Exercise 37:
Solution 1:
- The sum of the measures of the four angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
∴ In □WXYZ, m∠W + m∠X + m∠Y + m∠Z = 360°
∴ 130° + 100° + m∠Y + 40° = 360°
∴ 270° + m∠Y = 360°
∴ m∠Y = 360° – 270° = 90° - The sum of the measures of the four angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
∴ In □KLMN, m∠K + m∠L + m∠M + m∠N = 360°
∴ 90° + 90° + 90° + m∠N= 360°
∴ 270° + m∠N = 360°
∴ m∠N= 360° – 270° = 90°
Solution 2:
The sum of the measures of the four angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
∴ In □PQRS, m∠P + m∠Q + m∠R + m∠S = 360°
∴ 70° + 115° + 75° + m∠S = 360°
∴ 260° + m∠S = 360°
∴ m∠S = 360° – 260° = 100°
Solution 3:
The sum of the measures of the four angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
If one angle of the quadrilateral is 100°, then the sum of the remaining three angles of the quadrilateral
= 360° – 100°
= 260°
