If RS=15y–3 and RU=12y, find the value of y in rhombus STUV.SVUTRy=Submit

Given:
Quadrilateral STUV is a Rhombus.
Required:
The value of y.
Explanation:
The diagonals of the Rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other.
Therefore.
[tex]RS\text{ = RU}[/tex]Substituting the value in the above equation, we get
[tex]\begin{gathered} 15y\text{ - 3 = 12y} \\ 15y\text{ - 12y = 3} \\ 3y\text{ = 3} \\ y\text{ = 1} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:
Thus the required value of y is 3.
