Question

Find the value of x in each parallelogram

Answer 1

Explanation:

a) x and 53 are adjacent angles of a parellelogram:

therefore, their sum will be 180 degrees

x + 53 = 180 --> x = 180 - 53 = 127 degrees

b) We know that opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal:

therefore, x = 113 degrees

c) Similarly, x = 80 degrees

d) x + 62 = 180

x = 180 - 62 = 118 degrees
