Is it possible to have a quadrilateral with sides of length 10, 5, 1, and 8?

3 answers

Yes, so long as the largest side is not larger than the sum of the other 3 sides (i.e. 20, 2, 2, 2 wouldn't work).
ABCD is a rectangle. AD = x + 10, BC = 2x + 8 and CD = 5. Solve for BD. (Be sure to show all your work!)
Hi Kaylon,

This is cheating. Do your own FLVS homework. If you don't know how, ask your teacher.
