Given parallelogram ABCD, find the measure of angle A if angle B = 130 degrees.
Correct Answer
50
50 degrees
A=50Explanation
The measure of angle A in parallelogram ABCD is 50 degrees. This can be determined by using the property of opposite angles in a parallelogram. Since angle B is given as 130 degrees, angle A, which is opposite to angle B, will also be 130 degrees. However, the sum of the measures of angles in a parallelogram is always 360 degrees. Therefore, angle A can be found by subtracting the measure of angle B from 360 degrees, which gives us 360 - 130 = 230 degrees. However, since angle A is opposite to angle B, it will have the same measure as angle B, which is 130 degrees. Therefore, the measure of angle A is 130 degrees.Rate this question:

In parallelogram ABCD, angle A = 2x + 20 degrees and angle B = 4x + 10 degrees.Find the measure of angle A.
Correct Answer
70
70 degrees
A=70Explanation
The measure of angle A in parallelogram ABCD is 70 degrees. This is determined by setting the given equation equal to 70 and solving for x. By substituting x = 25 into the equation for angle A, we find that angle A = 2(25) + 20 = 70 degrees.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. 5°Explanation
Since angle E is equal to 13X, and angle C is equal to 65, we can set up the equation 13X = 65. By dividing both sides of the equation by 13, we find that X = 5. Therefore, the value of X is 5°.Rate this question:

If DE = 7, what is BD?
Correct Answer
14
BD=14Explanation
The given information states that DE is equal to 7. Therefore, if BD is equal to 14, it means that BD is twice the length of DE. This implies that BD is equal to 2 times 7, which equals 14. Hence, the answer is 14 and BD is indeed equal to 14.Rate this question:

In the parallelogram below, what is the measure of angle F?
- A.
61
- B.
139
- C.
119
- D.
34.75
Correct Answer
A. 61Explanation
To find the measure of angle F, we need to solve the equation(4x - 20)° = 61°, as opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.
Let’s solve this equation:
4x - 20 = 61
4x = 61 + 20
4x = 81
x = 81/4
x = 20.25
So, the value of x is 20.25. Now, let’s substitute x into the expression for angle F:
F = 4x - 20
F = 4(20.25) - 20
F = 81 - 20
F = 61°
Therefore, the measure of angle F is 61°.Rate this question:

A quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides is called a ______________.
Correct Answer
Trapezoid, trapezoidExplanation
A trapezoid (also known as a trapezium in some regions) is a type of quadrilateral that has only one pair of parallel sides. The two sides that are not parallel are called the legs of the trapezoid. This distinguishes it from other quadrilaterals like rectangles or squares, which have two pairs of parallel sides. Therefore, trapezoid correctly fills the blank.Rate this question:

In parallelogram ABCD, angle B = 3x + 20 degrees and angle D = 4x - 10 degrees. Find x.
Correct Answer
30
30 degrees
x=30Explanation
The sum of the angles in a parallelogram is 360 degrees. Therefore, we can set up the equation: (3x + 20) + (4x - 10) = 360. Simplifying the equation gives us 7x + 10 = 360. Subtracting 10 from both sides gives us 7x = 350. Dividing both sides by 7 gives us x = 50. Therefore, the value of x is 50.Rate this question:

In parallelogram ABCD, angle A = 2x + 20 degrees and angle B = 4x + 10 degrees.Find the measure of angle B.
Correct Answer
110
110 degrees
B=110Explanation
The measure of angle B in parallelogram ABCD is 110 degrees. This can be determined by setting the measure of angle A equal to the measure of angle B (since opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent) and solving for x. By substituting x back into the equation for angle B, we can find that the measure of angle B is indeed 110 degrees.Rate this question:

In parallelogram ABCD, diagonal AC = 32 and AE = 4x. Find x.
Correct Answer
4
x=4Explanation
In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other. Therefore, AC is equal to BD. Given that AC = 32, we can conclude that BD is also equal to 32. Since AE is a diagonal, it is equal to BD. So, AE = 32. It is also given that AE = 4x. By equating the two expressions for AE, we get 4x = 32. Dividing both sides by 4, we find that x = 8. Hence, the value of x is 8.Rate this question:

Quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.If AG = 2j + 21 and DG = - j + 39, find BD.
- A.
33
- B.
6
- C.
66
- D.
16.5
Correct Answer
C. 66Explanation
Since ABCD is a rectangle, opposite sides are equal in length. Therefore, AG = DG. We can set up an equation using this information:
2j + 21 = -j + 39
Solving this equation, we find j = 6.
Now, we can substitute the value of j back into either AG or DG to find its length. Using AG:
AG = 2(6) + 21 = 33
Since opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, BD is also equal to 33.Rate this question:

In parallelogram ABCD, if AB = 8x - 2 and CD = 6x + 8, what is the length of AB?
Correct Answer
38Explanation
In a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal in length. So if AB is the same as CD, we can set them equal to each other and solve for x.
Given: AB = 8x - 2 CD = 6x + 8
Since AB is equal to CD: 8x - 2 = 6x + 8
Now, let's solve for x: 8x - 6x = 8 + 2 2x = 10 x = 5
Now that we have found the value of x, we can substitute it back into AB to find the length of AB:
AB = 8x - 2 AB = 8(5) - 2 AB = 40 - 2 AB = 38
Therefore, the length of AB in the parallelogram is 38 units.Rate this question:
