The correct Answer is:
To find the fourth angle of the quadrilateral, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Property of Quadrilaterals**: The sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is always 360 degrees. 2. **List the Given Angles**: The angles provided are: - First angle = 100 degrees - Second angle = 98 degrees - Third angle = 92 degrees 3. **Set Up the Equation**: Let the fourth angle be represented as \( x \). According to the property mentioned, we can write the equation: \[ 100 + 98 + 92 + x = 360 \] 4. **Calculate the Sum of the Known Angles**: First, we will add the three given angles: \[ 100 + 98 + 92 = 290 \] 5. **Substitute the Sum into the Equation**: Now, substitute the sum back into the equation: \[ 290 + x = 360 \] 6. **Solve for \( x \)**: To find \( x \), subtract 290 from both sides: \[ x = 360 - 290 \] \[ x = 70 \] 7. **Conclusion**: The fourth angle of the quadrilateral is \( 70 \) degrees. ### Final Answer: The fourth angle is \( 70 \) degrees.
