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
