Question

2) Fill in an angle measure greater than 100 degrees for the missing angle in yellow below. You will fill

this in at the top of the chart and base all other angles you calculate on this measure. Find all the
missing angle measure.

Answer 1

m∠a = 110°

m∠b = 110°

m∠c = 70°

m∠d = 70°

m∠i = 110°

m∠h = 110°

m∠j = 70°

m∠g = 110°

m∠f = 70°

m∠e = 70°

m∠k = 57°

m∠m = 70°

m∠l = 167°

Explanation:

Let the measure of the yellow angle = 110°

Therefore;

m∠a = 110° by vertically opposite angles

m∠b = m∠a = 110° by opposite interior angles of a parallelogram

m∠c = 180° - 110° = 70° by same side interior angles

m∠d = m∠c = 70° by opposite interior angles of a parallelogram

m∠i and m∠c are supplementary angles, therefore, m∠i = 110°

m∠h = m∠i = 110° by vertically opposite angles

m∠j = m∠c = 70° by vertically opposite angles

m∠g and m∠d are supplementary angles, therefore, m∠g = 110°

m∠f = m∠d = 70° by alternate interior angles

m∠f = m∠e = 70° by vertically opposite angles

m∠k = 180° - (m∠h + 13°) = 180° - (110° + 13°) = 57°

m∠b and m∠m are supplementary angles, therefore, m∠m = 70°

m∠l and 13° are supplementary angles, therefore, m∠l = 167°
