□ABCD is a parallelogram. [Given]
∴ ∠A + ∠B = 180° [Adjacent angles of a
parallelogram are supplementary],
∴ (3x + 12)° + (2x-32)° = 180°
∴ 3x + 12 + 2x – 32 = 180
∴ 5x – 20 = 180
∴ 5x= 180 + 20
∴ 5x = 200
∴ x =\(\frac{200}{5}\)
∴ x = 40
ii. ∠A = (3x + 12)°
= [3(40) + 12]°
=(120 +12)°= 132°
∠B = (2x – 32)°
= [2(40) – 32]°
= (80 – 32)° = 48°
∴ ∠C = ∠A = 132°
∠D = ∠B = 48° [Opposite angles of a parallelogram]
∴ The value of x is 40, and the measures of ∠C and ∠D are 132° and 48° respectively.
