Math Problem Statement
Solution
In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal, and consecutive angles are supplementary (their sum is 180°).
Step 1: Use the given angle measures
- One angle is 93°. Since consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary: So the adjacent angle is:
Step 2: Set up equations for the angles based on the diagram
-
The angle at the top right corner is . This should be equal to 87° because opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal: Solve for :
-
The angle at the bottom left corner is . This angle is opposite the 93° angle, so it should also be 93°: Solve for :
-
The angle at the bottom right corner is . This should be equal to 87° (same as the angle opposite it): Solve for :
