Question

GEOMETRY HELP PLEASE!! WILL MARK BRAINLEIST! 4

Answer 1

Answer:

QX = 5.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get QX

For a rectangle, the length of the parallel sides are equal

Thus,

SR will be 8 too

Since x is the midpoint of SR, we have it that RX is 4 too

The angle at each corner of the rectangle is 90 degrees each

Thus,

QRX is a right triangle

Mathematically, QX is the hypotenuse of this triangle as it is the side that faces the right angle

According to Pythagoras’ ; the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

thus;

Qx^2 = 4^2 + 4^2

QX^2 = 32

QX = √(32)

QX = 5.7 units
