In the rhombus, mIcon1 = 18x, mIcon2 = x + y, and mIcon3 = 30z. Find the value of each variable. The diagram is not drawn to scale.

@DanJS

OpenStudy (danjs):

ok

OpenStudy (danjs):

All the angles are the same and equal 90 degrees

OpenStudy (danjs):

for a rhombus

OpenStudy (danjs):

18x = 90 x + y = 90 30 z = 90

OpenStudy (danjs):

a quadrilateral in which the diagonals are perpendicular and bisect each other

OpenStudy (danjs):

so x = 90/18 y = 90 - (90/18) z = 90/30

OpenStudy (danjs):

Good?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In rectangle KLMN, KM = 6x + 16 and LN = 49. Find the value of x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldn't you just solve for x 6x =16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@DanJS

OpenStudy (danjs):

ok

OpenStudy (danjs):

yeah KM = LN

OpenStudy (danjs):

6x + 16 = 49

OpenStudy (danjs):

For a rectangle, the diagonals are equal in length

OpenStudy (danjs):

6x = 33

OpenStudy (danjs):

x = 33/6 = 11/2
