Question

Given that IJKL is a square, find x and y.

A. x = 2, y= 8
B. x = 8, y= 2
C. x = 43, y= 2
D. x = 2,y = 43 http://media.education2020.com/evresources/2072187_f94988aa-22b3-453b-9bd1-494dab89be1d.png

Answer 1

the sides labelled in terms of y are equal
and the angle in terms of x = 90

so form 2 equations and solve them to find x and y

Answer 2

since it is a square you would know that the two sides are equal to each other so set 5y+4=3y+8 to solve for y and you know that the angle in the square equals 90 degrees so set 2x+4=90 to solve for x

Answer 3

option d
as square has all angle of 90dergee so 2x+4=90
on solving i get x=43
similarly all sides of square are equal so 3y+8=5y+4
solving i get y=2

Answer 4

you should get y=2 and x=43 so d

Answer 5

wait sorry c

Answer 6

to late but its okay haha

Answer 7

thanks @ses11 m sorry to post wrong option

Answer 8

thank you heybhai,ses11 and cwrw238!
