Question

Find the X and Y for the given kite

Answer 1

• x = 9
• y = 5

Explanation:

PQ = QR Property of a kite

x + 4 = 13 Subtract 4 from both sides

x = 13 -4 Combine the right.

x = 9

3y+5 = x + 11 Put 9 in for x

3y + 5 = 9 + 11 Combine the right side

3y + 5 = 20 Subtract 5 from both sides

3y = 20 - 5 Combine the right

3y = 15 Divide by 3

3y/3 = 15/3

y = 5
