Question

LMNO is a parallelogram. If NM = x + 5 and OL = 2x + 3, find the value of x and then find NM and OL.

Answer 1

Answer:

X= 2

MN=Ol= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite sides of parallelogram is equal

NM = OL

NM = X+5

OL = 2x+3

X+5 =2x+3

X-2x = 3-5

- X = -2

X = 2

Hence MN = X+5

= 2+5

= 7

OL = 2x +3

= 2× 2 + 3

= 7
