\sf\huge\underline{\star Solution:-}


\rightarrow Ratio of two angles are 6:13.

So, let the one angle be
\sf{6x} and another be
\sf{13x.}

As we know that,

Sum of all interior angles of a quadrilateral =
\sf\pink{360°.}

So let's sum up the given angles,


\rightarrow
\sf{222°+81°+6x+13x \:=\: 360°}


\rightarrow
\sf{303+19x \:=\: 360°}


\rightarrow
\sf{19x \:=\: 360-303}


\rightarrow
\sf{19x \:=\: 57}


\rightarrow
\sf{x \:=\: (19)/(57)}


\rightarrow
\sf{x \:=\: 3}

Hence,
\sf{x \:=\: 3}

So, First angle
\sf{= \:6x\: = \:6×3 \:=}
\sf\purple{18°.}

Second angle
\sf{= \:13x\: = \:13×3 \:=}
\sf\purple{39°.}
