Example Question #1 :How To Find An Angle In A Rhombus

A rhombus has two interior angles with a measurement ofdegrees. What is the measurement of each of the other two interior angles?

Possible Answers:

Not enough information is provided to solve this problem.

Both of the remaining angles aredegrees.

One angle isdegrees and the other angle must bedegrees.

All of the interior angles of the rhombus aredegrees.

Correct answer:

Both of the remaining angles aredegrees.

Explanation:

The four interior angles in any rhombus must have a sum ofdegrees. The opposite interior angles must be equivalent, and the adjacent angles have a sum ofdegrees.

Thus, if a rhombus has two interior angles ofdegrees, there must also be two angles that equal:

In the rhombus shown above, anglehas a measurement ofdegrees. Find the sum of anglesand

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The four interior angles in any rhombus must have a sum ofdegrees.

The opposite interior angles must be equivalent, and the adjacent angles have a sum ofdegrees.

Anglesandare opposite interior angles, so they must have equivalent measurements.

The sum is:

Anglehas a measurement ofdegrees. Find the sum of anglesand

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The four interior angles in any rhombus must have a sum ofdegrees.

The opposite interior angles must be equivalent, and the adjacent angles have a sum ofdegrees.

年代ince, both anglesandare adjacent to angle--find the measurement of one of these two angles by:.

Angleand anglemust each equaldegrees. So the sum of anglesanddegrees.


Example Question #1 :How To Find An Angle In A Rhombus

Given: Parallelogramsuch that.

True or false: Parallelogramcannot be a rhombus.

Possible Answers:

False

True

Correct answer:

False

Explanation:

菱形的定义与佛是一个平行四边形ur congruent sides; there is no restriction as to the measures of the angles. Therefore, a rhombus can have angles of any measure. The correct choice is "false".

Example Question #1 :How To Find An Angle In A Rhombus

Given: Rhombuswith diagonalsandintersecting at point.

True or false:must be a right angle.

Possible Answers:

False

True

Correct answer:

True

Explanation:

One characteristic of a rhombus is that its diagonals are perpendicular. It follows thatmust be a right angle.

Example Question #1 :How To Find An Angle In A Rhombus

Given Rhombusand diagonal.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The rhombus referenced is below:

Rhombus

As a rhombus is a parallelogram, consecutive anglesandare supplementary - that is,

.

年代etand solve:

A diagonal of a rhombus bisects the angles at its endpoints, so, specifically,bisects. Therefore,
