lol LMNO...laugh my ???? off?

undeadknight26 · Answer

any whoo i think the total its supposed to add up to is 180 so we have to find x to make it equal to 180...

shrutipande9 · Answer

the sm of adjacent angles in parallelogram is 180....so take 1 as x and other as 9x

anonymous · Answer

what is answer

undeadknight26 · Answer

we can't just give you the answer sorry.

shrutipande9 · Answer

exactly..work it out....9x+x=180

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent. OL and NM are opposite sides.
so
x+15=3x+5
