 Exercise 13 A

Question 1

1. The measure of one angle of a parallelogram is $80^{\circ}$. What are the measures of the remaining angles ?

2. Two adjacent angles of a parallelogram are congruent. What is the measure of each?

3. Two adjacent sides of a parallelogram are $5 \mathrm{~cm}$ and $6 \mathrm{~cm}$ respectively. Find its perimeter.

4. Find each angle of a parallelogram if two consecutive angles are in the ratio $1: 3$.

5. The perimeter of a parallelogram is $180 \mathrm{~cm}$. One of its sides is greater than the other by $30 \mathrm{~cm}$. Find the length of the sides of the parallelogram.

6. Find the sizes of the angles of a parallelogram if one angle is $20^{\circ}$ less than twice the smallest angle.

7. $A B C D$ is a parallelogram. Find $x, y$ and $z$.

8. In the figure, find the four angles $A, B, C$ and $D$ of the parallelogram $A B C D$.

9. $A B C D$ is a parallelogram. $C E$ bisects $\angle C$ and $\mathrm{AF}$ bisects $\angle A$. In each of the following, if the statement is true, give a reason for the same.

(i) $\angle A=\angle C$
