Problem K. 298. (September 2011)

K. 298. Three consecutive sides of a quadrilateral have the same length. The two interior angles enclosed by the three sides are 60o and 70o. What is the measure of the largest angleThree consecutive sides of a quadrilateral have the same length. The two interior angles enclosed by the three sides are 60o and 70o. What is the measure of the largest angle of the quadrilateral? of the quadrilateral?

Megoldás. Használjuk az ábra jelöléseit.

A \(\displaystyle BCD\) háromszög szabályos, ezért \(\displaystyle BD=a\) és ez az átló a \(\displaystyle 70^\circ\)-os szöget \(\displaystyle 10^\circ\) és \(\displaystyle 60^\circ\)-os szögekre bontja. Ezek szerint \(\displaystyle ABD\) háromszög egyenlőszárú, és alapján fekvő szögei \(\displaystyle 85^\circ\)-osak. Ezért a négyszög legnagyobb szöge \(\displaystyle 85^\circ + 60^\circ = 145^\circ\).
