Correct Answer: 70°
Solution : Given: The angles are in the ratio of 5 : 3 : 10. Let the angles be 5$x$, 3$x$, and 10$x$. We know, 5$x$ + 3$x$ + 10$x$ = 180° ⇒ 18$x$ = 180° $\therefore x$ = 10° Largest angle = 10$x$ = 10 × 10° = 100° Smallest angle = 3$x$ = 3 × 10° = 30° Difference = 100°- 30° = 70° Hence, the correct answer is 70°.
