Question

Find the value of A and B.

Answer 1

a= 62 b=15

Explanation:

a-35= 27 [ opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal]

a= 27 + 35 = 62

b + 23 = 38 [ parallel angles are equal resulting from, alternate angles]

b= 38 -23 =15

Note the alternate angles result at the base close to the point where we have the cursor on the screen

Answer 2

Answer: a = 62, b = 15

Explanation:

Both the length and width of the quadrilateral are parallel, meaning that opposite angles and opposite sides are equal.

Thus, we can represent the side lengths and angles in which a and b appear using equations:

38 = b + 23

27 = a - 35

Solving for a and b, you will find:

b = 15

a = 62
