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.

Q

d

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°

103. Answer (1)

Let the number be x.

Now, 54x – 45x = 720

x = 80

So, the new product = 80 × 54 = 4320.

104. Answer (1)

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

a + b + c + d = a – 4 = 2– 4
