We know that the sum of all the exterior angles in
a polygon is 360°. At each vertex of the polygon
where there is an acute angle, the exterior angle is
greater than 90°. If there are four or more acute
angles, then the sum of the exterior angles at these
vertices will be greater than 360°, which is
impossible.

SAC = ASC = a
ACS = 180° – 2a
∵ PQCS is a rhombus,
S = Q = a
Now,
QC = BC
CBQ = BQC = a
Also, a + b + ABC = 180°
a + b = 120° …(i)
Also, d = 180° – 2a …(ii)
S + C = 180° [∵ PQCS is a rhombus]
a + 180° – 2a + 180° – 2a + 60º = 180º
3a = 240°
a = 80°
From (ii), d = 20°
and from (i), b = 40°

105. Answer (3)
106. Answer (2)
a + 1 = b + 2 = c + 3 = d + 4 = a + b + c + d + 5
a + 1 = b + 2
b = a – 1
Similarly, a + 1 = c + 3, d = a – 3 and c = a – 2
Now, a + b + c + d + 5 = d + 4
a + b + c = – 1
a + a – 1 + a – 2 = –1
3a = 2
a = 2
