$ABCD$ is a rectangle. The diagonals $AC$ and $BD$ intersect each other at $O$. Find the value of $x$ if $OA=x+2$ and $OC=2x-1$.


Given: $ABCD$ is a rectangle. The diagonals $AC$ and $BD$ intersect each other at $O$ and $OA=x+2$ and $OC=2x-1$ 

To do: To find the value of $x$.

Solution:



$OA=OB$ [Diagonal bisect each other at the point $O$]

$\Rightarrow x+2=2x-1$

$\Rightarrow 2x-x=2+1$

$\Rightarrow x=3$
