Since A is the midpoint of BC, we can assume BA and AC are equal to each other.

We also know that BC = BA + AC = 23 + 23 = 46

Since A is the midpoint of BC, A divides BA and AC equally.
Therefore, BA=AC.
Since BA=AC,
3x+8=23
Or, 3x= 23-8
Or, 3x= 15
Or, x=15/3
Therefore, x=5.
Ans: x=5.

Complete the statement using always, sometimes, or never. A rectangle is __________________ a rhombus.

Lesechka [4]

Hi!

A rectangle can sometimes be a rhombus if it has sides of all equal lengths. If a rectangle was a rhombus, it would also be a square. Furthermore, a square is always a rhombus.

Hope this helps! :)
