Question

What is the value of y in the parallelogram below?

108
O A. 24
O c. 69
O D. 36

Answer 1

(A) y = 24

Explanation:

Given GDEF is a parallelogram and m∠E = 108°

To find: value of y

In ║grm GDEF,

m∠D + m∠E = 180° (Consecutive angles of parallelogram are supplementary)

3y° + 108° = 180°

3y° = 180° - 108°

3y° = 72°

y = 72°/3 = 24°

Therefore, option (A) is the correct answer.
