To find the lengths of the diagonals of the parallelogram RSTU (with vertices at coordinates), we need to apply the properties of a parallelogram and potentially the distance formula.

Given the points R, S, T, and U are specified by their coordinates:

  • R=(3m+2,4m3)
  • S=(V,8+n)
  • T=(3m+2,4m3) (assuming some coordinates here)
  • U=(8+n,2n+2)

In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other, which means their midpoints will be the same.

To find the lengths of the diagonals RT and SU, we will use the distance formula:

For diagonal RT:

  • Let R(m,n)=(3m+2,4m3)
  • Let T(m,n)=(8+n,4m3)

The distance RT is given by the distance formula:

RT=(x2x1)2+(y2y1)2

For diagonal SU:

  • Let S(x1,y1)=(V,8+n)
  • Let U(x2,y2)=(8+n,2n+2)

Similarly, the distance SU can be calculated using the same distance formula.

The outcome will depend on the particular values of m and n that you might be referring to.

If there are no specific coordinates available for S and U, we can substitute them with their general coordinates given.

Now, to solve:

Diagonal RT: RT=(xTxR)2+(yTyR)2 Using the coordinates given (assuming no errors in coordinates input):

  • Let’s assume the computations are based on values of m and n.

Diagonal SU: SU=(xUxS)2+(yUyS)2

Complete evaluating these two distance formulas to find lengths RT and SU.

After performing algebraic simplification you should arrive at specific lengths stated with the variables m and n.

Conclusion: For specific numerical results of diagonals RT and SU, it is essential first to plug in the exact values for m and n based on your further details to get the length where you mentioned the first blank would equal to symbolically solve for RT and SU.
