Sum of all the angles in Quadrilateral is equal to 360

so, 360 = 80+110+75+x

x = 360-265

x = 95

OPTION C IS YOUR ANSWER.

Answer:

C. \(95^{\circ}\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent 4th angle of the given quadrilateral.

We have been that a quadrilateral has three angles that measure \(80^{\circ}\), \(110^{\circ}\) and \(75^{\circ}\). We are asked to find the measure of the fourth angle.

We know that all the interior angles of a quadrilateral are equal to 360 degrees, so we can set an equation as:

\(x+80^{\circ}+110^{\circ}+75^{\circ}=360^{\circ}\)

\(x+265^{\circ}=360^{\circ}\)

\(x+265^{\circ}-265^{\circ}=360^{\circ}-265^{\circ}\)

\(x=95^{\circ}\)

Therefore, the measure of 4th angle is 95 degrees and option C is the correct choice.
