MCQ
In a quadrilateral $ABCD$, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}$ is 2 times $\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D}$ If $\angle\text{A}=140^\circ$ and $\angle\text{D}=60^\circ$ then $\angle\text{B}=$
- ✓$60^\circ $
- B$80^\circ $
- C$120^\circ$
- DNone of these.
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$60^\circ $
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}+\angle\text{D}=360^\circ\dots(1)$
Now, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}=2(\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D})$ (given) $...(2)$
Also, $\angle\text{A}=140^\circ,\ \angle\text{D}=60^\circ$
Putting value of $(\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C})$ from eq. $(2)$ in eq. $(1)$
$2(\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D})+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D}=360^\circ$
$3(\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D})=360^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D}=120^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}+60^\circ=120^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}=60^\circ$
Now, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}=2(\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D})$ (given) $...(2)$
Also, $\angle\text{A}=140^\circ,\ \angle\text{D}=60^\circ$
Putting value of $(\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C})$ from eq. $(2)$ in eq. $(1)$
$2(\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D})+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D}=360^\circ$
$3(\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D})=360^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D}=120^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}+60^\circ=120^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}=60^\circ$
