Question

What are the values of a and b? O a 14, b=6 O a=14, b = 8 O a=17, b = 6 O a = 17, b = 8​

Answer 1

The value of a is 17 and the value of b is 6. The correct option is third option a = 17, b = 6

Calculating the length of the sides of a kite

From the question, we are to determine the values of a and b

From the given kite diagram, we can conclude that

/FG/ = /HG/

Thus,

30 =  2a - 4

∴ 2a - 4 =  30
2a = 30 + 4

2a = 34

a = 34 / 2

a = 17

Also,

/FJ/ = /HJ/

3b + 6 = 24

3b = 24 - 6

3b = 18

b = 18/3

b = 6

Hence, the value of a is 17 and the value of b is 6. The correct option is third option a = 17, b = 6
