In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD
,
. Find the four angles.
In a cyclic quadrilateral sum of opposite angles is 180°.
Given, in a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD
,
∴ ∠A + ∠C = 180° and ∠B + ∠D = 180°
⇒ 2x + 4 + 2y + 10 = 180 and y + 3 + 4x – 5 = 180
⇒ x + y = 83 --------- (1) and y + 4x = 182 ---------- (2)
Subtracting eq1 from eq2.
⇒ y + 4x – x – y = 182 – 83
⇒ 3x = 99
⇒ x = 33
Substituting in eq1.
⇒ y = 50
∠A = 2 × 33 + 4 = 70°
∠B = 50 + 3 = 53°
∠C = 2 × 50 + 10 = 110°
∠D = 4 × 33 – 5 = 127°
