We have to choose which set of measures describes a quadrilateral that can not be inscribed in a circle. An inscribed quadrilateral has vertices that lie on a circle. The sum of the opposite angles of such quadrilateral is 180° (the angles are supplementary). Answer A: 103° + 77° = 180°, 69° + 111° = 180°. Answer B : 52° + 128° = 180°, 64° + 116° = 180°. Answer C: 42° + 136° = 178°, 64° + 118°=182° (not complementary). Answer D : 100° + 80° = 180°, 72° + 108° = 180°. Answer : C. 42°, 64°, 118°, 136°.
