The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given sets of angles could represent the angles of a parallelogram, we need to recall the properties of a parallelogram. In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal, and the sum of the angles in any quadrilateral is 360 degrees. Let's analyze the options step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first option The first option gives us the angles: \(50^\circ, 130^\circ, 50^\circ, 130^\circ\). - **Check for opposite angles:** - Angle A = \(50^\circ\) and Angle C = \(50^\circ\) (opposite angles) - Angle B = \(130^\circ\) and Angle D = \(130^\circ\) (opposite angles) - **Check the sum of angles:** \[ 50^\circ + 130^\circ + 50^\circ + 130^\circ = 360^\circ \] Since both conditions are satisfied (opposite angles are equal and the sum of angles is \(360^\circ\)), the first option is valid. ### Step 2: Analyze the second option The second option gives us the angles: \(125^\circ, 50^\circ, 125^\circ, 60^\circ\). - **Check for opposite angles:** - Angle A = \(125^\circ\) and Angle C = \(125^\circ\) (opposite angles) - Angle B = \(50^\circ\) and Angle D = \(60^\circ\) (not equal) Since the opposite angles are not equal (Angle B and Angle D), this option does not satisfy the properties of a parallelogram. ### Conclusion Based on the analysis: - The first option \(50^\circ, 130^\circ, 50^\circ, 130^\circ\) is valid. - The second option \(125^\circ, 50^\circ, 125^\circ, 60^\circ\) is not valid. Thus, the correct answer is that only the first option could represent the angles of a parallelogram.
