In a rectangle, the diagonals are congruent. Therefore, AC = BD.

Given that AC = 52x and BD = 2x + 5, we can equate the two:

52x = 2x + 5

Subtracting 2x from both sides:

50x = 5

Dividing both sides by 50:

x = 5/50

Simplifying:

x = 1/10

Therefore, the value of x is 1/10.

Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's try solving it again.

Given: AC = 52x and BD = 2x + 5

Since ABCD is a rectangle, opposite sides are congruent. Therefore, we have:

AC = BD

Substituting the values:

52x = 2x + 5

Now, let's solve for x:

52x - 2x = 5

Combining like terms:

50x = 5

Dividing both sides by 50:

x = 5/50

Simplifying:

x = 1/10

Therefore, the value of x is 1/10.
