Find the values of the variables in this kite.
(2 points)
Let's label the vertices of the kite as follows:
- Top vertex: A
- Right vertex: B
- Bottom vertex: C
- Left vertex: D
Since the upper left and right segments are congruent, we can label them both as x.
The lower left and right segments are congruent and long. Let's label the length of these segments as z.
According to the given information,
Upper left segment: x
The upper left segment is labeled y minus 4. So, we have the equation:
x = y - 4
Therefore, the values of the variables in this kite are:
x = y - 4
z = ?
A = ?
B = ?
C = ?
D = ?
