in a quadrilateral PQRS the measures of the angles PQRS are in the ratio 1:2:3:4, then PQRS is a
Answers
Answer:
ratio of measures of angles of quadrilateral=1:2:3:4
let the common multiple be x
: .the angles are x,2x,3x,4x
the sum of measures of angles of quadrilateral are 360°
: .x+2x+3x+4x=360°
10x=360
: .x=36°
: .the angles are
x=36°
2x=36×2=72°
3x=108°
4x=144°
x and4x are adjacent angles and 2x and 3x are adjacent angles and their sums are 180° : . the quadrilateral is a parallelogram
Given :
⬤ Measure of Angles of Quadrilateral , PQRS are in ratio 1 : 2 : 3 : 4 .
To Find :
⬤ Measure of Each Angle .
Solution :
Let :
- The Four angles of Quadrilateral be = x , 2x , 3x and 4x .
Now : -
As we know that , The Sum of all angles of a Quadrilateral is 360 degree . Hence ,
10x = 360°
x = 360/10
x = 36
Therefore , The Value of x is 36 .
Hence ,
Measure of First Angle = x
= 36°
Measure of Second Angle = 2x
= 2(36)
= 72°
Measure of Third Angle = 3x
= 3(36)
= 108°
Measure of Fourth Angle = 4x
= 4(36)
= 144°
Therefore , The Four angles of Quadrilateral are 36° , 72° , 108° and 144° .
