The other two angles are 39° and 48°.

Solución

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°. Two of the angles are given as 103° and 170°, so we first add them together:   103° + 170° = 273°. Subtracting this from 360° gives the total of the other two angles:   360° - 273° = 87°. Let the measures of the remaining two angles be 13k and 16k (because they are in the ratio 13:16). Their sum is:   13k + 16k = 29k = 87°. Solving for k:   k = 87° ÷ 29 = 3. Now, substitute back to find the angles:   First angle: 13k = 13 × 3 = 39°.   Second angle: 16k = 16 × 3 = 48°. Thus, the measures of the other two angles are 39° and 48°.

The Deep Dive

To find the measures of the two unknown angles in the quadrilateral, we start by recalling that the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is always \( 360^{\circ} \). You have two angles measuring \( 103^{\circ} \) and \( 170^{\circ} \). Adding these two gives: \[ 103^{\circ} + 170^{\circ} = 273^{\circ} \] Now, we can find the sum of the other two angles: \[ 360^{\circ} - 273^{\circ} = 87^{\circ} \] Let the measures of the two unknown angles be \( 13x \) and \( 16x \) according to the given ratio \( 13:16 \). Setting up the equation based on their sum, we have: \[ 13x + 16x = 87 \] Combining like terms yields: \[ 29x = 87 \] Solving for \( x \): \[ x = \frac{87}{29} = 3 \] Now we can find the measures of the two angles: \[ 13x = 13 \times 3 = 39^{\circ} \] \[ 16x = 16 \times 3 = 48^{\circ} \] Thus, the measures of the two unknown angles are \( 39^{\circ} \) and \( 48^{\circ} \).
