Answer: Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2x+x=360-90

6x=270

x=45

∠DAB=2x=90° and ∠ABC=90° ⇒ AD║BC

Answer:

(a) x=45°

(b) If AD was parallel to BC, <A would be equal to (180-<B)=90 (corresponding angles). Since <A≠90, we can see that AD and BC aren't parallel.

Explanation:

(a)

Angles in a quadrilateral add to 360:

<A+<B+<C+<D=360

2x+90+x+3x=360

6x=270

x=45°

(b)

If AD was parallel to BC, <A would be equal to (180-<B)=90 (corresponding angles). Since <A≠90, we can see that AD and BC aren't parallel.
