The calculated value of the variable x in the rectangle is 4

How to determine the value of the variable x

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The rectangle

Also, we have

AB = 5x - 6

BC = 3x + 2

The segments AB and BC are bisections of the diagonal AC

This means that

AB = BC

So, we have

5x - 6 = 3x + 2

This gives

2x = 8

Evaluate

x = 4

Hence, the value of x is 4
