Question

Consider kite FGHJ. What are the values of a and b?

Answer 1

Hmmm... interesting on my final I answered B: a=14, b=8 and got it wrong but, when I did it again I got C: a=17, b=6

Step-by-step explanation

Answer 2

The value of a=17 cm and b=6 cm

C is correct option.

Explanation:

Given: FGHJ is a kite.

Kite has property their adjacent sides are equal. Top two side of the kite is equal and bottom two side of the kite is equal.

FG=GH because ∠F=∠H.

30=2a-4

2a=34

a=17 cm

Similarly, ∠F=∠H

FJ=HJ

3b+6=24

3b=18

b=6 cm

Hence, The value of a=17 cm and b=6 cm
