In a parallelogram, the bisectors of two adjacent angles meet at a point. The angle between these bisectors is ____ degrees.

  • A81
  • B90
  • C180
  • D99

Step-by-Step Solution

Adjacent angles sum to 180°. Their halves sum to 90°. In the triangle formed, the third angle (between the bisectors) = 180 − 90 = 90°.
Answer: B) 90

Key idea: Special parallelograms

**Rectangle** (parallelogram + all angles 90°):
- All properties of a parallelogram.
- Diagonals are EQUAL (in addition to bisecting each other).

**Rhombus** (parallelogram + all sides equal):
- All properties of a parallelogram.
- Diagonals bisect each other AT RIGHT ANGLES.
- Diagonals also bisect the angles of the rhombus.

**Square** (rectangle + rhombus):
- All properties of both.
- Diagonals: equal, bisect at right angles, AND bisect angles.
