Question

Given parallelograms ABCD, AC=22, and AE=2x-5, find the value of x.

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other , then

2 AE = AC ( substitute values )

2(2x - 5) = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

2x - 5 = 11 ( add 5 to both sides )

2x = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 8
