Answer

As we know, the sum of all the angles in a quadrilateral is 360°.

In quadrilateral ABCD, ∠A = 45°, ∠B = 55° and ∠D = 60°.

∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°

⇒ 45° + 55° + ∠C + 60° = 360°

⇒ 160° + ∠C = 360°

⇒ ∠C = 360° - 160°

⇒ ∠C = 200°

According to the definition of a concave polygon, if at least one internal angle of a polygon is more than 180°, then the polygon is concave.

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
