Question

How do i solve this it’s geometry

Answer 1

Answer:

x=5, y=11

Step-by-step explanation:

> sum of interior angles of a polygon is (n-2)·180°, where n-is the number of sides, so our rhombus has sum of angles =(4-2)·180° =360°

>we know that the opposite angles are congruent so ...

>we have the sum of interior angles is

108+108+7y-5+7y-5 = 360, combine like terms

14y +206 =360, subtract 206 from both sides

14y = 154, divide both sides by 14

y= 11

>the sides are congruent therefore

4x+17 = 8x-3 , subtract 4x, and add 3 from both sides

17+3 =8x-4x, combine like terms

20 = 4x , divide by 4 both sides

5 =x
