A parallelogram has an interior angle measuring 81°. Which MUST also be the measure of an interior angle of the parallelogram?
Question
Answer:
Hey there! :DThink of a parallelogram as a figure with two triangles. A triangle's interior angles add up to 180 degrees. So,
180 x 2= 360
The corresponding angles will always be supplementary. That interior angle (81 degrees) will be corresponding and supplementary to another angle.
Let x equal the missing measure of the angle.
81+x=180
Subtract 81 on both sides.
x=99
Another measure of an interior angle must be 99 degrees.
I hope this helps!
