Question

In rectangle PQRS, PR = 18x – 28 and QS = x + 380. Find the value of x and the length of each diagonal.

Answer 1

Diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.

18x - 28 = x + 380

Solving for x, I get 17.

So, x = 17.

PR = 18x - 28

PR = 18(17) - 28

PR = 278

QS = x + 380

QS = 17 + 380

QS = 397

Answer 2

Question-

In rectangle PQRS, PR = 18x – 28 and QS = x + 380. Find the value of x and the length of each diagonal.

18x - 28 = x + 380

Answer-

Solving for x, I get 17.

So, x = 17.

PR = 18x - 28

PR = 18(17) - 28

PR = 278

QS = x + 380

QS = 17 + 380

QS = 397
