Find the measure of four angles.
Answers
Given :
The opposite angles of a parallelogram are (3x + 5)° and (61 − x)°
To Find :
Measure of four angles of parallelogram
Solution :
We know that ,
" Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal "
" Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary "
opposite angles of a parallelogram are (3x + 5)° and (61 − x)° .
⇒ ( 3x + 5 ) = ( 61 - x )
⇒ 3x + 5 = 61 - x
⇒ 3x + x = 61 - 5
⇒ 4x = 56
⇒ x = 14°
Let adjacent angle of x be y ,
Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary
⇒ x + y = 180
⇒ 14 + y = 180
⇒ y = 180 - 14
⇒ y = 166°
So ,
Four angles are 166° , 166° , 14° , 14°
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of opposite angle of a parallelogram = 180°
So, According to Question,
3x + 5 + 61 - x = 180°
=> 2x = 180° - 66° = 114
=> x = 57°
then two opposite sides angles are (3x+5) = 171+5 = 176° and (61-x) = 61 - 57 = 4°
And we know consecutive angle are also supplement of each other.
So other angles = (180-176)° = 4°
and (180-4)° = 176°
Hence all angles of || gm is 176° ,4° , 176° , 4°.
Here you go buddy. Best of Luck
