If angles $A, B, C$ and $D$ of the quadrilateral $A B C D$, taken in order are in the ratio $3: 7: 6: 4$, then $A B C D$ is a
(a) rhombus
(b) parallelogram
(c) trapezium
(d) kite
(c) Given, ratio of angles of quadrilateral ABCD is 3 : 7 : 6 : 4.
Let angles of quadrilateral ABCD be 3x, 7x, 6x and 4x, respectively. We know that, sum of all angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
3x + 7x + 6x + 4x = 360°
=> 20x = 360°
=> x=360°/20° = 18°
$\therefore \quad$ Angles of the quadrilateral are
$\angle A=3 \times 18=54^{\circ}$
$\angle B=7 \times 18=126^{\circ}$
$\angle C=6 \times 18=108^{\circ}$
and $\angle D=4 \times 18=72^{\circ}$
From finure. $\quad \angle B C E=180^{\circ}-\angle B C D \quad$ [linear pair axiom]
$\Rightarrow \quad \angle B C E=180^{\circ}-108^{\circ}=72^{\circ}$
Here, $\angle B C E=\angle A D C=72^{\circ}$
Since the corresponding angles are equal.
$\therefore$ $B C \| A D$
Now, sum of cointerior angles,
$\angle A+\angle B=126^{\circ}+54^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$
and $\quad \angle C+\angle D=108^{\circ}+72^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$
Hence, $A B C D$ is a trapezium.
