    Smallest angle of a triangle is equal to two-third the smallest angle of a quadrilateral. The ratio between the angles of the quadrilateral is 3: 4: 5: 6. Largest angle of the triangle is twice its smallest angle. What is the sum of second largest angle of the triangle and largest angle of the quadrilateral?

    A) \[160{}^\circ \]            

    B) \[180{}^\circ \]

    C) \[190{}^\circ \]            

    D) \[170{}^\circ \]

    E) None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let the angles of the quadrilateral be \[3x,\]\[4x,\]\[5x\]and \[6x,\] respectively.
    Then, \[3x+4x+5x+6x=360{}^\circ \]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[18x=360{}^\circ \]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[x=20{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \]Smallest angle of quadrilateral \[=3x=60{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \]Smallest angle of the triangle \[=60{}^\circ \times \frac{2}{3}=40{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \]Largest angle of the triangle \[=40{}^\circ \times 2=80{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \]Second largest angle of the triangle \[=60{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \]Sum of the second largest angle of triangle and
    largest angle of quadrilateral \[=60{}^\circ +6\times 20{}^\circ \]
    \[=60{}^\circ +120{}^\circ =180{}^\circ \]
