Question

In a rectangle abcd ,ab =x+y,bc=x_y,cd=9,ad=3find value of x&y

Answer 1

Answer: x=6 and y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=9 (opposite side of a rectangle)......(i)

x-y=3 (opposite side of a rectangle).......(ii)

Now, adding i and ii,

X + Y = 9

X -- Y = 3

2x+ 0 = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6

and now, putting value of x in (i)

6 + y = 9

y = 9-6

y = 3
