Question

For what values of k is DUTY is  a rectangle?

  1. 10 over 3
  2. 3 over 10
  3. 10
  4. 3

hintHint:

The sides of a square are equal.
5k -  17 = 3 -  k
6k = 20
k = 20 over 6
k = 10 over 3

The correct answer is: 10 over 3


    we are given with the equation for different sides of the quadilateral  and we have to find the value of k for which the figure is a rectangle
    The sides of a square are equal.
    5k -  17 = 3 -  k
    6k = 20
    k = 20 over 6
    k = 10 over 3

    Therefore the value of k is 10/3
