Question

The perimeter of a figure having equal side is 5x + 5y and one of its side is x + y.find the number of side in figure​

Answer 1

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = sum of all sides

given : all sides are equal

let number of sides = A

so, perimeter = side * A

5x + 5y = ( x + y ) * A

5(x + y) = ( x + y ) * A

cancel x+y on both sides

A = 5

Therefore,

the figure has 5 sides
