Question 1177619: One angle of a parallelogram is 12 less than five times the measure of the angle next to it. Find the measure of the adjacent angles of the parallelogram. Show the solution. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! adjacent angles are supplementary
angles are x and 5x-12
they add to 180
so 6x-12=180
6x=192
x=32 degrees one angle
5x-12=148 degrees other angle
