उत्तर
As the trapezium ABCD is a quadrilateral,
∴ Sum of its interior angles = 360°
⇒ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°
⇒ 3x + 4x + 5x + 6x = 360°
⇒ 18x = 360°
⇒ x = `360^circ/18 = 20°`
∴ ∠A = 3x = 3 × 20° = 60°
and ∠B = 4x = 4 × 20° = 80°
and ∠C = 5x = 5 × 20° = 100°
and ∠D = 6x = 6 × 20° = 120°
AB is parallel to DC.
∵ ∠A + ∠D = 180°
∠A and ∠D are co-interior angles whose sum = 180°
