Question 57286: A parallelogram has 4 sides where opposite sides are equal. One angle is 60 and the other angle is 120. The problem says solve for x and x is opposite the 120 angle. The answer says that it is 60, but I think that it is 120. Who is right? If you opposite angles are equal then it is 120 and the sheet is wrong. But if you take x+60+120+2x=360, x=60. HELP!

IF ABCD IS THE PARALLELOGRAM..IN THAT ORDER EITHER CLOCKWISE OR ANTICLOCKWISE AND
IF ANGLE A = ANGLE C = 120 SAY
THEN ANGLE B = ANGLE D = 60 EACH..
OR
IF ANGLE A = ANGLE C = 60 SAY
THEN ANGLE B = ANGLE D = 120 EACH..
I AM NOT SURE WHAT YOUR X OR 2X ARE.
