can anyone plz help me out
What is the question?
Question?
Find the variables in the parallelogram x=21 y = 26 z= 103 x= 56 y = 21 z = 103 x = 56 y = 56 z = 124 x= 21 y =56 z = 124

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent. That should help you find z.
To find y, remember that the measures of the angles on a triangle add up to 180. You have two angles of 21 and 103 which when added to y will equal 180.
so u would set it up like 21+ 103+y = 180 ?
Then to find x, remember that when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate interior angles are congruent. In this case, the upper and lower sides of the parallelogram are parallel, by definition of parallelogram. The diagonal that goes from the top left vertex to the bottom right vertex is a tranversal. The angle measuring 21 and the angle measuring x are alternate interior angles.
Correct.
so den u subtract 21 from both sides?
In your equation, subtract 21 from both sides. Then subtract 103 from both sides. What do you get for y?
y = 56 ?
Great. That's it.
:)
What about z? Did you get it?
oh i didnt go that far
Ok, have you tried x?
x and z don't need any calculations or equations.
nope but i ganna try it right now
oh okay so will the answer be d?
For z, read my first response right after your picture.
