A quadrilateral has two angles that measure \( 44.8^{\circ} \) and \( 173.2^{\circ} \). The other two angles are in a ratio of \( 3: 17 \). What are the measures of those two angles?

The other two angles are 21.3° and 120.7°.

Solución

The sum of the angles in any quadrilateral is 360°. Two of the angles are already given as 44.8° and 173.2°, which adds up to: 44.8° + 173.2° = 218° This means the remaining two angles must add up to: 360° − 218° = 142° Let the measures of the remaining two angles be represented as 3x and 17x (since they are in a 3:17 ratio). Their sum is: 3x + 17x = 20x Set this equal to 142°: 20x = 142 Now solve for x: x = 142 / 20 x = 7.1 Now, calculate the two angles: First angle = 3x = 3 * 7.1 = 21.3° Second angle = 17x = 17 * 7.1 = 120.7° Thus, the measures of the other two angles are 21.3° and 120.7°.

The Deep Dive

The sum of the interior angles in a quadrilateral is \( 360^{\circ} \). Therefore, we can find the sum of the other two angles by subtracting the measures of the known angles from \( 360^{\circ} \): \[ 360^{\circ} - (44.8^{\circ} + 173.2^{\circ}) = 360^{\circ} - 218^{\circ} = 142^{\circ}. \] Let the measures of the other two angles be \( 3x \) and \( 17x \). According to the ratio given, we add these two angles to equal \( 142^{\circ} \): \[ 3x + 17x = 142^{\circ} \] This simplifies to: \[ 20x = 142^{\circ} \implies x = \frac{142^{\circ}}{20} = 7.1^{\circ}. \] Now we can find the measures of the two angles: \[ 3x = 3 \times 7.1^{\circ} = 21.3^{\circ}, \quad 17x = 17 \times 7.1^{\circ} = 120.7^{\circ}. \] Thus, the measures of the other two angles are \( 21.3^{\circ} \) and \( 120.7^{\circ} \).
