For what value of x is ABCD a rhombus, if m
What did she say at 0:11 in this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmT6srqyGGQ
Considering the angles, \(\begin{array}{ccc}&\angle\;DAC&=&\angle\;CAB\\&3x+4&=&4x-3\\&x&=&7\end{array}\)
answer mine first
Can you help me with my geometry ? @Sachintha
Sure.
ABCD is a trapezoid. Find the value of x and y .
Do you know the total of the angles inside the trapezoid?
no
Angles inside the trapezoid add up to \({}360^0\). So can you form up an equation with this?
Ohh you don't need to consider that. There's a much easier way.
Form equations. |dw:1464256260814:dw|
huh? that adds up 360...?
Yeah. \(127^0+x+74^0+y = 360^0\) or \(127^0+x=180^0\) and \(74^0+y=180^0\)
I'm doing something wrong ..
What?
never mind .
Didn't you get how every angle adds up to 360 or else..?
yes,I just got a little confused for a moment
When you cut the shape with a diagonal you get two triangles each with the sum of interior angles adding up to 180. So 2*180 = 360 |dw:1464256859322:dw|
okay...
Solve these two to get the values of x and y. \(127^0+x = 180^0\) \(74^0+y = 180^0\)
I used here allied angles to form the equations. |dw:1464257919727:dw|
