Use the image to answer the question.

A parallelogram has vertices upper J, upper K, upper L, and upper M. Opposite vertices are connected via diagonal lines that intersect at an interior point labeled upper O. The lines formed between each vertex and upper O are labeled.

I can’t see the labels in the image you referenced. In a parallelogram the diagonals bisect each other, so O is the midpoint of each diagonal; that means JO = LO and KO = MO.

To find x set the algebraic expressions on opposite segments equal and solve. For example, if JO = 3x+4 and LO = 7x−8 then
3x+4 = 7x−8 → 4+8 = 7x−3x → 12 = 4x → x = 3.

Send the four segment labels (or upload the image) and I’ll solve for x exactly.
