Solution

This statement is True.

Explanation:

Since `2sin^theta` and `2^costheta` are positive real numbers, so A.M. (Arithmetic Mean) of these two numbers is greater or equal to their G.M. (Geometric Mean)

Hence `(2^sintheta + 2^costheta)/2 ≥ sqrt(2^sintheta xx 2^costheta)`

= `sqrt(2^(sintheta + costheta))`

`≥ 2 ^((sintheta + costheta)/2) = 2^(1/sqrt(2)(1/sqrt(2) sintheta + 1/sqrt(2) cos theta))`

`≥ 2^(1/sqrt(2) sin(pi/4 + theta))`

Since, `-1 ≤ sin(pi/4 + theta) ≤ 1`

We have `(2^sintheta + 2^costheta)/2 ≥ 2^((-1)/sqrt(2))`

⇒ `2^sintheta + 2^costheta ≥ 2^(1 - 1/sqrt(2))`

Let the angles of the quadrilateral be \[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ \text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\]
We know: \[a - 3d + a - d + a + d + a - 2d = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow 4a = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow a = 90\]
We have:
Greatest angle = 120°
Now,
\[a + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 90 + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 3d = 30\]
\[ \Rightarrow d = 10\]
Hence,
\[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ\text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\] are

\[60^\circ, 80^\circ, 100^\circ\text{ and }120^\circ\], respectively.
