Answer» Sum of four angles of a quadrilateral = 360° Angles are in arithmetic sequence, so first angle + 3 x common difference (d) = 150° i.e., f + 3d = 150 The four angles are f, f + d, f + 2d, f + 3d. f + f + d + f + 2d + f + 3d = 360° f + f + d + f + 2d + 150 = 360° 3f + 3d = 360° - 150 = 210 3(f + d) = 210 f + d = \(\frac{210}{3}=70\) The four angles are f, 70, f + 2d, 150 . f + 2d = \(\frac{150+70}{2}=110\) Common difference = 110 – 70 = 40 First angle = 70 – 40 = 30 So, the four angles are 30, 70, 110, 150 |
