Question

Adjacent sides of a square are (8m – 10) units and (6m – 4) units. Length of each side is ________ units. Please.......

Answer 1

Answer:38 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

$Adjacent \:sides \:of \:a \: square \: are \\(8m-10) \: units \: and \: ( 6m - 4 ) \: units . \\Length \: of \: each \: side \: is \: \underline{\green { \:14 }} \\units$

Explanation:

/* We know that */

$\blue{ ( Adjacent \: sides \: are \: equal \: in }\\\blue{ a \: square ) }$

$8m - 10 = 6m - 4$

/* Subtract bothsides by 6m , we get */

$\implies 8m - 6m - 10 = 6m - 6m - 4$

$\implies 2m - 10 = - 4$

/* Add bothsides by 10 , we get */

$\implies 2m - 10 + 10 = - 4 + 10$

$\implies 2m = 6$

/* Dividing each term by 2 , we get */

$\implies \frac{2m}{2} = \frac{6}{2}$

$\implies m = 3$

Therefore.,

$\red{ Side \: of \: the \: Square } \\= 8m - 10 \blue{ ( \because m = 3 )}\\= 8 \times 3 - 10 \\= 24 - 10 \\\green { = 14 \: units }$
