Parallelogram ABCD. The bisector of an obtuse angle B divides the AD

Parallelogram ABCD. The bisector of an obtuse angle B divides the AD side into two segments (AK is 4 cm more than KD) P = 64 cm find all sides.

1. KD = AK – 4 cm (according to the problem statement).

2. The bisector of the parallelogram ВK separates the isosceles triangle AВK from it, whose sides AB and AK are equal.

3. AD = AK + KD.

We replace in this expression AK by AB, KD by (AB – 4):

AD = AB + AB – 4 = 2AB – 4 cm.

4. R parallelogram = 2 (AB + AD) = 64 cm.

AB + AD = 32 cm.

5. We replace in this expression AD for (2AB – 4):

AB + 2AB – 4 = 32 cm.

3AB – 4 = 32 cm.

3AB = 36 cm.

AB = 12 cm.

AD = 32 – AB = 32 – 12 = 20 cm.

Answer: AB = CD = 12 cm, AD = BC = 20 cm.
