Transcript text: Find the measure of the three missing angles in the rhombus below.
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Find x
Adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary, so they add up to 180°. Therefore, \(x + 101 = 180\). Subtracting 101 from both sides gives \(x = 79\).
Step 2: Find y
Opposite angles in a rhombus are congruent. Therefore, \(y = 101\).
Step 3: Find z
Opposite angles in a rhombus are congruent. Therefore, \(z = x = 79\).
