Answer: A kite is generally not considered a parallelogram. A kite is usually defined as having two sets of consecutive congruent sides. If the definition includes the phrase two DISTINCT sets of congruent sides it will not be a parallelogram, as the opposite sides will not be congruent.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Define x:</u>
Let one of the numbers be x.
The other number is x + 2
<u>Construct equation:</u>
<span>twice the smaller is 16 more than the larger
</span>⇒2x = x + 2 - 16
<u>Solve x:</u>
2x = x + 2 - 16
x = -14
<u>Find the two numbers:</u>
Smaller number = x = -14
Larger number = x + 2 = -12
Answer: The two numbers are -14 and -12
