Question
A parallelogram has one angle that measures 90°. What are the measures of the other three angles in the parallelogram?
Solution
In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal and adjacent angles are supplementary.
-
Since one angle is 90°, the angle opposite to it will also be 90°. This is because in a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal.
-
The adjacent angles to the 90° angle will be supplementary to it. This means they will add up to 180°. So, if one angle is 90°, the angle next to it will be 180° - 90° = 90°.
-
Therefore, all the angles in the parallelogram will be 90°.
So, the measures of the other three angles in the parallelogram are 90°, 90°, and 90°.
