if the ratio of measures of two adjacent angles of a parallelogram is 1:2 , find the measures of all angles of the parallelogram |
Answer» Answer :›»› The measure of all angles of the parallelogram is 60°, 120°, 60°, and 120°. Given :
To Find :
Solution :Let US assume that, the measures of two adjacent angles of a parallelogram is "1x" and "2x" respectively. As we know that The sum of adjacent angle of parallelogram is 180°. → 1x + 2x = 180 → x + 2x = 180 → 3x = 180 → x = 180 ÷ 3 → x = 60 Therefore, The measure of two adjacent angle of parallel will be,
As we know that The OPPOSITE angles of parallelogram are equal and parallel. So, Opposite angle of 60° is 60° And, Opposite angle of 120° is also 120°. Hence, the measure of all angles of the parallelogram is 60°, 120° 60°, and 120°.Verification :The sum of all FOUR angles of a parallelogram is 360°. → 60 + 120 + 60 + 120 = 360 → 180 + 60 + 120 = 360 → 180 + 180 = 360 → 360 = 360 Clearly, LHS = RHS Here, both the conditions satisfy, so our answer is correct. Hence Verified ! |
