Question

4. Find PQ. N Р 5x + 16 S R 9x - 32 Q​

Answer 1

76

Explanation:

PQRS is a Rhombus.

Property of Rhombus : -

All sides are equal.

So,

PQ = QR = RN = NP

RN = 5x + 16

QR = 9x - 32

QR = RN

5x + 16 = 9x - 32

9x - 32 = 5x + 16

9x - 5x = 16 + 32

4x = 48

x = 48 / 4

x = 12

Substitute x = 12 in RN,

RN = 5x + 16

= 5 ( 12 ) + 16

= 60 + 16

RN = 76

Since,

PQ = QR = RN = NP

Therefore,

PQ = 76
