SOLUTION: Use rhombus XYZW with m<WYZ=53, Vw=3, XV=2a-2, and ZV= 5a+1 over --> /4

Question 701230: Use rhombus XYZW with m /4

The diagonals of a parallogram bisect each other,
so we set the measure of XV equal to the measure of ZV

 2a-2 = 

Multiply both sides by 4

 8a-8 = 5a+1
   3a = 9
    a = 3

So the measure of XV is 2a-2 or 2(3)-2 = 4,
wjich is also the measure of ZV:

   . 

There was no need to be given the 53� angle.
