "FK = JH = 6, so the radius of the circle is OF+FK = OF+JH = 21.

\n" ); document.write( "OC is also a radius of the circle, so OC = 21.

\n" ); document.write( "Then triangle OFC is a right triangle and we know OF=15 and OC=21; the Pythagorean Theorem then tells us

\n" ); document.write( "\"FC+=+sqrt%2821%5E2-15%5E2%29+=+sqrt%28441-225%29+=+sqrt%28216%29+=+6%2Asqrt%286%29\"

\n" ); document.write( "Then the diagonals of the rhombus are 30 and 12*sqrt(6).

\n" ); document.write( "The area of a rhombus is half the product of the diagonals:

\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+%281%2F2%29%2830%29%2812%2Asqrt%286%29%29+=+180%2Asqrt%286%29\"
