Math Problem Statement
Solution
To find the missing angles in the rhombus, let's break down the problem step-by-step:
Properties of a Rhombus:
- All sides are equal.
- Diagonals bisect each other at right angles (90°).
- Diagonals bisect the angles at each vertex.
Given that one angle is labeled as , we can use the following steps:
Step 1: Find .
Since is already given, we can proceed to find the other angles.
Step 2: Find .
The diagonals of the rhombus intersect at , so is part of the same right triangle as and the right angle.
In this right triangle:
Step 3: Find .
Since diagonals bisect opposite angles of a rhombus, is the supplement of , because the opposite angles in a rhombus are equal, and the sum of adjacent angles is .
So:
