    length of diagonals are BD = 33.039 cm and AC = 38.84 cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    given,

    sides of parallelogram is 20 cm and 30 cm

    Angle between them is 80°. opposite angle of parallelogram are same the opposite angle is same.

    other angle = 360° - 80° - 80° + 2 x = 200

    x = 100°

    Using cosine law

    c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos γ

    In ΔDAB

    BD² = 30² + 20 ² - 2 * 30 * 20 cos 80°

    BD = 33.039 cm

    now in ΔADC

    c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos γ

    AC² = 20² + 30² - 2 * 30 * 20 cos 100°

    AC = 38.84 cm

    length of diagonals are BD = 33.039 cm and AC = 38.84 cm
