Answer:
c) 123
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ the opposite sides of a parallelogram is equal
5x + 4y = 7x - 2 (Just a simple property of the shape;)
4y + 2 = 2x
x = 2y + 1
Also,
2y + x = 3y + 5
2y + 2y + 1 = 3y + 5 = 4y + 1 = 3y + 5 (Replacing the values)
y = 4
And ∵ y = 4
x = 2y + 1
∴ x = 2 x 4 + 1 = 9
But we need to find the angle BCD
The opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal (Just another property of it)
∴ 5a - 3 = 4a + 9
a = 12
Therefore angle BCD = 12 x 5 - 3 = 57
Sum of all the sides of a parallelogram is 360°.
And the sum of a pair of adjacent angle = 180°.
∴ angle BCD = 180° - 57 = 123
Just some simple calculations
Hope you understood :)
