The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to verify the assertion and the reason provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Angles**: We have three angles of a quadrilateral: - Angle 1 = 130° - Angle 2 = 70° - Angle 3 = 60° 2. **Use the Property of Quadrilaterals**: The sum of all interior angles of a quadrilateral is always 360°. 3. **Set Up the Equation**: Let the fourth angle be represented as \( x \). According to the property mentioned, we can write the equation: \[ x + 130° + 70° + 60° = 360° \] 4. **Combine the Known Angles**: First, add the known angles together: \[ 130° + 70° + 60° = 260° \] 5. **Substitute and Solve for \( x \)**: Now substitute the sum of the known angles back into the equation: \[ x + 260° = 360° \] To find \( x \), subtract 260° from both sides: \[ x = 360° - 260° = 100° \] 6. **Conclusion**: The fourth angle is \( 100° \). Therefore, the assertion that the fourth angle is \( 100° \) is correct. 7. **Evaluate the Reason**: The reason states that the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is \( 360° \), which is a true statement. 8. **Final Assessment**: Both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. ### Answer: The correct answer is: (a) Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion. ---
