Answer:
GIVEN -
- A parallelogram
- Ratio of adjacent angles = 2:3
TO FIND -
- Measures of angles
SOLUTION
Let the ratio be 2x , 3x
We know that the sum of adjacent angles of parallelogram = 180°
2x + 3x = 180°
5x = 180
x= 180/5
x= 36
2x= 2 × 36 = 72
3x= 3 × 36 = 108
more to know -
• In a parallelolgram, Opposite angles are equal
• The diagonal of parallelogram divides two congruent triangle.
• Two sides are parallel.
• The square, rectangle , trapezium all are parallelogram.

Solution
_________________________
Given,
- Two adjacent angels of a parallelogram are in ratio 2:3 .
To find ,
- we have to find your the measure of each angle
So,
- let the ratio be in X .
- we know that the sum of adjacent angles of a parallelogram is 180 degree .
This will form equation like this :- 2x +3x = 180°
- now solving this equation we get
Now ,
the measure of each angle ;
The measure of each angle is 72 degree and 108 degree .
