Question

In the diagram below of parallelogram STUV, SV = x + 3,VU = 2x - 1, and TU = 4x - 3.What is the length of SV?

Answer 1

in this parallelogram side TU and side SV will be equal

so, TU = SV

4x - 3 = x +3

4x - x = 3 + 3

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

so the length of SV is,

SV = x + 3, put x = 2

SV = 2 + 3

SV = 5

so the length of SV is 5
