The opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.
Therefore
m∠A = m∠C, so that
5y - 3 = 3y + 27
Subtract 3y from each side.
5y - 3y - 3 = 3y - 3y + 27
2y - 3 = 27
Add 3 to each side.
2y - 3 + 3 = 27 + 3
2y = 30
y = 30/2 = 15
Therefore
m∠A = 5*15 - 3 = 72°
m∠C = 72°
Let x = m∠B
Then x = , m∠B = m∠C
Because the sum of the angles in the parallelogram is 360°, therefore
x + x + 72 + 72 = 360
2x = 360-144 = 216
x = 216/2 = 108
Answer:
m∠A = 72°
m∠B = 108°

Answer:
x = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x + 5 
) = 
Multiply both sides by 8 to clear the fractions
6(x + 5 ) = 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side
6x + 33 = 5 ( subtract 33 from both sides )
6x = - 28 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 
= -
