Let the angles in degrees be α - 3δ , α - δ, α + δ, α - 3δ

Sum of the angles = 4α = 360° ⇒ α = 90°

Greatest angle = α + 3δ = 120°

Hence,

3δ = 120° - α = = 120° − 90° = 30°

⇒ δ = 10°

Hence, the angles in degrees are

90° − 30° = 60°; 90° − 10° = 80°

90° + 10° = 100°; 90° + 30° = 120°

In terms of radians, the angles are

π/3,4π/9,5π/9,2π/3.
