What is the measure of Angle 1? 47o 37o 74o<-- 53o See Attachment
How did you get that ?
I added 53 degrees as x and put them in the equations and decided it was 74 degrees .. I think i'm very wrong.
Do we know if the figure is a parallelogram or rhombus ?
It is a rhombus
In that case, according to wikipedia A simple (non self-intersecting) quadrilateral is a rhombus if and only if it is any one of the following: a quadrilateral with four sides of equal length (by definition) a quadrilateral in which the diagonals are perpendicular and bisect each other a quadrilateral in which each diagonal bisects two opposite interior angles a parallelogram in which at least two consecutive sides are equal in length a parallelogram in which the diagonals are perpendicular a parallelogram in which a diagonal bisects an interior angle notice that last property.
I know it's a rhombus it says that it is.
I'm just wondering if i'm right or if i'm wrong where I went wrong.
When you have a rhombus, then you know its diagonals bisect the angles.
Oh my gosh it was right in front of my face angle 1 is 53 -.- sorry
QS is a diagonal and it bisects angle RST
you could also have used congruent triangles to figure it out. triangle STQ is congruent to triangle QRS by side-side-side. that will make angle 1 equal to 53º
