Answer 2

B. 76°

Explanation:

The theorem regarding the angles of parallelograms is that the two sets of opposite angles are congruent. This means that in this parallelogram:

∠A ≅ ∠C

∠B ≅ ∠D

We also know that the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is equal to 360°.

Let's correlate these assumptions:

∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°

∠A ≅ ∠C

∠B ≅ ∠D

So through substitution:

∠A + ∠B + ∠A + ∠B = 360°

2(∠A) + 2(∠B) = 360°

We are given:

m∠A = 104°

Now let's insert that in our equation:

2(∠A) + 2(∠B) = 360°

2(104°) + 2(∠B) = 360°

208° + 2(∠B) = 360°

Subtract 208° from both sides of the equation:

208° - 208° + 2(∠B) = 360°- 208°

2(∠B) = 152°

Divide both sides by 2:

2(∠B)/2 = 152°/2

∠B = 76°
