Answer:
First option: Square with diagonals
and
.
Fifth option: Segment is parallel to segment
.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a square is quadriteral whose sides are equal.
By definition, a square has the following properties:
1) Its four sides are congruent.
2) The diagonals are congruent.
3) The angles formed by the intersection of the diagonals measure 90 degrees.
4) The opposite sides are parallel.
5) Each internal angle measures 90 degrees.
Notice in the figure that:
- The diagonals of the square
are:
and
.
and
are opposite sides, therefore, they are parallel.
To solve for x, we have to remember to isolate the variable.
For 1/2, we can make that 0.5, since their values are equivalent. Our equation:
Let's distribute the 0.5 first.
Now, let's simplify the right side of the equation. We have to distribute the negative to 3x and 1.
Then, we simplify the entire expression.
Our equation now:
Let's add 3x to the right and 3x to the left to simplify the -3x on the right side of the equation.
Let's do the same thing we did in Step 3 to 1.5. Subtract 1.5 on both sides of the equation.
Finally, we divide both sides by 6 to isolate x.
