Question

Find values of x and y for which ABCD must be a parallelogram. The diagram is not drawn to scale.

Answer 1

With any parallelogarm, the diagonal bisect each other, so basically, the diagonals cut each other in half

so, this means
4y - 7 = y + 14

and

4x -2  = x + 28

hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

The intersection point of both diagonals divides the diagonal AC in two equal parts.

$4x-2=x+28$

$4x-x=2+28$

$3x=30$

$x=10$

The value of x is 10.

The intersection point of both diagonals divides the diagonal BD in two equal parts.

$4y-7=y+14$

$4y-y=7+14$

$3y=21$

$y=7$

The value of y is 7.

Therefore the correct option is C.
