Find the value of x for which ABCD must be a parallelogram.

1 answer:

4 0

For a parallelogram, the parallel sides must be the same length. This means you can set their lengths equal to each other. Get like terms on the same side to calculate x.

3x-5=2x+3
3x-5+5=2x+3+5
3x=2x+8
3x-2x=2x-2x+8
x=8

x=8

Jason had to replace the floor of a triangular portion of his dining room. The portion had a height that was twice as high as th

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the the area of a triangle can be represented as $\frac{bh}{2}$ .

Since the height is twice the base, we can substitute the value $2b$ in as $h$ in the expression, making it $\frac{b\cdot2b}{2}$ . If the area is 16, we can make the equation

$\frac{b\cdot2b}{2} = 16$

Now to solve for b.

$\frac{2b^2}{2} = 16\\\frac{2b^2}{2}\cdot2 = 16\cdot2\\\\2b^2 = 32\\\\2b^2\div2 = 32\div2\\\\b^2 = 16\\\\b=4$

Hope this helped!
