Consider kite FGHJ What are the values of a and b? a = 14, b= 6

a = 14, b = 8

a = 17, b = 6

a = 17, b= 8

a = 17, b = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The question lacks the required diagram.

We must understand that the adjacent sides of a kite is equal. For the kite FGHJ shown, FG = GH and FJ = HJ

Given side FG = 30 and GH = 2a-4, we can get the value of 'a' by simply equating both sides as shown;

2a-4 = 30

Adding 4 to both sides;

2a-4+4 = 30+4

2a = 34

a = 34/2

a = 17.

Similarly, given side FJ = 3b+6 and HJ = 24, we can get the value of 'b' the same way as above;

Since FJ = HJ

3b+6 = 24

Subtracting 6 from both sides:

3b+6-6 = 24-6

3b = 18

b = 18/3

b = 6

The value of a and b are 17 and 6 respectively.

step by step solution :

step   1   :

1.1     4 = 22

(4)3 = (22)3 = 26

equation at the end of step   1   :

  ((23) • 26)2

step   2   :

equation at the end of step   2   :

  (23 • 26)2

step   3   :

final result :

  218

ya

"exterior angles = 360 / number of sides.

60 = 360 / sides

sides = 360 / 60

sides = 6"
