Answer 2

well, the length from A to center = 2x-2
and from center to C = x-2
if it's a parallelalelogram, then the A to center = center to C
or
2x-2 = x-2

now solve for x

Answer 3

x=2

Answer 4

2x-2 = x-2
2x-2-x = -2
x-2 = -2
x-2+2 = -2+2
x = 0.... mmm let me look over this question somemore

Answer 5

ok ok, ya we are doing it right, now do the other diagonal the same way

so,
5y-8 = y+24

Answer 6

y=8

Answer 7

yep!

Answer 8

DUN ^_^

Answer 9

thanks! and the x-2 was a + i didnt see the| line

Answer 10

gottcha ^_^
