| If a circle can be inscribed in a quadrilateral, then the sum of the opposite sides of the quadrilateral will be equal.
That is, AB + CD = BC + AD.
AB = 8 cm, BC = 7 cm, CD = 31 cm. Substitute the known data and find the size of the last side.
8 + 31 = 7 + AD.
7 + AD = 39.
AD = 39 – 7.
AD = 32 (cm).
Answer: the fourth side of the quadrangle is 32 cm.
