Hi hope this helps! Answer in the picture
The length of tr is 17 units. what are the lengths of sv and qt? sv = units qt = units
1 answer:
Applying the properties of kite, the measures are: SV = 41 units; QT = 21 units.
<h3>What is a kite?</h3>A kite is a quadrilateral that has 2 pairs of congruent adjacent sides, and has two diagonals where the longest one bisects the shorter one and divides it into equal segments.
The diagram given is a kite. Where TR = 17 units. Thus we would solve for x using the equation as shown below:
TR = RV [congruent adjacent sides of the kite]
Plug in the values
17 = 3x + 2
17 - 2 = 3x
15 = 3x
15/3 = x
x = 5
SV = TS = 9x - 4 [congruent adjacent sides of the kite]
Plug in the value of x
SV = 9(5) - 4
SV = 41 units
The length of segment QT is 41 units.
QT = QV = 4x + 1 [congruent adjacent sides of the kite]
Plug in the value of x
QT = 4(5) + 1
QT = 21 units
The length of segment QT is: 21 units.
