if nm = 8x - 14 and jk = x squared + 1, find JK

Sagot :

A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. The length of Jk can be either 10 or 26.

What is a rectangle?

A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. A rectangle is always a parallelogram and a quadrilateral but the reverse statement may or may not be true.

Since in a rectangle the opposite sides are equal, therefore, the sides NM and JK will be equal.

JK = MN

8x - 14 = x² + 1

0 = x² - 8x + 15

x = 5, 3

Hence, the length of Jk can be either 10 or 26.
