Area of rectangle = 408 in²
Length = 3x-2 and width = x
The area of a rectangle is given by :
A = lb
(3x-2)x = 408
x = 12 inch and x = -11.33 in
Neglecting negative value,
The width of rectangle = 12 inch
The length of rectangle = 3x-2 = 3(12)-2 = 34 inch
12.
Base of triangle = 2x+2
Height = x
The area of a triangle is given by :
x = 24 cm and x = -25 cm
Neglecting negative value, x = 24 cm
Base = 2x+2 = 2(24)+2 = 50 cm
Hence, this is the required solution.

A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. The correct option is A.
<h3>What is a parallelogram?</h3>A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. Thus, a parallelogram is always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral can or cannot be a parallelogram.
For a parallelogram, the pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel. Therefore,
1.) For the first pair.
(x+8) = 15
x = 7
2.) For the second pair
(x+2)=(2x-5)
x + 2 = 2x - 5
2 + 5 = 2x - x
x = 7
(x+2) = (7+2) = 9
Since the measure of the pair of opposite sides is 15 units, the pair of the other two sides measure 9 units.
Hence, the correct option is A.
