Question

Find the length of the diagonals of the isosceles trapezoid if AC = x + 1 and DB = 2x - 3

Answer 1

Hint: the diagonals are equal.

Answer 2

So should I do x + 1 = 2x -3? Then x would be the length?

Answer 3

No, x will not be the length. Solve for x, then I'd explain how to do the rest.

Answer 4

Alright, thanks for helping me. I have x = 4.

Answer 5

That's right! So the diagonal is x + 1 right? What's x + 1 here?

Answer 6

Remember that if x = 4, then x + 1 = 4 + 1.

Answer 7

x + 1 = 5

Answer 8

That's the answer!

Answer 9

Ah! It's 5!

Answer 10

Thanks man.

Answer 11

Yeah, yw.
