Question

The measures of two adjacent angles of a parallelogram are in the ratio 3:2. Find the measure of each of the angles of the parallelogram.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the measures of two adjacent angles, ∠A and ∠B, of parallelogram ABCD are in the ratio of 3:2.

Let ∠A = 3x and ∠B = 2x

We know that the sum of the measures of adjacent angles is 180º for a parallelogram.

∠A + ∠B = 180º

3x + 2x = 180º

5x = 180º

∠A = ∠C = 3x = 108º (Opposite angles)

∠B = ∠D = 2x = 72º (Opposite angles)

Thus, the measures of the angles of the parallelogram are 108º, 72º, 108º, and 72º

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

$\huge \pink{\mathbb {Answer ツ}}$

Let us take the two adjacent angles be 3x & 2x

Note :- Sum of the adjacent angles in a parallelogram is 180°

So, we will simply add up and equal to 180 and will get the value of x

→ 3x + 2x = 180

→ 5x = 180

→ x = 180/5

→ x = 36

Thus, we got the value of x which is 36

Now, we will simply subsitute the values

1st angle :- 3x = 3 × 36 = 108

2nd angle :- 2x = 2 × 36 = 72
