Q.12 The opposite angles of a parallelogram PQRS are angle Q = (5x-16)° and angle S = (2x+29)°. Find all the angles of parallelogram.​

Answer»

Given:

  • The opposite ANGLES of a Parallelogram is (5x-16)° and (2x+29)°

\\

To FIND:

  • Find all the angles of parallelogram.

\\

Solution:

{\underbrace{\tt\large{ Understanding \ the \ Concept }}} \\

  • The opposite sides of Parallelogram are ALWAYS equal.
  • The corresponding sides of a Parallelogram are supplementary of each other.

So,

The sides are opposite ie equal.

\colon\implies 5x - 16 = 2x + 29

\colon\implies 5x - 2x = 29 + 16

\colon\implies3x = 45

\colon\implies{\tt{ x = \cancel{ \dfrac{45}{3} } }}

\colon\implies x = 15°

So, After substituting values,

\implies 5(15) - 16

\implies 75-16

\implies 59°

So, In this way we can find the Other Angles of the Parallelogram:

180 - 59 = 121°

Hence,

  • 121°, 121°, 59° and 59° are the angles of Parallelogram.
