If angles of a quadrilateral are x, x+3, X+8 and x+9 the greatest angle is
Answers
Solution :
Here, four angles of a quadrilateral are given as x°, (x + 3)°, (x + 8)° and (x + 9)°. We've to find the value of x as well as all angles of a quadrilateral.
Let
- ∠1 = x°
- ∠2 = (x + 3)°
- ∠3 = (x + 8)°
- ∠4 = (x + 9)°
As we know that :
Sum of all angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
i.e. ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 + ∠4 = 360°
Now, put the values in the formula and solve.
➟ x + (x + 3) + (x + 8) + (x + 9) = 360
➟ x + x + 3 + x + 8 + x + 9 = 360
➟ x + x + x + x + 3 + 8 + 9 = 360
➟ 4x + 11 + 9 = 360
➟ 4x + 20 = 360
➟ 4x = 360 - 20
➟ 4x = 340
➟ x = 340/4
➟ x = 85°
Now, put the value of x in the angles.
- ∠1 = x = 85°
- ∠2 = x + 3 = 88°
- ∠3 = x + 8 = 93°
- ∠4 = x + 9 = 94°
∴ Largest angle of the quadrilateral is 94°.
Answer:
We known that,
Step-by-step explanation:
In a quadrilateral the sum of the angles is 360°
Hence,
x+x+3 +x+8+x+9= 360
4x+20= 360
4x= 340
x= 340/4
x=85.
Value of x is 85.
