\r\n" );
document.write( "The diagonals of a rhombus (of any rhombus) cut it in 4 (four) congruent right-angled triangles.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "One leg of such triangle is half of one diagonal.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The other leg of such triangle is half of the other diagonal.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So, you have 4 right-angled triangles with the legs of 7 and 8 units each.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then the hypotenuse of each such a triangle is   =  =  = 10.63 units (rounded).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "It is the side length of any of 4 (four) sides of the rhombus.    ANSWER\r\n" );
