The correct Answer is:
To find the fourth angle of a quadrilateral when three angles are given as 75°, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the sum of angles in a quadrilateral**: The sum of all interior angles in a quadrilateral is always 360°. 2. **List the known angles**: We know that three angles are each 75°. So, we can denote the angles as: - Angle A = 75° - Angle B = 75° - Angle C = 75° 3. **Calculate the sum of the known angles**: Now, we need to find the total of the three angles: \[ \text{Sum of known angles} = 75° + 75° + 75° = 225° \] 4. **Set up the equation for the fourth angle**: Let the fourth angle be denoted as Angle D. According to the property of quadrilaterals: \[ \text{Angle A} + \text{Angle B} + \text{Angle C} + \text{Angle D} = 360° \] Substituting the known values: \[ 225° + \text{Angle D} = 360° \] 5. **Solve for Angle D**: To find Angle D, we rearrange the equation: \[ \text{Angle D} = 360° - 225° \] \[ \text{Angle D} = 135° \] ### Final Answer: The fourth angle of the quadrilateral is **135°**. ---
