bc. how ve wrote above the diagonales are congruent - so make this expressions equal and try solve it for y
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
6y-1 = 4y+13
OpenStudy (devonhoward15):

why ?
6y-4y = ?
OpenStudy (devonhoward15):
2y?
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
= 2y
and on the right side 4y-4y = 0
yes ?
OpenStudy (devonhoward15):
yes
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
so will get
2y-1 = 13 now add to both sides 1 so what will get ?

2y-1+1=13+1
OpenStudy (devonhoward15):
ok
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
2y=14 divide both sides by 2 and will get ?
OpenStudy (devonhoward15):
1y=7
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
yes sure
y=7
