Given:
Diagram Shows a Square (6x-1)cm (4x+6)cm.
To find:
The length of the side of the square.
Solution:
We know that, all sides of a square are equal. So,
[tex]6x-1=4x+6[/tex]
[tex]6x-4x=1+6[/tex]
[tex]2x=7[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2.
[tex]x=\dfrac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=3.5[/tex]
Now, the side of the square is
[tex]Side=6x-1[/tex]
[tex]Side=6(3.5)-1[/tex]
[tex]Side=21-1[/tex]
[tex]Side=20\text{ cm}[/tex]
Therefore, the length of the side of the square = 20 cm.
