ANSWERS : 25 DEGREES 115 DEGREES 100 DEGREES 90 DEGREES
Does it give you the measures of angle a and b?
@jabez177 no just the measure of C which is 65 degrees .
Okay. We know that angle C is 65 degrees and angle C is congruent to angle A so that means they are the same angles. Angle C = 65 Angle A = 65 Now we have 65 and 65. The interior angles of a Parallelogram add up to 360 degrees. What is 65 + 65?
@jabez177 65 + 65 is 130.
What is 360 - 130?
@jabez177 230
\[230\div2\]
@jabez177 115
That is your angle D :)
@jabez177 thank you :)

If you add up all the angles, 65, 65, 115 ,115, you should get 360. :) That's to check your answer. :)
