Answer: 101 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

For any parallelogram, the adjacent angles add to 180.

T+S = 180

(4x+1)+(3x+4) = 180

7x+5 = 180

7x = 180-5

7x = 175

x = 175/7

x = 25

Now we can determine angles T and S.

  • angle T = 4x+1 = 4*25+1 = 100+1 = 101
  • angle S = 3x+4 = 3*25+4 = 75+4 = 79

Notice that they add to 101+79 = 180 to confirm the correct x value, and correct angle measures.

For any parallelogram, the opposite angles are congruent. This allows us to say:

  • angle T = angle R = 101 degrees
  • angle P = angle S = 79 degrees
