quadrilateral.
Answers
Question:-
The angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio 3:5:9:13. Find all the angles of the
quadrilateral.
Solution:-
Let us assume that the angles are 3a,5a,9a and 13a.
We know, that in a quadrilateral sum of all angles is 360°.
________________________
So,
=3a+5a+9a+13a=360°
=30a=360°
=a=12°
______________________________
So, the angles are,
>3a=3(12°)=36°;
>5a=5(12°)=60°;
>9a=9(12°)=108°;
>13a=13(12°)=196°
_______________________________
So, thus the angles are 36°,60°,108° and 196°.

AnswEr :
- The all angles of a quadrilateral is 36°, 60°, 108°, and 156° respectively.
⠀
Explanation :
We are given with the angles of a quadrilateral but we have been given in the ratio, that is,
- 3 : 5 : 9 : 13.
We have to find out the all angles of a quadrilateral
⠀____________________________
Now,
Let us assume that, the angles of a quadrilateral is 3x, 5x, 9x and 13x.
As we are given with the ratio of angles of a quadrilateral.
As we know that
The sum of all angles of a quadilateral is 360°. This statement is known as 'angle sum property of quadrilateral'.
⇒ 3x + 5x + 9x + 13x = 360
⇒ 8x + 9x + 13x = 360
⇒ 17x + 13x = 360
⇒ 30x = 360
⇒ x = 360/30
⇒ x = 36/3
⇒ x = 12
⠀
Therefore,
The all angles of a quadrilateral will be,
⠀
- 3x = 3 × 12 = 36°.
- 5x = 5 × 12 = 60°.
- 9x = 9 × 12 = 108°.
- 13x = 13 × 12 = 156°.
Hence, the all angles of a quadrilateral is 36°, 60°, 108°, and 156° respectively.
