The rhombus is quadrilateral whose:

i) diagonals are perpendicular

AND

ii) lengths of all sides are equal.


So, by the definition of being a rhombus, |WX|=|XZ|

thus, 

4a+12=6a
12=2a
a=6


Answer: 6

In the diagram below, x is a whole number. what is the smallest possible value for x?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The smallest possible value for x is 9\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Triangle Inequality Theorem</u>. states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side

so

x+x>17\\2x>17\\x>8.5\ units

The value of x must be greater than  8.5\ units

so

If x must be a whole number

therefore

The smallest possible value for x is 9\ units
