The correct Answer is:
To find the measure of angle ABC in rhombus ABCD, where the measure of angle CAB is given as 25 degrees, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the properties of a rhombus A rhombus has the following properties: - All sides are equal in length. - Opposite angles are equal. - Adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180 degrees). ### Step 2: Identify the angles In rhombus ABCD, we have: - Angle CAB = 25 degrees (given). - Since AB = BC (sides of the rhombus), angle ABC (which we need to find) will also be equal to angle CAB. ### Step 3: Use the property of opposite angles Since opposite angles are equal in a rhombus: - Angle ABC = Angle CAB = 25 degrees. ### Step 4: Find angle ACB Now, we can find angle ACB using the property of supplementary angles: - Angle CAB + Angle ABC + Angle ACB = 180 degrees. - Let angle ACB = x. - Therefore, 25 + 25 + x = 180. - This simplifies to 50 + x = 180. - Solving for x gives us x = 180 - 50 = 130 degrees. ### Step 5: Conclusion Thus, the measure of angle ABC is 130 degrees. ### Final Answer: Angle ABC = 130 degrees. ---
