Answer:

Therefore the lengths of the opposite side pairs.

C) 18, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram

AB = 6x

DC = x + 15

AD = 9

BC = 3y

TO Find:

AB = ?

BC = ?

Solution:

Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram ..........Given

∴ Both pairs of opposite sides of a Parallelogram are congruent.

∴ AB = DC   and AD = BC

substituting the values we get

6x=x+15\\6x-x=15\\5x=15\\x=\dfrac{15}{5}\\ x=3\\and\\9=3y\\y=\dfrac{9}{3}\\ y=3

substituting the x' and 'y' values we get

AB= 6\times 3=18\\and\\BC=3\times 3=9

Therefore the lengths of the opposite side pairs.

C) 18, 9

Which possibly forms a triangle
svp [43]

Answer:

C. 17, 12, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater then the length of the third side. If you can show any two segments, the sum of whose lengths is less than the length of the third segment, that cannot form a triangle.

In choices A, B, and D, there is at least one sum of the lengths of two segments that is less then the length of the third segment. That shows that choices A, B, and D cannot form triangles.

A. 8 + 7 = 15 < 16 No

B. 9 + 7 = 16 = 16 No

D. 11 + 5 = 16 < 17 No

C.

17 + 12 = 29 > 7

12 + 7 = 19 > 17

17 + 7 = 24 > 12

Yes
