Mehek (mehek14):

\(8a-3=19\) do you know how to solve for the variable?

Since this is an isoceles trapezoid that would mean that the two diagnoals are equal so....\[8a-3=19\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so what does that mean for trying to figure out the problem?

Mehek (mehek14):

well, you have to get the variable by itself \(8a-3=19\) do you know how to solve for the variable?

563blackghost (563blackghost):

@Mehek14 I think its best to tell them on how you got that equation... and explain how to set it up from the given picture...

Mehek (mehek14):

|dw:1453083276201:dw| therefore \(8a-3=19\)
