Two consecutive angles of a parallelogram have measures 4(x+5) and 2(3x+20), respectively. Find the measures.
----
Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.
----
Equation:
4x+20 + 6x+40 = 180
10x = 120
x = 12
----
4(x+5) = 4(17) = 68 degrees
2(3x+20) = 2(36+20) = 2(56) = 112 degrees
-----------
