Answer 2

Dear user

ur answer follows......


Given=NICE is a parallelogram

NI=2a+6cm

EC=3a-10cm

NO=2b

OC=26cm


To find= value of a and b


In parallelogram NICE

NI=EC [opp sides in a parallelogram are equal]

therefore

2a+6=3a-10
3a-2a=6+10
a=16 cm


Also

NO=OC [ diagonal bisect each other in a parallelogram ]

therefore

2b=26
b=26/2
b=13 cm


value of a=16cm
value of b=13 cm




Hope it will help u
