Q. A kite has two angles of 70 degrees. The largest of the other angles is four times the size of the smallest angle. Calculate the angles of this kite. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Q. A kite has two angles of 70 degrees. The largest of the other angles is four times the size of the smallest angle. Calculate the angles of this kite.
-------------------------
If the kite has four sides it is a quadrilateral.
The sum of its interior angles is 360 degrees.
If two of the angles are 70 degrees that leaves 220 degrees for the remaining
two angles.
1st angle = x
2nd angle = 4x
------------------
EQUATION:
x + 4x = 220
5x = 220
x = 44 degrees (1st angle size)
4x= 176 degrees (2nd angle size)
