Solution
Fourth angle =360∘−(60∘+110∘+85∘)=360∘−255∘=105∘ Steps of Construction Step I: Draw NE = 7 cm. Step II: Make ∠NEX=110∘. Step III: With E as centre and radius 6 cm, draw an arc, cutting EX at W. Step IV: Make ∠EWY=105∘. Step V: Make ∠ENZ=60∘, so that NZ and WY intersect each other at point S.
Thus, NEWS is the required quadrilateral.
