ABCD is rectangle. Find the length of each diagonal AC=c/3 BD=4-c

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, so set the expressions equal and solve the equation for c. Then divide c by 3 to get AC.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The diagonals of a rectangle are always equal, therefore, c/3 is equal to 4-c. Set these equal and solve: \[c/3=4-c\] Once you solve for c, plug it back into either equation to get the length of the diagonals. If you'd like more help let me know.

multiple both sides by 3?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

yes
