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.
