Assuming that in a parallelogram,

angle A = 78 degrees

angle B = 3y degrees

and that angles A and B are adjacent interior angles of the parallelogram.

78 + 3y = 180 so 3y = 102 and so y = 102/3 = 34 degrees.

What are the other angles of a parallelogram when one interior angle is 27.5 degrees?

The other 3 angles are 27.5 degrees, 152.5 degrees and 152.5 degrees because opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram and its 4 interior angles add up to 360 degrees.


One angle of a parallelogram measures 10 degrees. What are the measures of the other three angles in the parallelogram?

If one angle is 10 degrees, its opposite angle is also 10 degrees. Since consecutive angles are supplementary, each pair of angles has to add up to 180 degrees so the other angles have to be 170 degrees. Therefore this parallelogram has two 10 degree angles and two 170 degree angles.


What are the measures of the other three angles of the parallelogram if one of the angles measures 63 degrees?

63,117,117


What is the value of x in the parallelogram below angle 115 degrees angle 5x degrees angle 2y plus 7 degrees?

Not too sure of your question but if one angle measures 115 degrees then the other 3 angles are 115 degrees, 65 degrees and 65 degrees because opposite angles are equal.


If one angle of a parallelogram measures 40 degrees and another angel measures 140 degrees what are the measures of the other two angles?

The other two angles are also 40 degrees and 140 degrees.


What are the measures of the other three angles of the parallelogram if one of the angles measures 130 degrees?

50°, 130°, and 50° are.


One angle of a parallelogram measures 40 degrees and another angle measures 140 degrees what are the measures of the other two angles?

The law of any parallelogram says that the angle of one corner is the same as the angle opposite. So the other angles would also be 40 degrees and 140 degrees. Also note that this neatly adds up to a total of 360 degrees - all 4 sided shapes' angles must add up to 360 degrees, so you can work out the angles of a parallelogram just from knowing one angle.


Can a parallelogram tile?

Well, a parallelogram can tile. Take one vertex and make sure the parallelogram can go around 360 degrees.


What is a parallelogram with one interior angle equal to 90?

It is a square, a regular parallelogram with all right angles. The reason is that in a parallelogram, the adjacent angles are supplementary (equal 180 degrees).In any case, the opposite angle would be 90 degrees as well, leaving just 180 degrees for the other two identical opposite angles.


Can a parallelogram have 3 right angles?

Depends on your question. A rectangle is a parallelogram and has 4 right angles. BUT A parallelogram can have only a total of one, two, or four right angles. Mathematically, 3 right angles is 270 degrees. A parallelogram has 360 degrees. 360 - 270 = 90 degrees = right angle.


What is the measure o the first third and fourth angle if one angle measures 75 degrees?

If it's a parallelogram then the other 3 angles are 75, 105 and 105 degrees


Is it true or false that in a parallelogram the opposite angles are complementary?

Generally false. In a parallelogram, the opposite angles are equal. They could be complementary in a highly skewed parallelogram in which one angle is 45 degrees.
