Since there on a straight line =180 degress soo 116 + 180 i guess idk but are there any answer choices ?
No.. It's A Short Answer,,, I have to explain...
Well they said its not to scale . Have you been looking in the lesson ?
The parallelogram is a "rhombus" because it has 4 equal sides. There is a line going diagonally across the rhombus which forms 2 "triangles." We know that the triangle is an isosceles triangle (meaning it has 2 equal sides) by seeing the line on the line of the side (lol i don't really know how to say it xD) Since we know that all angles in a triangle adds up to 180 degrees, we can solve for it. 116 +2x=180 (i put 2x because since its an isosceles triangle, both of the remaining angles are the same) -116 -116 2x=64 /2 /2 x=32 So the remaining angles are 32 degrees =)
And since the rhombus is split diagonally in half, both of the triangles would have the same angles and measures.
