Question

In the rhombus m angle 1=8y - 6 find the value of y

Answer 1

1=8y-6 add 6 to both sides
7=8y and divide by 8 to get y alone
\[y=\frac{7}{8}\]

Answer 2

i think that was supposed to be m(angle 1)=8y-6.

Answer 3

yes sorry

Answer 4

But something else must have been given (measure of another angle, diagonal, something).

Answer 5

Any other piece of information?

Answer 6

all sides are the same length

Answer 7

That's given by the definition of a rhombus...but there has to be some other information about an angle other than angle 1.
