Algebra.Com's Answer #375296 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since ABCD is a rhombus, AB = BC, BC = CD, CD = AD\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Basically, all sides are equal.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So y+20 = 5y+6. Solve this equation for y\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and once you find the value of 'y', use it to find BC or BA. Doing so will give you the value of x since CD = x \n" ); document.write( " |
