Question

Find the value of x and y. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST

Answer 1

Answer:

x=7

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a parallelogram

2x-2 =12

and 2y =8

2x-2=12

Add 2 to each side

2x-2+2 =12+2

2x = 14

Divide by 2

2x/2 =14/2

x = 7

2y =8

Divide by 2

2y/2 =8/2

y =4

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 7

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the values of x and y, you need to set them equal to its congruent pair. On the parallelogram, you can see that there are two pairs of sides that are the same length, so set them equal to one another, like so:

2x - 2 = 12

Add 2 to both sides:

2x = 14

Divide 2 by both sides:

x = 7

Solving for y:

2y = 8

Divide both sides by 2:

y = 4
