abcd is a rectangle find the valie of x and y
Answers
Hey dear here is your answer!!!!!
___________________________
We have been given that ABCD is a rectangle:-
Therefore, AB = DC and AB = DC
We would be forming two equations to solve this question:-
Since, AD = BC
So, x - y = 14
And, DC = AB
So, x + y = 30
Now, that we have two equation, we would be adding them as follows:-
( x - y ) + ( x + y ) = 44
x - y + x + y = 44
Add the like terms:-
2x = 44
x =
x = 22
Now, substitute the value of x in any of the equations:-
(22) + y = 30
y = 30 - 22
y = 8
So, the values of x and y are 22 and 8 respectively!

Since ABCD is a rectangle, AB=CD and AD=BC.
Given, AB=30
hence, CD=30
Given, CD=x+y
30=x+y
x=30-y .......(1)
Given, AD=14
hence, BC=14
Given, BC=x-y
14=x-y
Substituting the value of x in BC from equation (1),
14=(30-y)-y
14=30-2y
2y=30-14
2y=16
y=16/2
y=8
x-y=14
x-8=14
x=14+8
x=22
Thus, x=22 and y=8.
