The angles of a quadrilateral are 5x-30, 4x+60, 60-x and 3x+61.find the smallest of these angles​

A.

5x - 30

B.

4x + 60

C.

60 - x

D.

3x + 61

Correct Answer: 60 - x

Explanation

Sum of all 4 angles of a quadrilateral = 360° (5x-30) + (3x + 61) + (60-x) + (4x+ 60) = 360° 11x + 151 = 360° 11x = 360 - 151 = 209 x = 209/11 = 19° Each angles is : 5x - 30 = 65° 4x+ 60 = 136° 60 - x =41° 3x + 61 = 118° Smallest of these angles is 41°
