  1. (a) Using angle sum property of a quadrilateral,
    50°+130°+120°+x=360°
    ⇒ 300°+x=360°
    ⇒ x=360°-300° ⇒x=360°
    (b) Using angle sum property of a quadrilateral,
    90°+60°+70°+x=360°
    ⇒ 220°+x=360°
    ⇒x=360°-220° ⇒x=140°
    (c) First base interior angle = 180°-70°=110°
    Second base interior angle = 180°-60°=120°
    There are 5 sides, = 5 n
    ∴ Angle sum of a polygon = (n-2)x180°
    = (5-2)x180°=3×180 =540°
    ∴ 30°+x+110°+120°+x=540°
    ⇒ 260°+2x+540° ⇒2x=540°-260°
    ⇒ 2x=280° ⇒x=140°

    (d) Angle sum of a polygon = (n-2)x180°
    = (5-2)x180°= 3×180° = 540°
    ∴ x+x+x+x+x =540°
    ⇒ 5x=540° ⇒ x=108°
    Hence each interior angle is 108°
