Opposite Angles of a Parallelogram Are Equal
Two adjacent ...
Question
Two adjacent angles of a parallelogram are as 1 : 2. Find the measures of all the angles of the parallelogram.
Open in App
Solution
Let
the
angle
be
A
and
B
.
T
h
e
a
ngles
are
in
the
ratio
of
1
:
2
.
M
easures
of
∠
A
and
∠
B
are
x
°
and
2
x
°
.
Then
,
∠
C
=
∠
A
and
∠
D
=
∠
B
(
o
pposite
angles
of
a
parallelogram
are
congruent
)
As
we
know
that
the
sum
of
adjacent
angle
s
of
a
parallelogram
is
180
°
.
∴
∠
A
+
∠
B
=
180
°
⇒
x

+
2
x

=
180
°
⇒
3
x
°
=
180
°
⇒
x

=
180

=
60

Thus
,
measure
of
∠
A
=

,
∠

=
120

,
∠
C
=
