Detailed Solution

Given, a quadrilateral has three acute angles, each of measure 80°.
The angle sum property of a quadrilateral states that the sum of all the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360 ° .
Using this property,
We will determine the fourth angle of the given quadrilateral with three acute angles, each of 80°.
So, let us assume the measure of the fourth angle of the quadrilateral to be x .
So, applying the angle sum property, we have,
x ° + 80 ° + 80 ° + 80 ° = 360 ° 240+ x ° = 360 ° x=360240 x= 120 °
So, the measure of the fourth angle is found to be 120 .
Hence, the correct option is (2).
