Answer : 1. "225 deg"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 225 deg Explanation: Angle of triangle = 180 × 3/12 = 45 deg Other angles of the triangle are = 60 deg, 75 deg Angle of quadrilateral = 360 - (45 + 60 + 75) = 180 deg Therefore, the four angles of the quadrilateral are 45, 60, 75 & 180 degrees. Hence, the sum of largest and smallest angle of the quadrilateral are 180 + 45 = 225 deg.

Answer : 3. "3.75 km"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 3.75 km Explanation: Let 'd' be the distance between A and BK -time = d/10 + d/9 = 19d/90 hoursL -time = 2d/12 = d/6 hoursWe know that, 10 min = 1/6 hoursThus, time difference between K and L is given as 10 minutes. => 19d/90 - d/6 = 1/6=> (19d-15d)/90 = 1/6=> 4d/90 = 1/6Thus,d= 15/4 km = 3.75 km. hence the distance between A and B is 3.75 km.
