Question

In a rectangle opposite sides are 2x+1 and 3x-4. Find x?

Answer 1

Answer:

In rectangle opposite sides are congruent.

Hence,

2x+1=3x-4

3x-2x=1+4

x=5

Answer 2

in a rectangle opposite sides are equal.

∴ 2x+1   = 3x-4

  2x-3x = -4-1

    -x     = -5

     x     = 5  [ '-' sign cancels off ]
