Find The Values Of The Variables And The Lengths Of The Sides Of This Kite Image Attachedthank You class=

Sagot :

Given:

Given that a kite having the lengths

[tex]\begin{gathered} y-4 \\ x+5 \\ 2x+5 \\ x+12 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Required:

To find the value of the variable and the lengths of the sides of the kite.

Explanation:

From the given figure

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x+5=x+12 \\ \\ 2x-x=12-5 \\ \\ x=7 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now the length of the sides become

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x+5=2(7)+5 \\ =14+5 \\ =19 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} x+12=7+12 \\ =19 \end{gathered}[/tex]

And

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+5=7+5 \\ =12 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now the value of y is

[tex]\begin{gathered} y-4=12 \\ y=12+4 \\ y=16 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Final Answer:

The value of variable is

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=7 \\ y=16 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The sides lengths are 12,12,19 and 19.
