Answer:
y = 72°
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that the sum of the adjacent angles of a parallelogram is 180 degrees.
therefore,
y + (2y - 36) = 180°
y + 2y - 36 =180°
3y = 180 + 36
3y = 216
y = 216/3
y = 72°

☀ Given that: Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are y° and (2y - 36)°
Need to find: Value of y
Must know:
- When sum of two angles is 180°, they are called supplementary
- Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary
Solution:
→ y + ( 2y - 36 )° = 180°
→ y + 2y - 36° = 180°
→ 3y - 36° = 180°
→ 3y = 180° + 36°
→ 3y = 216°
→ y = 216/3
→ y = 72
_______________
- Henceforth, the value of 'y' is 72.
