Answer:
DU = 86
Step-by-step explanation:
Properties of a rectangle,
- Opposite sides are equal in measure.
- Diagonals of a rectangle are equal.
- Diagonals bisect each other.
In the given rectangle QUAD,
Diagonals AQ and DU bisect each other at P.
AQ = DU
2(QP) = DU [Since, AQ = 2(PQ)]
2(2x + 7) = 5x - 4
4x + 14 = 5x - 4
5x - 4x = 14 + 4
x = 18
Since, DU = 5x - 4
DU = 5(18) - 4
= 90 - 4
= 86
Therefore, measure of DU = 86 units
