Question

BASE is a rectangle .Its diagonals intersect at 'O'. Find x, if OB = 5x+1 and OE + 2x+4.Then x=

Answer 1

Answer:

Base is $1$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given rectangle,the length of the first diagonal is $5x+1$ and the second diagonal is $2x+1$.

Equate both of the diagonal of rectangle for calculate the value of x are as shown below:

$5x+1=2x+4$

$5x-2x=4-1\\3x=3\\x=1$

Therefore,the value of x=1 satisfying the length of the diagonal of rectangle.Thus the base is $1$.
