Geometry Angles
Q. The figure shows a parallelogram ABCD where BAD = 64. E lies on AB such as ADE = 49.
Calculate
i) ABC
ii) CDE
Solution:
2 pairs of parallel sides
Opposite sides are equal in length
Opposite angles are equal
Diagonals bisect each other
AE = DC, AD = BC
i) ABC + 64 = 180
ABC = 180 - 64
= 116 Ans.
ii) ADC = 116
CDE + 49 = 116
CDE = 116 - 49
= 67 Ans.
Angles in a Parallelogram:
There are 2 pairs of parallel sides.
Opposite sides are equal in length
Opposite angles are equal
i.e. ABC = ABC
BAD = BCD
DIAGONALS BISECT EACH OTHER
AE = DC
AD = BC
