Construction of Quadrilaterals - I
A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides.
A quadrilateral can be constructed uniquely if
four sides and one diagonal are given.
three sides and two diagonals are given.
two adjacent sides and three angles are given.
three sides and two included angles are given.
four sides and one angle are given.
three sides and two consecutive angles are given.
Mathematical constructions have many applications in our real life. The most common application is in designing in the construction industry.

Q2
In a quadrilateral PQRS, if
P= 60°, Q = 75°, and R = 120°, then S isMarks:1View AnswerAnswer:
105°.
Explanation:
In a quadrilateral the sum of measures of angle is 360°.
So,S=360° - (60°+75°+120°)=105° -
