Answer 1

Answer:

x = 90

y = 100

z = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x and y in the above parallelogram ABCD as shown above, recall that one of the properties of a parallelogram is: the consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.

This means that the sum of angle A and angle B in the parallelogram ABCD = 180°.

Thus,

(x + 30)° + (x - 30)° = 180°

Solve for x

x + 30 + x - 30 = 180

x + x + 30 - 30 = 180

2x = 180

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 180/2

x = 90

=>Find y:

Also, recall that opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent.

This means, angle A and angle C in parallelogram ABCD above are equal.

Thus,

(x + 30)° = (y + 20)°

Plug in the value of x to solve for y

90 + 30 = y + 20

120 = y + 20

Subtract 20 from both sides

120 - 20 = y

100 = y

y = 100

=>Find z, if z = x - y

z = 90 - 100

z = -10
