91Ó°ÊÓ

Quadrilateral GRAM is a parallelogram.

a. Why is ∠G supplementary to ∠M?

b. Why is ∠M supplementary to ∠A?

c. Complete: consecutive angles of a parallelogram are ?¯, while opposite angles are ?¯.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. ∠Gis supplementary to ∠M because these are the adjacent angles on the same side of a transversal and therefore their sum is 180°.

b. ∠Mis supplementary to ∠A because these are the adjacent angles on the same side of a transversal and therefore their sum is 180°.

c. Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary, while opposite angles are congruent.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1.  Observe the diagram.

The given diagram is:

02

Step 2.  Description of step.

It is being given that GRAM is a parallelogram.

Therefore, GR∥MA and GM∥RA.

As, GR∥MA and GM is a transversal and the angles ∠G and ∠M are the adjacent angles on the same side of a transversal.

Therefore, the sum of the angles ∠G and ∠M is 180°.

Therefore, ∠G is supplementary to ∠M.

03

Step 3.  Description of step.

Therefore, ∠G is supplementary to ∠M because these are the adjacent angles on the same side of a transversal and therefore their sum is 180°.

04

Step 1.  Observe the diagram.

The given diagram is:

05

Step 2.  Description of step.

It is being given that GRAM is a parallelogram.

Therefore,GR∥MA and GM∥RA.

As, GM∥RA and MA is a transversal and the angles ∠M and ∠A are the adjacent angles on the same side of a transversal.

Therefore, the sum of the angles ∠M and ∠A is 180°.

Therefore, ∠M is supplementary to ∠A.

06

Step 3.  Description of step.

Therefore, ∠M is supplementary to ∠A because these are the adjacent angles on the same side of a transversal and therefore their sum is 180°.

07

Step 1.  Observe the diagram.

The given diagram is:

08

Step 2.  Description of step.

In the parallelogram the sum of the adjacent angles is 180° and the opposite angles have same measure.

Therefore, in parallelogram consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary and opposite angles are congruent.

09

Step 3.  Write the complete step.

Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary, while opposite angles are congruent.
