A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. The correct option is A.
<h3>What is a parallelogram?</h3>
A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. Thus, a parallelogram is always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral can or cannot be a parallelogram.
For a parallelogram, the pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel. Therefore,
1.) For the first pair.
(x+8) = 15
x = 7
2.) For the second pair
(x+2)=(2x-5)
x + 2 = 2x - 5
2 + 5 = 2x - x
x = 7
(x+2) = (7+2) = 9
Since the measure of the pair of opposite sides is 15 units, the pair of the other two sides measure 9 units.
Hence, the correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 3x + 2
x² + x + 2x + 2 because 1+2=3 and 2×1=2
By taking out common terms, we get
x(x+1)+2(x+1)
(x+1)(x+2)

Answer:
5cm by 1.95cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the rectangle be x
Let the width be y
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2x + 2y
If the initial perimeter of a rectangle is about 13.9 cm, then;
13.9 = 2x + 2y ..... 1
If when the width is double the perimeter is 17.8cm, then;
17.8 = 2x + 4y ..... 2
Subtract 1 from 2;
13.9 - 17.8 = 2y - 4y
- 3.9 = -2y
y = 3.9/2
y = 1.95 cm
Substitute y = 1.95 into 1 to get x;
From 1;
13.9 = 2x + 2y
13.9 = 2x + 2(1.95)
13.9 = 2x + 3.9
2x = 13.9-3.9
2x = 10
x = 5 cm
Hence the dimension of the smaller triangle is 5cm by 1.95cm
