The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the measures of angles B, C, and D in rhombus ABCD, given that angle A = 60°. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the properties of a rhombus**: - In a rhombus, opposite angles are equal, and adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°). - Therefore, if angle A = 60°, then angle C (the opposite angle) will also be 60°. **Hint**: Remember that in a rhombus, opposite angles are equal. 2. **Calculate angle B**: - Since angles A and B are adjacent, we can use the property that they are supplementary: \[ \text{Angle A} + \text{Angle B} = 180° \] \[ 60° + \text{Angle B} = 180° \] \[ \text{Angle B} = 180° - 60° = 120° \] **Hint**: Use the supplementary angle property (angles that add up to 180°) for adjacent angles. 3. **Calculate angle D**: - Similarly, angle D is opposite to angle B, so: \[ \text{Angle D} = \text{Angle B} = 120° \] **Hint**: Remember that opposite angles in a rhombus are equal. 4. **Summarize the angles**: - We have found: - Angle A = 60° - Angle B = 120° - Angle C = 60° - Angle D = 120° **Hint**: Always check that the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral equals 360°. ### Final Answer: - Angle B = 120° - Angle C = 60° - Angle D = 120°
