Detailed Solution

Given, the angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio 1:2 :3:4.
The angle sum property of a quadrilateral states that the sum of all interior angle measures of a quadrilateral is always 360 ° .
Now, based on the given ratio of the interior angles, let us assume that the interior angle measures of the given quadrilateral are x ,2 x ,3 x and 4 x .
So, by the angle sum property of a quadrilateral, we have,
  x ° +2 x ° +3 x ° +4 x ° = 360 ° 10 x ° = 360 ° x= 360 10 x= 36 °
Now, as the smallest angle in terms of ratio is x , so the smallest angle measure of the quadrilateral is 36 .
Hence, the correct option is (3).
