Question

The value of k is _____.

  1. 6
  2. 7
  3. 2
  4. 5

hintHint:

 opposite sides are equal in a parallelogram

The correct answer is: 6


    6
    Using the properties of parallelograms, opposite sides are equal in a parallelogram.
    Here, PR = XY and XY = QS. As XY is the common side for both the parallelograms, we can concur that PR= QS
    2k -7 = QS = 5
    2k = 12
    k  = 12/2
    k = 6

    we can also conclude that PR = QS by simply observing the symmetry of the figure. However, mathematical reasoning should also be acknowledged. In a parallelogram, opposite angles and sides are equal
