72o
100o
120o
144o
Correct answer is D
The diagram given simple illustrates that a pentagon contains three \(\Delta\)s.
Two angles which are in the ratio 2:3 will have actual values 2xo, 3xo respectively. Thus 2xo + 3xo + 3 x 60 = 3x sum of angles of \(\Delta\)a
i.e. 5xo + 180o = 3 x 180o
5xo + 180o = 540o
5xo = 540o - 180o
5xo = 360o
xo = \(\frac{360^o}{5}\)
= 72o
Hence, the smaller of the two angles is
2 x 72o = 144o
