Question

HELP DUE IN 10 MINS! Solve for x in the parallelogram below:

x=??

Answer 1

x = 10

Explanation:

The opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent, then

5x - 9 = 3x + 11 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 9 = 11 ( add 9 to both sides )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10
