Two adjacent angle of a parallelogram are (2x+25) and (3x-5). The value of x is
Answers
= (2x + 25) and (3x - 5)
So,
2x + 25 + 3x - 5 = 180°
5x + 20 = 180
5x = 180 - 20
5x = 160
x = 32°
So,
= (2x + 25)
= 2 × 32 + 25
= 64 + 25
= 89°
Also,
= (2x + 25)
= 2 × 32 + 25
= 64 + 25
= 89°
Also,
= (3x - 5)
= 3 × 32 - 5
= 96 - 5
= 91°
Answer
Given,
- Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are (2x + 25) & (3x - 5)
To find,
- The value of 'x'
Solution ,
Firstly I will give some properties of a parallelogram so that you may become familiar to it.
⚝ Parallelogram
࿇ Opposite sides are congruent (equal)
࿇ Opposite angels are congruent (equal)
࿇ Adjacent angles are supplementary.(sum of angle is 180°)
࿇ The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
࿇ Each diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles.
Now we got that adjacent angle of a parallelogram is supplementary.
Hence,
⇛ (2x + 25) + (3x - 5) = 180°
⇛ 5x + 20 = 180
⇛ 5x = 160
⇛x =
⇛ x = 32°
So let us place the value of x in both the angles to get their measurements.
⇰ 1st angle
⇛ (2x + 25)
⇛ 2(32) + 25
⇛ 64 + 25
⇛ 89°
⇰ 2nd angle
⇛ (3x - 5)
⇛ 3(32) - 5
⇛96 - 5
⇛91°
