Question 1.
In the figure, AB || CD and ∠1 and ∠2 are in the ratio 3 : 2. Determine all angles from 1 to 8.

Solution:
AB || CD and l is transversal ∠1 : ∠2 = 3 : 2
Let ∠1 = 3x
Then ∠2 = 2x
But ∠1 + ∠2 = 180° (Linear pair)
∴ 3x + 2x = 180° ⇒ 5x = 180°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 5 }\)  = 36°
∴ ∠1 = 3x = 3 x 36° = 108°
∠2 = 2x = 2 x 36° = 72°
Now ∠1 = ∠3 and ∠2 = ∠4 (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠3 = 108° and ∠4 = 72°
∠1 = ∠5 and ∠2 = ∠6 (Corresponding angles)
∴ ∠5 = 108°, ∠6 = 72°
Similarly, ∠4 = ∠8 and
∠3 = ∠7
∴ ∠8 = 72° and ∠7 = 108°
Hence, ∠1 = 108°, ∠2= 72°
∠3 = 108°, ∠4 = 72°
∠5 = 108°, ∠6 = 72°
∠7 = 108°, ∠8 = 12°

Question 2.
In the figure, l, m and n are parallel lines intersected by transversal p at X, Y and Z respectively. Find ∠l, ∠2 and ∠3.

Solution:
l || m || n and p is then transversal which intersects then at X, Y and Z respectively ∠4 = 120°
∠2 = ∠4 (Alternate angles)
∴ ∠2 = 120°
But ∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ ∠3 + 120° = 180°
⇒ ∠3 = 180° – 120°
∴ ∠3 = 60°
But ∠l = ∠3 (Corresponding angles)
∴ ∠l = 60°
Hence ∠l = 60°, ∠2 = 120°, ∠3 = 60°

Question 3.
In the figure, if AB || CD and CD || EF, find ∠ACE.

Solution:
Given : In the figure, AB || CD and CD || EF
∠BAC = 70°, ∠CEF = 130°
∵ EF || CD
∴ ∠ECD + ∠CEF = 180° (Co-interior angles)
⇒ ∠ECD + 130° = 180°
∴ ∠ECD = 180° – 130° = 50°
∵ BA || CD
∴ ∠BAC = ∠ACD (Alternate angles)
∴ ∠ACD = 70° (∵ ∠BAC = 70°)
∵ ∠ACE = ∠ACD – ∠ECD = 70° – 50° = 20°

Question 4.
In the figure, state which lines are parallel and why.

Solution:
In the figure,
∵ ∠ACD = ∠CDE = 100°
But they are alternate angles
∴ AC || DE

Question 5.
In the figure, if l || m,n|| p and ∠1 = 85°, find ∠2.

Solution:
In the figure, l || m, n|| p and ∠1 = 85°
∵ n || p
∴ ∠1 = ∠3 (Corresponding anlges)
But ∠1 = 85°
∴ ∠3 = 85°
∵ m || 1
∠3 + ∠2 = 180° (Sum of co-interior angles)
⇒ 85° + ∠2 = 180°
⇒ ∠2 = 180° – 85° = 95°

Question 6.

Solution:

Question 7.
Two unequal angles of a parallelogram are in the ratio 2:3. Find all its angles in degrees.
Solution:
In ||gm ABCD,

∠A and ∠B are unequal
and ∠A : ∠B = 2 : 3
Let ∠A = 2x, then
∠B = 3x
But ∠A + ∠B = 180° (Co-interior angles)
∴ 2x + 3x = 180°
⇒ 5x = 180°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 5 }\)  = 36°
∴ ∠A = 2x = 2 x 36° = 72°
∠B = 3x = 3 x 36° = 108°
But ∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D (Opposite angles of a ||gm)
∴ ∠C = 72° and ∠D = 108°
Hence ∠A = 72°, ∠B = 108°, ∠C = 72°, ∠D = 108°

Question 8.
In each of the two lines is perpendicular to the same line, what kind of lines are they to each other?
Solution:
AB ⊥ line l and CD ⊥ line l

∴ ∠B = 90° and ∠D = 90°
∴ ∠B = ∠D
But there are corresponding angles
∴ AB || CD

Question 9.
In the figure, ∠1 = 60° and ∠2 = (\(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\))3 a right angle. Prove that l || m.

Solution:
In the figure, a transversal n intersects two lines l and m
∠1 = 60° and
∠2 = \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\) rd of a right angle 2
= \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\) x 90° = 60°
∴ ∠1 = ∠2
But there are corresponding angles
∴ l || m

Question 10.
In the figure, if l || m || n and ∠1 = 60°, find ∠2.

Solution:
In the figure,

l || m || n and a transversal p, intersects them at P, Q and R respectively
∠1 = 60°
∴ ∠1 = ∠3 (Corresponding angles)
∴ ∠3 = 60°
But ∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (Linear pair)
60° + ∠4 = 180° ⇒ ∠4 = 180° – 60°
∴ ∠4 = 120°
But ∠2 = ∠4 (Alternate angles)
∴ ∠2 = 120°

Question 11.
Prove that the straight lines perpendicular to the same straight line are parallel to one another.
Solution:
Given : l is a line, AB ⊥ l and CD ⊥ l

Question 12.
The opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel. If one angle of the quadrilateral is 60°, find the other angles.
Solution:
In quadrilateral ABCD, AB || DC and AD || BC and ∠A = 60°

∵ AD || BC and AB || DC
∴ ABCD is a parallelogram
∴ ∠A + ∠B = 180° (Co-interior angles)
60° + ∠B = 180°
⇒ ∠B = 180°-60°= 120°
But ∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D (Opposite angles of a ||gm)
∴ ∠C = 60° and ∠D = 120°
Hence ∠B = 120°, ∠C = 60° and ∠D = 120°

Question 13.
Two lines AB and CD intersect at O. If ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD = 270°, find the measure of ∠AOC, ∠COB, ∠BOD and ∠DOA.
Solution:
Two lines AB and CD intersect at O
and ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD = 270°
But ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD + ∠DOA = 360° (Angles at a point)

∴ 270° + ∠DOA = 360°
⇒ ∠DOA = 360° – 270° = 90°
But ∠DOA = ∠BOC (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠BOC = 90°
But ∠DOA + ∠BOD = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 90° + ∠BOD = 180°
∴ ∠BOD= 180°-90° = 90° ,
But ∠BOD = ∠AOC (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠AOC = 90°
Hence ∠AOC = 90°,
∠COB = 90°,
∠BOD = 90° and ∠DOA = 90°

Question 14.
In the figure, p is a transversal to lines m and n, ∠2 = 120° and ∠5 = 60°. Prove that m || n.

Solution:
Given : p is a transversal to the lines m and n
Forming ∠l, ∠2, ∠3, ∠4, ∠5, ∠6, ∠7 and ∠8
∠2 = 120°, and ∠5 = 60°
To prove : m || n
Proof : ∠2 + ∠3 = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 120°+ ∠3 = 180°
⇒ ∠3 = 180°- 120° = 60°
But ∠5 = 60°
∴ ∠3 = ∠5
But there are alternate angles
∴ m || n

Question 15.
In the figure, transversal l, intersects two lines m and n, ∠4 = 110° and ∠7 = 65°. Is m || n?

Solution:
A transversal l, intersects two lines m and n, forming ∠1, ∠2, ∠3, ∠4, ∠5, ∠6, ∠7 and ∠8
∠4 = 110° and ∠7 = 65°
To prove : Whether m || n or not
Proof : ∠4 = 110° and ∠7 = 65°
∠7 = ∠5 (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠5 = 65°
Now ∠4 + ∠5 = 110° + 65° = 175°
∵ Sum of co-interior angles ∠4 and ∠5 is not 180°.
∴ m is not parallel to n

Question 16.
Which pair of lines in the figure are parallel? Give reasons.

Solution:
Given : In the figure, ∠A = 115°, ∠B = 65°, ∠C = 115° and ∠D = 65°
∵ ∠A + ∠B = 115°+ 65°= 180°
But these are co-interior angles,
∴ AD || BC
Similarly, ∠A + ∠D = 115° + 65° = 180°
∴ AB || DC

Question 17.
If l, m, n are three lines such that l ||m and n ⊥ l, prove that n ⊥ m.
Solution:
Given : l, m, n are three lines such that l || m and n ⊥ l

To prove : n ⊥ m
Proof : ∵ l || m and n is the transversal.
∴ ∠l = ∠2 (Corresponding angles)
But ∠1 = 90° (∵ n⊥l)
∴ ∠2 = 90°
∴ n ⊥ m

Question 20.
In the figure, AB || CD || EF and GH || KL. Find ∠HKL.

Solution:
In the figure, AB || CD || EF and KL || HG Produce LK and GH

∵ AB || CD and HK is transversal
∴ ∠1 = 25° (Alternate angles)
∠3 = 60° (Corresponding angles)
and ∠3 = ∠4 (Corresponding angles)
= 60°
But ∠4 + ∠5 = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 60° + ∠5 = 180°
⇒ ∠5 = 180° – 60° = 120°
∴ ∠HKL = ∠1 + ∠5 = 25° + 120° = 145°

Question 21.
In the figure, show that AB || EF.

Solution:
Given : In the figure, AB || EF
∠BAC = 57°, ∠ACE = 22°
∠ECD = 35° and ∠CEF =145°
To prove : AB || EF,
Proof : ∠ECD + ∠CEF = 35° + 145°
= 180°
But these are co-interior angles
∴ EF || CD
But AB || CD
∴ AB || EF

Question 22.
In the figure, PQ || AB and PR || BC. If ∠QPR = 102°. Determine ∠ABC. Give reasons.

Solution:
In the figure, PQ || AB and PR || BC
∠QPR = 102°
Produce BA to meet PR at D

∵ PQ || AB or DB
∴ ∠QPR = ∠ADR (Corresponding angles)
∴∠ADR = 102° or ∠BDR = 102°
∵ PR || BC
∴ ∠BDR + ∠DBC = 180°
(Sum of co-interior angles) ⇒ 102° + ∠DBC = 180°
⇒ ∠DBC = 180° – 102° = 78°
⇒ ∠ABC = 78°

Question 23.
Prove that if the two arms of an angle are perpendicular to the two arms of another angle, then the angles are either equal or supplementary.
Solution:
Given : In two angles ∠ABC and ∠DEF AB ⊥ DE and BC ⊥ EF
To prove: ∠ABC + ∠DEF = 180° or ∠ABC = ∠DEF
Construction : Produce the sides DE and EF of ∠DEF, to meet the sides of ∠ABC at H and G.


Proof: In figure (i) BGEH is a quadrilateral
∠BHE = 90° and ∠BGE = 90°
But sum of angles of a quadrilateral is 360°
∴ ∠HBG + ∠HEG = 360° – (90° + 90°)
= 360° – 180°= 180°
∴ ∠ABC and ∠DEF are supplementary
In figure (if) in quadrilateral BGEH,
∠BHE = 90° and ∠HEG = 90°
∴ ∠HBG + ∠HEG = 360° – (90° + 90°)
= 360°- 180° = 180° …(i)
But ∠HEF + ∠HEG = 180° …(ii) (Linear pair)
From (i) and (ii)
∴ ∠HEF = ∠HBG
⇒ ∠DEF = ∠ABC
Hence ∠ABC and ∠DEF are equal or supplementary

Solution:
Given : In the figure, AB || CD
P is a point between AB and CD PD
and PB are joined
To prove : ∠APB + ∠CDP = ∠DPB
Construction : Through P, draw PQ || AB or CD

Proof: ∵ AB || PQ
∴ ∠ABP = BPQ …(i) (Alternate angles)
Similarly,
CD || PQ
∴ ∠CDP = ∠DPQ …(ii)
(Alternate angles)
Adding (i) and (ii)
∠ABP + ∠CDP = ∠BPQ + ∠DPQ
Hence ∠ABP + ∠CDP = ∠DPB

In the figure, AB || CD and P is any point shown in the figure. Prove that:
∠ABP + ∠BPD + ∠CDP = 360°

To prove : ∠ABP + ∠BPD + ∠CDP = 360°
Construction : Through P, draw PQ || AB and CD

Proof : ∵ AB || PQ
∴ ∠ABP+ ∠BPQ= 180° ……(i) (Sum of co-interior angles)
Similarly, CD || PQ
∴ ∠QPD + ∠CDP = 180° …(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii)
∠ABP + ∠BPQ + ∠QPD + ∠CDP
= 180°+ 180° = 360°
⇒ ∠ABP + ∠BPD + ∠CDP = 360°

Question 26.
In the figure, arms BA and BC of ∠ABC are respectively parallel to arms ED and EF of ∠DEF. Prove that ∠ABC = ∠DEF.

Solution:
Given : In ∠ABC and ∠DEF. Their arms are parallel such that BA || ED and BC || EF
To prove : ∠ABC = ∠DEF
Construction : Produce BC to meet DE at G
Proof: AB || DE
∴ ∠ABC = ∠DGH…(i) (Corresponding angles)

BC or BH || EF
∴ ∠DGH = ∠DEF (ii) (Corresponding angles)
From (i) and (ii)
∠ABC = ∠DEF

Question 27.
In the figure, arms BA and BC of ∠ABC are respectively parallel to arms ED and EF of ∠DEF. Prove that ∠ABC + ∠DEF = 180°.

Solution:
Given: In ∠ABC = ∠DEF
BA || ED and BC || EF
To prove: ∠ABC = ∠DEF = 180°
Construction : Produce BC to H intersecting ED at G

Proof: ∵ AB || ED
∴ ∠ABC = ∠EGH …(i) (Corresponding angles)
∵ BC or BH || EF
∠EGH || ∠DEF = 180° (Sum of co-interior angles)
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠DEF = 180° [From (i)]
Hence proved.
