Answer:
Rhombus is a special tupe of quadrilateral whose all sides are equal and opposite angles are equal.
Let us consider a rhombus ABCD
here let the angles <B and <C
are in ratio as given above = 2:3
- using tge property of rhombus that opposite angles are equal
We get
- <B= <D
- <C = <A
Let us consider the ratio to be x
So <B= 2x and <C = 3x
Using angle sum property of quadrilateral ie, sum of all angles of a quadrilateral is 360
<A +<B + <C + <D = 360°
- NOW as <A = <C and <B = <D
so putting their values
<A +<B +<A+<B=360
2<A + 2<B = 360
<A + <B = 180°
- As <A = 2x and <B = 3x so putting the values.
2x + 3x = 180
5x = 180
x = 180/5
x = 36°
Now
<A = 2x = 2×36 = 72°
<B = 3x = 3 × 36 = 108°
<C = <A = 72°
<D = < B = 108°
