A parallelogram, being a quadrilateral has four interior angles. The neighbouring angles here are consecutive angles. A diagonal splits a vertex angle into the two; those are the adjacent angles.
Two consecutive angles are supplements; one acute, the other obtuse.
By data, they are in the ratio of 4:5 = 4x:5x.
So, 4x+5x = 180°
9x = 180°
x = 20°
4x = 80° and 5x = 100°
Hence, the consecutive angles in the parallelogram are 80° and 100°....

Answer:
sum of the adjacent angles in any parallelogram= 180
ratio of adjacent angles = 4:5 (given)
let first angle = 4x
second angle = 5x
4x+5x=180
9x=180
x=180/9
x= 20
therefore
required angles are
first angle = 4x= 4*20 =80
second angle = 5x= 5*20 =100
