2x+2

x+11

A. x = 9, y = 14; 11, 20

B. x = 14, y = 9; 11, 11

C. x = 14, y = 9; 6, 16

D. x = 9, y = 14; 6, 16

Sagot :

Answer:

So, the correct option is A. x = 9, y = 14 , Sides are 11 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - the exact question is -

As given in the question ,

Side AB = Side AD

⇒y - 3 = x + 2

⇒y - x = 2 + 3 = 5

⇒y - x = 5                        .........(1)

Also, given

Side BC = Side CD

⇒2x + 2 = x + 11

⇒2x - x = 11 - 2

⇒x = 9

∴ equation (1) becomes

y - 9 = 5

⇒y = 5 + 9 = 14

⇒y = 14

∴ we get

x = 9, y = 14

Now,

as given ,

Side AB = y - 3

⇒ AB = 14 - 3 = 11

Side BC = 2x + 2

⇒ BC = 2(9) + 2 = 18 + 2 = 20

Side CD = x + 11

⇒ CD = 9 + 11 = 20

Side DA = x + 2

⇒DA = 9 + 2 = 11

∴ we get

The sides are 11 and 20

So,

The correct option is A. x = 9, y = 14 , Sides are 11 and 20
