IN A PARALLELOGRAM ABCD IF ANGLE A IS THRICE ANGLE B FIND ALL THE ANGLES
Answers
let the four angles be x,3x,x,3x
Step-by-step explanation:
therefore x+3x+x+3x=360
8x=360
x=360/8
x = 45
The measure of ∠A, ∠B, ∠C and ∠D respectively are 135°, 45°, 135° and 45°
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that in a parallelogram, the opposite angles are equal
In parallelogram ABCD, the angle opposite to ∠A will be ∠C and the angle opposite to ∠B will be ∠D
Given that ∠A is thrice ∠B
Therefore,
∠A = 3∠B
or, ∠C = 3∠D
We know that in a quadrilateral, the sum of all the internal angles is 360°
Thus,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°
or, ∠A + ∠A/3 + ∠A + ∠A/3 = 360°
or, ∠A(2+2/3) = 360°
or, 8∠A/3 = 360°
or, 8∠A/3 = 360° × 3/8 = 135°
Thus,
∠B = 135°/3 = 45°
∠C = ∠A = 135°
∠D = ∠B = 45°
Hope this answer is helpful.
