Q:

The angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio of 2:4:7:5. The smallest angle of the quadrilateral is equal to the smallest angle of a triangle. One of the angles of the triangle is twice the smallest angle of the triangle. What is the second largest angle of the triangle ?

A) 80 degrees B) 60 degrees
C) 120 degrees D) 40 degrees
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 60 degrees

Explanation:

Given the angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio of 2:4:7:5
Let the angles of a quadrilateral are 2x, 4x, 7x, 5x
But we know that sum of the angles = 360 degrees.
=> 2x + 4x + 7x + 5x = 360
=> x = 20
Therfore, the smallest angle of the quadrilateral = 2x = 2x20 = 40 degrees.
One of the angle of the triangle = 2 x 40 = 80 degrees
The other angle is 180 - (40 + 80) = 60 degrees.

Hence the second largest angle of the triangle is 60 degrees.

A) 6 years B) 4 years
C) 7 years D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) None

Kapil’s present age = 8 + 2 = 10 years.

Father's age is twice of Kapil’s age after 10 years.
=> F + 10 = 2 (K + 10) = 2 (10+ 10)
F = 30years,
