CH-6 Lines and Angles


Solution

  1. (a) 125°, 125°, 35°
    Explanation: x + 55 = 180° (Sum of supplementary angles or co-interior angles)
    x = 125°
    x = y = 125° (Corresponding angles)
    z + ∠EAB = y (Exterior angle property)
    z = 125° - 90° = 35°
  2. (c) a right triangle
    Explanation: The sum of the angles of triangle  is 180 degrees.
    let the angles of triangle be a ,  b, c
    we have given that one angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the other two angles
    so we have
    c=a + b
    a + b + c = 180
    Substitute c for a +b
    c + c = 180
    2c = 180
    c = 90
    therefore the triangle is a right triangle.
  3. (b) 75°
    Explanation:
    ∠QPR = ∠PRT = 40° (Alternate interior angles)
    In △QPR
    ∠PQR + ∠QPR + ∠PRQ = 180° (Angle sum property)
    65° + 40° + x° = 180°  
    x° = 180° - 40° - 65°
    x° = 75
  4. (d) Infinity
    Explanation:


    As seen from the above image, any number of lines can be drawn through a given point. 
    Hence the answer may be given as "Infinity".

  5. (c) 50°
    Explanation:

    PQ ∥ RS
    ∠QPR = ∠SRO = 70° (Corresponding, Angle)
    NOW IN △RTO
    x + 20° = 70° (exterior angle)
    x = 70° - 20°
    x = 50°

  6. y = mx

  7. 180o

  8. Two lines are parallel when angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary i.e.,
    x+55∘=180∘⇒x=180∘−55∘ ⇒x=125∘

  9. The measure of the complementary angle x = (90o – ro)
    Where ro = given measurement
    ∴ x = (90o – 60o) = 30o

  10. ∵ AD⊥BC
    ∴∠ADB=∠ADC=900
    from △ABD
    ∠ABD + ∠BAD + ∠ADB = 1800
    ∠ABD + ∠BAD + 900=1800
    ∠ABD + ∠BAD = 900
    ∠BAD = 90° - ∠ABD ..(i)
    But ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° △ABC
    ∠B + ∠C = 900 ∵ ∠A = 900
    ∠C = 90° - ∠B ...(ii)
    From (i) and (ii)
    ∠BAD = ∠C
    ∠ BAD = ∠ACB Hence proved

  11. Given in ΔABC ∠B = ∠A + ∠C

    Proof: ∠A+∠B+∠C=180o….. (1) [Sum of three angles of a ΔABC is 180°]
    ∠A+∠C=∠B….. (2)
    From (1) and (2)
    ∠B+∠B=180o
    2∠B = 180o
    ∠B = 90o

    Hence, the triangle is a right angled triangle.

  12. Since the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of interior opposite angles.

    ∴ ∠ACD = ∠A + ∠B
    110 = ∠A + 35o
    ∠A = 110o−35o
    ∠A = 75o 
    Now, ∠A+∠B+∠C=180∘(Angle sum property)
    ∠C = 180−(∠A + ∠B)
    ∠C = 180−(75o+35o)
    ∠C = 70o


  13. OF bisects ∠BOD . . . [Given]
    ∠BOF = ∠DOF = 35o
    ∠COE = ∠DOF = 35o
    ∠EOF = 180o . . . . [A straight angle = 180o]
    ∴ ∠EOC + ∠BOC + ∠BOF = 180o
    ∴ 35o + ∠BOC + 35o = 180o
    ∴ ∠BOC = 180o – 70o = 110o
    ∠AOD = ∠BOC . . . [Vertically opposite angles]
    = 110o

  14. As AB∥CD and PQ is a transversal.
    ∴ ∠APQ=∠PQR (Alternate interior angles)
    ⇒50∘=x ...........(1)
    Also, ∠APR=∠PRD (Alternate interior angles) .
    ⇒∠APQ+∠QPR=127°
    ⇒x+y=127∘
    ⇒50∘+y=127∘. [ From (1) ]
    or ​​​, y = 127° - 50° = 77°
    Hence, x = 50° & y = 77°

  15. As ∠ABC and ∠CBE form a linear pair
    ∴∠ABC + ∠CBE = 180°..........(1)
    Given, BO is the bisector of ∠CBE. Hence, 
    ∠CBE = 2∠OBC. 
    ⇒ ∠CBE = 2∠1...............(2)

    Therefore, ∠ABC+ 2∠1 =180° [ from (1) & (2) ]
    ⇒ 2∠1 = 180° - ∠ABC
    ⇒ ∠1 = 90° - 12∠ABC........(3)
    Again, ∠ACB and ∠BCD form a linear pair
    ∴∠ACB + ∠BCD =180°.........(4)
    Given, CO is the bisector of ∠BCD.  Hence,
      ∠BCD = 2∠2............(5)
    So, ∠ACB + 2∠2 = 180° [ from (4) & (5) ]
    ⇒ 2∠ 2 = 180°- ∠ACB
    ⇒ ∠2 = 90° - 12∠ACB ...(6)

    Now in △OBC, we have
    ∠1+ ∠2 + ∠BOC = 180° (Angle sum property of triangle) ...(7)

    From (3), (6) and (7), we have
    90°- 12∠ABC + 90°- 12∠ACB + ∠BOC = 180° .
      ⇒ ∠BOC = 12(∠ABC + ∠ACB )...........(8)
    Now, in △ABC, we have
    ∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°
    or, ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180° - ∠BAC............(9)

    From (8) and (9), we have:- 
    ⇒ ∠BOC = 12(180° - ∠BAC)
    Hence, ∠BOC = 90° - 12 ∠A Proved.
