Find parallelogram ABCD attached

Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

In parallelograms, the diagonals typically divide each other into 2 equal parts.

This means that from the attached parallelogram, we can say that;

4x - 6 = 2x or 6x - 15 = x

Thus;

4x - 2x = 6

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Let's confirm with the second equation;

6x - x = 15

5x = 15

x = 15/5

x = 3
