The sum of the measures of the angles of the parallelogram is 360 degrees. In the parallelogram angles A and D have the same measure as well as angles C and B. If the measure of angle C is four times the measure of angle A find the measure of each angle

Sagot :

A and D have the same measure, let's call that x
C and B have the same measure, let's call that y
That would mean 2x+2y=360
Since C is equal to 4 times A, that means y=4x
2x+2(4x)=360
2x+8x=360
10x=360
x=36
A and D both equal 36 degrees
B and C both equal 36 times 4, or 144 degrees
