Question

two opposite angles of a parallelogram are (50-x)° and (2x-4)°. find the measure of x​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Opp. angles of a parallelogram are equal.

So,

2x-4= 50-x

2x+x-4=50

= 3x-4= 50

3x= 54

x= 54/3

Therefore x = 18

Answer 2

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is made up of 2 pairs of parallel lines, therefore, the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.

Using the above statement, we can say that:

50 - x = 2x - 4

(Add 4 to both sides)

50 - x + 4 = 2x

(Add x to both sides)

50 + 4 = 2x + x

54 = 3x

(Divide both sides by 3)

54/3 = x

18 = x
