Ratio of two adjacent angles of a paralleogram is 3:2 . Find the measures of all angles
Answers
Answer:
Ratio of two angles of a Parellogarm is 3/2.... given, let the given Parellogarm be ABCD
let the ratio of angle A with Angle B be 3:2
since we know that adjacent angles of a Parellogarm are supplementary
therefore, let the common multiple be x
3x+2x= 180
5x=180
x=180/5
x=36
therefore angle A =108°
and angle B=72
angle C=108
angle D=72
because opposite angles of a Parellogarm are congruent
Answer:
The ratio of the angles are 3:2.
So, let the angles be 3x and 2x.
We know that, the angles adjacent in the parallelogram are supplementary.
So, we can write the angles as, 2x + 3x = 180
Hence, 5x = 180
x = 180/5
x = 36°
So, finally the angles are,
3x = 3 × 36 = 108°
3x = 3 × 36 = 108°2x = 2 × 36 = 72°

What is a parallelogram ?
- A parallelogram is a closed figure made up of parallel lines.
- They are made up of two pairs of parallel lines.
- The length of the opposite lines which are parallel to each other are equal.
- The opposite angles are equal.
- The consecutive angles or adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.
- The diagonals bisect each other.
- The diagonal divides the parallelogram into two congruent triangles.
