Question

EFGH is a parallelogram. Find the given side length. Please help

Answer 1

(a). 35 units ; (b). 44 units

Explanation:

(a). 7y - 14 = 2y + 21 ⇒ y = 7

EF = 7(7) - 14 = 35 units

(b). EJ = JG

15x + 7 = 12x + 10 ⇒ x = 1

EG = 2 × (15(1) + 7) = 44 units

Answer 2

EF=35

EG=22

Explanation:

EF

7y-14=2y+21

5y=35

y=7

EF=7(7)-14=49-14=35

EG

15x+7=12x+10

3x=3

x=1

EG=15(1)+7=15+7=22
