In order for the parallelogram to be a rhombus, x=?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonal must be an angle bisector for a rhombus.
That means that both bisected angles are equal.
2x + 16 = 5x - 8 Add 8 to both sides
2x + 16 + 8 = 5x
2x + 24 = 5x Subtract 2x from both sides
24 = 5x - 2x
24 = 3x Divide by 3
24/3 = x
x = 8
