    In the figure given, PTU is a straight line. What is the value of x'?

    A)  \[{{100}^{o}}\]                

    B)                         \[{{110}^{o}}\]                

    C)                         \[{{120}^{o}}\]                

    D)                         \[{{130}^{o}}\]                

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\angle STP={{180}^{o}}-{{85}^{o}}={{95}^{o}}\] Sum of all interior angles of 'n' sided polygon \[=(n-2)\times {{180}^{o}}\] \[=(5-2)\times {{180}^{o}}=3\times {{180}^{o}}={{540}^{o}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[x+{{90}^{o}}+{{125}^{o}}+{{130}^{o}}+{{95}^{o}}={{540}^{o}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x+{{440}^{o}}={{540}^{o}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x={{540}^{o}}-{{440}^{o}}={{100}^{o}}\]
