Question

in the figure ABCD is a rectangle,find the values of x and y​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:Quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.

sideAD=14cm and sideAB=30cm

sideAB=sideDC=30cm.....opp. sides of a rectangle

sideAD=sideBC=14cm.....opp. sides of a rectangle

∴x+y=30.......(1)...given

and x-y=14......(2)....given

adding eq. (1) and (2)

 x+y=30

+x-y=14

----------------

2x=44

x=44/2

x=22

put x=22 in eq. (1)

x+y=30

22+y=30

y=30-22

y=8

∴x=22 and y=8
