The measure of angle M of the given parallelogram is 117°.
Given:
a parallelogram as shown in the image below
∠P = 10x - 27
∠N = 7x
To Find:
the measure of angle M
Solution:
we know that the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal
⇒ ∠P = ∠N
so, 10x - 27 = 7x
10x - 7x = 27
3x = 27
x = 27/3
x = 9
⇒ ∠N = 7 × 9 = 63°
also, the sum of the adjacent sides of a parallelogram is 180
⇒ ∠M + ∠N = 180
∠M + 63 = 180
∠M = 180 - 63
∠M = 117
Thus, the measure of angle M of the given parallelogram is 117°.
