Question
Two angles of a quadrilateral are 68° and 76°. If the other two angles are in the ratio 5 : 7; find the measure of each of them.
Solution
Two angles are 68° and 76°
Let other two angles be 5x and 7x
68° + 76°+ 5x + 7x = 360°
12x + 144° = 360°
12x = 360° – 144°
12x = 216°
x = 18°
angles are 5x and 7x
i.e. 5 x 18° and 7 x 18° i.e. 90° and 126°
