OpenStudy (ariannemily5621):

Hi cashgirl1369

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

helo ariannaemily5621

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

|dw:1467398719869:dw|

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

how did you get that

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

oh wait nvm the question

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

yeah

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

okay

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

|dw:1467398967561:dw| I meant AB is congruent to CD and BC is congruent to AD

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

okay i get that

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Ok so you should be able to figure out the perimeter

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

i dont know how the lesson never taught us

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

|dw:1467399066064:dw| So the opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so therefore CD = 5 and BC = 10

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

okay do you multipy everything

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Perimeter is distance around the figure, the sum of all its sides.

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

so 10x5 ?

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

The question asks to find the perimeter.

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

so would it be 10x10x5x5

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

You add not multiply. It is the SUM of all the sides

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

fudge sorry

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

So you got 30 units for the perimeter?

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

yes i did

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

how do i find the second part

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Ok so the adjacent angles of parallelogram are supplementary, meaning they equal 180 degrees.

OpenStudy (cashgirl1369):

okay

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

|dw:1467399821862:dw| So 127 + BCD = 180 Solve for angle BCD
