Quadrilaterals

Question
CBSEENMA9009839

The angles of quadrilateral are in the ratio 3: 5: 9: 13.

Find all the angles of the quadrilateral.

Solution

Let the common ratio between the angles be x. Therefore, the angles will be 3x, 5x, 9x, and 13x respectively.

As the sum of all interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360º,

∴ 3+ 5+ 9+ 13x = 360º

30= 360º

= 12º

Hence, the angles are

3x = 3 × 12 = 36º

5x = 5 × 12 = 60º

9x = 9 × 12 = 108º

13x = 13 × 12 = 156º
