Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

value of a is given by

a+4=2a simplifting for a gives;

a=4

value of b is given

by 2b-3=b

simplifying givess b=3

PR= ( 4+4) + 2*4= 16

QS= 3+(2*3-3)= 6

Since it is a parallelogram cente at point T, then the measure of PT is equal to the measure of TR. And the measure of QT is equal to the measure of TS.

PT = TR

a + 4 = 2a

4 = 2a -a

a = 4

PT = TR = 8 units

QT = TS

b = 2b -3

3 = 2b – b

b = 3

<span>QT = TS = 3 units</span>

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: The length of the ladder is 20 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A ladder is leaning against a building so that the distance from the ground to the top of the ladder is 8 feet less than the length of the ladder.

Mathematically,

Let x be the length of the ladder then

Distance from ground to the top of the ladder = x- 8

If distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building is 16 feet.

Since ground makes right angle with building , so the triangle made by ladder should be a right triangle.

By Pythagoras theorem of right triangle , we hae

$(Hypotenuse)=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2$

$\Rightarrow\ x^2=(x-8)^2+16^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2=x^2+64-16x+256\ [\text{Using identity :} (a-b)^2=a^+b^2-2ab]\\\\\Rightarrow 0=-16x+320\\\\\Rightarrow\ 16x=320\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{320}{16}=20$

Hence, the length of the ladder is 20 feet.

If BE = 2x + 2, BD = 5× - 3, and AE = 4× - 6, what are the values of x and AC?

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

x = 7

AC = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

According to the parallelogram,

BD = 2BE

5x-3 = 2(2x+2)

5x-3 = 4x+4

5x-4x = 4+3

x = 7

Hence the value of x is 7

Also AC = 2AE

AC = 2(4x-6)

AC = 8x - 12

AC = 8(7) - 12

AC= 56-12

AC = 44

Hence the measure of AC is 44
