According to the given image, we have a parallelogram whose two consecutive angles are 5x and 4x.

Remember that two consecutive interior angles in a parallelogram sum 180°, so we can express the following equation.


5x+4x=180

Now, we solve for x.


\begin{gathered} 9x=180 \\ x=(180)/(9) \\ x=20 \end{gathered}

We use this value to find each angle.


\begin{gathered} 5x=5(20)=100 \\ 4x=4(20)=80 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the angles are 100° and 80°.
