Find the measure of the other angles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-ast-global-color-6-color\">The Correct Answer and Explanation is:<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a rhombus, opposite angles are equal, and the sum of adjacent angles is always 180\u00b0 because a rhombus is a type of parallelogram. Here, we have rhombus ABCD, where angle A is given as 100\u00b0. Let&#8217;s analyze the measures of the other angles in this rhombus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solution:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Since angle A is 100\u00b0, its opposite angle, angle C, must also be 100\u00b0 because opposite angles in a rhombus are congruent (equal). So, angle C = 100\u00b0.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In a rhombus, adjacent angles are supplementary, meaning their sum is 180\u00b0. Therefore, angle A and angle B are supplementary: [<br>\\text{angle A} + \\text{angle B} = 180\u00b0<br>]<br>[<br>100\u00b0 + \\text{angle B} = 180\u00b0<br>]<br>[<br>\\text{angle B} = 180\u00b0 &#8211; 100\u00b0 = 80\u00b0<br>]<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Since angle B is 80\u00b0, its opposite angle, angle D, is also 80\u00b0. So, angle D = 80\u00b0.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary of Angle Measures:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Angle A = 100\u00b0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Angle C = 100\u00b0 (opposite to angle A)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Angle B = 80\u00b0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Angle D = 80\u00b0 (opposite to angle B)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The properties of a rhombus provide a straightforward way to find unknown angles once one angle is known. A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides of equal length and opposite angles that are equal. Additionally, adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary, which means they add up to 180\u00b0. Knowing this, we determined that since angle A is 100\u00b0, angle C (opposite angle) is also 100\u00b0. Then, using the property of supplementary angles, we calculated angle B by subtracting angle A from 180\u00b0, giving us 80\u00b0 for both angle B and its opposite, angle D. This consistency in angle measures reflects the symmetry of a rhombus, where opposite angles are equal, and adjacent angles always add to 180\u00b0.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A rhombus.
