Answer: This question is unsolvable
Explanation:
Sum of adjacent angles of a parallelogram = 180
(5x + 65)² + (85 - 2x)² = 180
⇒ (5x)² + 2×5x×65 + 65² + 85² - 2×85×2x + (2x²) = 180
⇒ 25x² + 650 + 4225 + 7225 - 340x + 4x² = 180
⇒ 29x² + 310x + 11450 = 180
⇒ 29x² + 310x + 11270 = 0
Discriminant of the expression = b² - 4ac = 310² - 4×29×11270 = 96100 - 1307320 = -1211220
Since the discriminant is negative, the value of x is not a real number and thereby the measure of the angles of the parallelogram are also unreal, which is not possible
So unless you are from a parallel universe where the angle of a straight line ≠ 180°, this question is unsolvable
Hope it helped
