Question

What value of m would make parallelogram wxyz a square?
2
3
4
5

Answer 1

A) m = 2

Explanation:

If the given parallelogram wxyz is a square, then all the sides must be equal in measure.

Therefore, 2m + 4 = m + 6

Now let's find the value of m.

Isolate the variable and constant.

Step 1: Subtract m from both sides, we get

2m - m + 4 = m - m + 6

m + 4 = 6

Step 2: Subtract 4 from both sides, we get

m + 4 - 4 = 6 - 4

m = 2

Therefore, when m =2 the given figure wxyz become a square.
