Question

A quadrilateral has three acute angles each measures 80°. What is the measure of the fourth angle?

Short Note

Solution

\[\text{ Let x be the fourth angle }  . \]

\[ \text{ Since, the sum of all angles of a quadrilateral is }  360°, \text{ we have: }  \]

\[80° + 80° + 80° + x = 360° \]

\[ \Rightarrow 240° + x = 360° \]

\[ \Rightarrow x = 120° \]

\[ \therefore \text{ The fourth angle is } 120° .\]
