In the given figure, ΔABC, if θ = 80o, the measure of the twice the sum of the other two angles will be:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 200°.

The given triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle in which the angles facing the equal sides are equal in measure.

The sum of all the three angles in a triangle is 180°.

∠ABC = ∠ACB

Let the measure of angle be x.

⇒ x + x + 80° = 180°

⇒ 2x = 100°

x = 50°

Sum = x + x = 50 + 50 = 100°

Twice of the sum = 2 × 100 = 200°
