IN THIS PARALLELOGRAM WE HAVE 2 TRAINGLES AOB AND DOC SO IF WE PROVE THESE TWO TRIANGLES CONGRUENT THEN WE MAY CREATE AN EQUATION TO FIND THE VALUES OF X AND Y
SO....
IN TRIANGLE AOB AND DOC WE HAVE
ANGLE AOB = ANGLE DOC(V. OPPOSITE)
ANGLE OAB = ANGLE OCD ( ALTERNATE INT.)
SIDE AB = SIDE DC (OPPOSITE SIDES OF PARALLELOGRAM)
SO BY ASA CONGRUENCY THESE TWO TRIANGLES ARE CONGRUENT
SO..
THE CORRESPONDING SIDES MUST BE EQUAL ALWAYS BY CPCT...HENCE,
AO=OC
DO=OB
Y=3X-3 ........EQ.1
-2X-4Y=26
(PUTTING THE VALUE OF Y IN THIS EQUATUON WE GET)
-2X-4(3X-3)=26
= -2X-12X+12=26
= -14X= 14
= X= -1 THEREFORE Y = -6
HOPE IT HELPS PLEASE MARK THE ANSWER AS BRAINALIST dont thank the answer just mark as brainalist lmfak
