The interior angles of a quadrilateral are (x + 15)o, (2x – 45)o and (x + 10)o. Find the value of the least interior angle.
  • A.
    112o
  • B.
    102o
  • C.
    82o
  • D.
    52o
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

(x + 15)o + (2x – 45)o + (x + 10)o = (2n – 4)90o
when n = 4
x + 15o + 2x – 45o + x – 30o + x + 10o = (2 x 4 – 4) 90o
5x – 50o = (8 – 4)90o
5x – 50o = 4 x 90o = 360o
5x = 360o + 50o
5x = 410o
x = (frac{410^o}{5})
= 82o
Hence, the value of the least interior angle is (x – 30o)
= (82 – 30)o
= 52o
