The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other. The diagonals of a rhombus, along with the included sides, create four right triangles with legs that are one-half the measures of the diagonals.



You can do your own arithmetic. Don't forget that the answer should be expressed in square feet.
