Suppose the measures of four angles are 3x, 5x, 9x and 13x.
∴ 3x + 5x + 9x + 13x = 360° [Angle sum property of a quadrilateral]
⇒ 30x = 360°
⇒ x = 360/ 30 ° = 12°
⇒ 3x = 3 × 12° = 36°
5x = 5 × 12° = 60°
9x = 9 × 12° = 108°
13x = 13 × 12° = 156°
∴ the angles of the quadrilateral are 36°, 60°, 108° and 156° Ans
Given the ratio between the angles of the quadrilateral = 3 : 5 : 9 : 13 and 3 + 5 + 9 + 13 = 30
Since, the sum of the angles of the quadrilateral = 3600
∴ First angle of it = 3/30 × 3600 = 360 ,
Second angle = 5/30 × 3600 = 600 ,
Third angle = 9/30 × 3600 = 1080 ,
And, Fourth angle = 13/30 × 3600 = 1560
∴ The angles of quadrilateral are 3600 , 600 , 1080 and 1560 .
The angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio 3 : 5 : 9 : 13.
Let ∠A+ ∠B : ∠C : ∠D = 3 : 5 : 9 : 13.
Sum of ratio = 3x + 5x + 9x + 13x = 30x
Sum of 4 angles of quadrilateral is 360°
∴ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°
3x + 5x + 9x + 13x = 360
30x = 360 ∴ x = = 12°
∠A = 3x = 3 × 12 = 36°
∠B = 5x = 5 × 12 = 60°
∠C = 9x = 9 × 12 = 108°
∠D = 13x = 13 × 12 = 156°
