You can put this solution on YOUR website!

In a parallelogram, opposite sides MUST be equal.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "And in parallelogram ABCD, AD and BC are indeed opposite sides.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So just set them equal to each other and solve for x:
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"6x-2=2x%2B22\"
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4x-2=22\"
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4x=24\"
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=6\"
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus, the value of x is 6.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We also now know that the length of both AD and BC is 34.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I hope this helps! Keep practicing! :)
