Assertion: If three angles of a quadrilateral are 130°, 70° and 60°, then the fourth angles is 100°.
Question:
Assertion: If three angles of a quadrilateral are 130°, 70° and 60°, then the fourth angles is 100°.
Reason: The sum of all the angle of a quadrilateral is 360°.
(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is a correct explanation of Assertion.
(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of Assertion.
(c) Assertion is true and Reason is false.
(d) Assertion is false and Reason is true.
Solution:
(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is a correct explanation of Assertion.
Explanation:
Fourth angle = 360o − (130o + 70o + 60o) = 100o
Clearly, reason (R) and assertion (A) are both true and the reason gives the assertion.
Hence, the correct answer is (a).
