Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given a parallelogram ABCD.
For a parallelogram,
Opposite pair of sides are parallel to each other.
i.e AD is parallel to BC and AB is parallel to CD.
From the attached figure,
∡1 = ∡4 and ∡2 = ∡3 {If two parallel lines cut by a transversal line then alternate interior angles are congruent }
Next, AC ≅ AC {Reflexive identity}
hence, ΔABC ≅ ΔCDA , By Angle-Side-Angle(ASA) congruent property of triangle.
Therefore, AB = CD and AD = BC {Proved}
A=10, B=11, C=12, etc.
Now, the "only" thing that remains to do is solving the above equation.
While making this problem I only made sure it has a solution. I didn't try to solve it myself and I didn't know it will end up with such "convoluted" polynomial. Sorry to everyone who tried to solve it... m(_ _)m
I think the best way to approach it is using the rational root theorem since we know that . Moreover we can deduce that
since there is
and
.
After you succesfully solve it, you should get the answer .
