What is measure angle 1 in this parallelogram?

snowflake0531:

Did you know, that in a parallelogram, opposite angles/opposite sides are equal?

ah42632:

Yes, but this is complicated because of the variables it has.

snowflake0531:

So, angle 1 is equal to 3m +20 There's also another thing you should know, is that adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary So, 3m+20+5m=180 Can you solve for m?

ah42632:

i can try

ah42632:

m = 20

ah42632:

and angle 1 is 100 degrees

snowflake0531:

Yes, m=20 But re-put m into 3m+20, it's not 100

ah42632:

3m+20=80

ah42632:

ohhh i did the wrong side earlier

snowflake0531:

yep! Angle 1 =80 degrees

ah42632:

Thank you so much!!!! I suck at geometry.

snowflake0531:

yw~ (and everyone used to suck at everything, before being taught how to do it:) )

ah42632:

that is so very true. Wise words from a wise teacher XD

snowflake0531:
