The correct Answer is:
To find the fourth angle of the quadrilateral, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the properties of a quadrilateral**: The sum of all interior angles in a quadrilateral is always 360 degrees. 2. **List the known angles**: We are given three angles of the quadrilateral: - Angle 1 = 80 degrees - Angle 2 = 70 degrees - Angle 3 = 120 degrees 3. **Set up the equation**: Let the fourth angle be represented as \( x \). According to the property of quadrilaterals, we can write the equation: \[ 80 + 70 + 120 + x = 360 \] 4. **Calculate the sum of the known angles**: Add the three angles together: \[ 80 + 70 = 150 \] \[ 150 + 120 = 270 \] 5. **Substitute the sum back into the equation**: Now we can substitute the sum of the known angles back into the equation: \[ 270 + x = 360 \] 6. **Solve for \( x \)**: To find the value of \( x \), subtract 270 from both sides: \[ x = 360 - 270 \] \[ x = 90 \] 7. **Conclusion**: The fourth angle of the quadrilateral is \( 90 \) degrees. ### Final Answer: The fourth angle is \( 90^\circ \).
