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°
Well if the straight line is equal to 1 then your answer is 2/3 but if the straight line is not equal to 1 you need to know what it is equal to or you could use the equation y = (2/3)x
"x" would be the length of the straight line and "y" would be two-thirds of it
Answer:
∠B = 62°
Step-by-step explanation:
Because ∠A and ∠B are vertical angles they are equal hence we can write
∠A = ∠B
8x + 14 = 2x + 50
Now we have to solve for x
To do so, subtract 2x on both sides of the equation:
6x + 14 = 50
Now, subtract 14 on both sides of the equation
6x = 36
Now, divide 6 on both sides of the equation
x = 6
To find m∠B you have to you have to plug in x = 6 back into the ∠B equation
∠B = 2(6) + 50
∠B = 62°
