Answer:
let the angles be 2x and 3x,
2x+3x=180 (adj. side of rhombus)
5x=180
X = 180/5
X= 36
therefore, 2x= 2× 36 = 72
3x= 3x 36= 108

Answer:
72, 108
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the adjacent angles of a rhombus be ∠A= 2x and ∠B =3x.
2x + 3x = 180° [sum of the adjacent angles of a rhombus is equal to 180°]
5x = 180°
x = 180°/5
x = 36°
∠A = 2x = 2 × 36° = 72°
∠A = ∠C = 72° [opposite angles of a rhombus are equal]
∠B = 3x = 3 × 36° = 108°.
∠B = ∠D = 108° [opposite angles of a rhombus are equal]
Hence , the angles of the rhombus are 72° , 108° , 72° and 108°.
