Let ABCD be this parallelogram
AB + BC + CD + DA = 50, but AD = BC and AB = DC, Then:
2.AD + 2.AB = 50 and :
AD+AB = 25 . We also know that AB+1 = AD (Given), then:
AD + (AD+1) = 25
2.AD = 24
AD = 12, THEN AB = 12+1=13
Calculate DB the diagonal perpendicular to AD, using Pythagoras:
AD² + DB² = AB²
12² +DB² = 13²
DB² = 13² - 12² = 25
AND DB= 5
The sentence "15% of 4x is 20 less than x"
translates to 0.15 • (4x) = x – 20
Solving that…
0.15(4x) = x - 20 multiplipy 0.15•4
0.6x = x - 20 subtract x from both sides
-0.4x = - 20 divide both sides by -0.4
x = 50
Answer:
It is 60 i believe
