Answer:

y = 3 cm and x = 2.5 cm

Explanation:

As we can see it is a parallelogram so

y = 3 cm (being opposite sides of parallelogram)

Now while calculating the diagonal we can use the Pythagoras relation. i.e

perpendicular (p) = 4 cm (IH)

Base (b) = 3 cm (FI)

Hypotenuse (h) = FH = ?

We know by using Pythagoras theorem

h = √ p² + b²

= √ 4² + 3²

= √ 25

= 5 cm

Here we got FH = 5 cm

so the value of x will be 2.5 cm as the diagonal bisects.

Hope it will help :)
