Equation: An equation is a statement of equality of two algebraic expressions, which involve one or more unknown quantities called the “variables”.

Example:

1. 3x + 5 = 0
2. 3x – 5 = x + 7
3. y + \(\frac{1}{5}\) = \(\frac{y}{7}\) − 3
4. x² + 9 = 25 are equations.

⇒ In the above example equations (1), (2) and (3) involve only linear polynomials where as (4) is quadratic polynomial.

⇒ Linear equation: An equation involving linear polynomials is called a linear equation.

⇒ Solution of a linear equation: A value of the variable which when substituted for the variable in the equation makes the two sides of the equation equal is called the solution of the equation.

Consider the equation 4x – 3 = 5.

⇒ If we substitute the value 2 for x, we get,

LHS = 4 x 2 – 3 = 5 = RHS

∴ x = 2 is a solution of the equation 4x – 3 = 5.

⇒ If we substitute the value 3 for x, we get, LHS = 4 x 3 – 3= 9 ≠ RHS.

⇒ So x = 3 is not a solution of equation 4x – 3 = 5

Solving an equation: Solving a linear equation means finding a value of the variable which satisfies the equation.

Algebra Chapter 8 Formation Of An Equation And Its Solutions Examples

Example 1. In the following equations, verify whether the given value of the variable is a solution of the equation.

1. \(\frac{x}{2}\) + \(\frac{x}{3}\) = 2; x = 6
2. 2(x – 3) + 5(x + 6)= 3; x = -3

Solution:

1. LHS = \(\frac{x}{2}\) + \(\frac{x}{3}\) = \(\frac{6}{2}\) + \(\frac{6}{3}\) = 3 + 2 = 5 ≠ RHS

So x = 6 is not the solution of given equation.

2. LHS, 2(x – 3) + 5(x + 6)

= 2(-3 – 3) + 5(-3 + 6) = 2x – 6 + 5 x 3 = 12 + 15 = 3 = RHS

So x= -3 is the solution of the given equation.

To solve an equation, we use the following proporties of equality:

1. Some quantity can be added to both sides of an equation without changing the equality.
2. Some quantity can be subtracted from both the sides of an equation without changing the equality.
3. Both the sides of an equation can be multiplied by the same non-zero number without changing the equality.
4. Both the sides of an equation may be divided by the same non-zero number without changing the equality.

Formation of an equation:

Example 2. Find a number such that one-third of the number is 7 more than one-fourth of the number.

Solution: Let the number be x.

According to condition,

⇒ \(\frac{x}{12}\) = 7

⇒ x = 12 x 7

⇒ x = 84

Hence the required number is 84.

Example 3. Divide 830 into two parts in such a way, that 30% of one part will be 4 more than 40% of the other.

Solution: Let 1st part be x

∴ 2nd part is (830 – x)

According to the question,

⇒ x x 30% = (830 – x) x 40% + 4

⇒ \(x \times \frac{30}{100}=(830-x) \times \frac{40}{100}+4\)

⇒ \(\frac{3 x}{10}=(830-x) \times \frac{4}{10}+4\)

⇒ \(\frac{3 x}{10}=\frac{3320-4 x+40}{10}\)

⇒ 3x = 3360 – 4x [Multiplying both side by 10]

⇒ 3x + 4x = 3360

⇒ 7x = 3360

⇒ \(x=\frac{3360}{7}\)

⇒ x = 480

∴ One part is 480 and the other part is (830 – 480) or 350.

Example 4. Find a fraction whose denominator is 2 more than the numerator and when 3 is added to the numerator and 3 is subtracted from the denominator, the fraction becomes equal to \(\frac{7}{3}\)

Solution: Let the numerator of the fraction be x.

∴ Denominator is (x + 2)

∴ fraction is \(\frac{x}{x+2}\)

According to the conditions,

⇒ 7x – 3x = 9 + 7

⇒ 4x = 16

⇒ x = \(\frac{16}{4}\) = 4

∴ The required fraction is \(\frac{4}{4+2} \text { or } \frac{4}{6}\)

Example 5. A number consists of two digits whose sum is 9. If 27 is added to the number, the digits are interchanged. Find the number.

Solution: Let the unit’s digit be x.

Then ten’s digit = (9 – x)

∴ Number = 10(9 – x) + x = 90 – 10x + x = 90 – 9x

If the digits are interchanged then the number will be 10x + (9 − x) = 9x + 9

According to the condition,

9x + 9 = (90 – 9x)+ 27

= 9x + 9x = 90 + 27 – 9

⇒ 18x = 108

⇒ x = \(\frac{108}{18}\) = 6

∴ The required number is 90 – 9 x 6 = 90 – 54 = 36

Example 6. A father is thrice as old as his son. Four years back the father was 4 times as old his son. Find their present ages.

Solution: Let the present age of son is x years.

Father’s age is 3x years.

Four years ago son age was (x-4) years and father age was (3x – 4) years.

According to condition,

4(x – 4) = 3x – 4

⇒ 4x – 16 = 3x – 4

⇒ 4x – 3x = 16 – 4

⇒ x = 12

∴ The present age of son is 12 years and father’s age is (12 x 3) years or 36 years.

Example 7. Ramesh went to the school at a speed of 4 km/hr and returned at 3 km/hr. If he took 30 minutes more in returning, find the distance of the school from his home.

Solution: Let the distance between the school and home is x km.

Time taken in going x km from home to school is \(\frac{x}{4}\) hr.

Time taken in going x km from school to home is \(\frac{x}{3}\) hr.

According to condition,

⇒ \(\frac{4 x-3 x}{12}=\frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow x=\frac{12}{2}=6\)

∴ The distance of the school from his home is 6 km.

Example 8. The length of a rectangle is 4 cm more than its breadth. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 cm, find its area.

Solution: Let the breadth of the rectangle is x cm.

The length is (x + 4) cm.

The perimeter is 2 (x + 4 + x) cm = 2 (2x + 4) cm.

According to question,

2(2x + 4) = 36

⇒ 4x + 8 = 36

⇒ 4x = 36 – 8 = 28

⇒ x = \(\frac{28}{4}\) = 7

∴ The breadth is 7 cm and length is (7 + 4) cm or 11 cm

Area = (11 x 7) cm² = 77 cm².

1. If average of (x + 3) and (x – 7) is 5, then the value of x is

1. 5

The value of x is 2. 7

2. What is the equation?

1. x + 2 = 3
2. (x + 2)² = x² + 4x + 4
3. x + 2

3. In the expression px + qy + r = 0, if x = 0 then the value of y is

1. \(\frac{r}{q}\)
2. \(\frac{r}{p}\)
3. 0
4. –\(\frac{r}{q}\)

Solution: px + qy + r = 0

∴ p x 0 + qy + r = 0

⇒ qy = -r ⇒ y = –\(\frac{r}{q}\)

∴ The correct answer is 4. –\(\frac{r}{q}\)

The value of y is –\(\frac{r}{q}\)

Solution: The statement is false.

2. The root of the equation 2x + 5 = 7x – 45 is 10.

Solution: 2x + 5 = 7x – 45

⇒ 2x – 7x = 45 – 5

⇒ -5x = – 50

⇒ 5x = 50

⇒ x = 10

∴ The statement is true.

3. If a(x + a) = b(x + b), then x = -(a + b)

Solution: a(x + a) = b(x + b)

⇒ ax + a² = bx + b²

⇒ ax – bx = b² – a²

⇒ x(a – b) = -(a² – b²)

⇒ x = \(-\frac{(a+b)(a-b)}{(a-b)}\)

⇒ x = −(a + b)

3. Dividing a line segment into three or five equal parts.

⇔ Construction of Triangles measurements.

Example 1. Draw a triangle, whose two angles are 45° and 30° and length of the opposite side of 30° angle is 6 cm.

Solution:

Step 1.

⇔ At first, I draw a line segment of length 6 cm with a scale.

Read and Learn More WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Maths

⇒ Then I draw two angles of measurement 45° and 30° with pencil compass.

Step 2.

⇒ The line segment BC of length 6 cm is cut off from the ray BX.

Step 3.

⇒ Then I draw two angles ∠YBC and ∠ZCX of measurements 45° each at B and C respectively.

Step 4.

⇒ Then I draw an angle ∠PCZ of measurement 30° with the help of pencil compass at C on the same side of the line segment CZ where BY lies.

PC and BY meet at point A.

∴ ΔABC is the required triangle where BC = 6 cm.

⇒ ∠ABC = 45° ∠BAC = ∠ACZ = 30°

Proof: ∠ABC= ∠ZCX= 45° [By construction] [Corresponding angles are equal] BC is transversal.

∴ BA || CZ

⇒ Again BA || CZ and AC is transversal.

∴ ∠BAC = ∠ACZ [Alternate angles]= 30°

∴ In ΔABC, ABC = 45° and ∠BAC = 30° and the opposite sides of ∠BAC is BC = 5 cm.

Example 2. Draw a triangle length of whose two sides are 5 cm, 3.5 cm and the measurement of the angle opposite to the side of length 3.5 cm is 40°.

Solution:

Step 1.

⇒ I draw two line segments of lengths 5 cm and 3.5 cm and an angle of measurement 40° with the help of protractor.

Step 2.

⇒ I draw a ray BX and I draw an angle ∠XBY of measurement 40° with the compass at B on BX.

Step 3.

⇒ I cut off a line segment AB of length 5 cm from the ray BX.

Step 4. Taking A as center I draw an arc of radius 3.5 cm which intersects the rays BX at C and D.

⇒ Joining the points A, C and A, D by a scale I get the two triangles ΔABC and ΔABD.

∴ ΔABC is a required triangle, whose AB = 5 cm, AC = 3.5 cm and ∠ABC= 40° which is opposite to the side AC.

⇒ ΔABD is also a required triangle whose AB = 5 cm, AD = 3.5 and ABD = 40° which is opposite to the side AD.

⇒ [Sometimes we are getting one triangle, sometimes two triangle and sometimes no triangle.]

Case 1. If a = b we will unable to construct one triangle.

Case 2. If h < b < a we will able to draw two triangles.

Case 3. If a < b we will able to draw one triangle.

Case 4. b = h, then we will able to draw one triangle, B.

⇔ Construction of Parallel lines:

Example 3. Draw a straight line PQ and let consider a point R outside the line segment PQ. Draw a line, parallel to the line PQ that passes through R by a scale and a compass.

Solution:

Method 1.

Step 1.

⇒ I draw a straight line PQ and take a point R outside the line PQ.

Step 2.

⇒ Now I take a point S on the straight line PQ and I join R, S by a scale.

As a result an angle ∠RSQ is formed.

Step 3.

⇒ Now with a scale and compass we draw ∠TRS at R equal to opposite side of ∠RSQ and it is in the opposite side of ∠RSQ.

⇒ I join T and R by a scale and producing the line TR on both the sides we get a straight line AB.

Proof: ∠ARS = ∠RSQ but they are alternate angles.

∴ AB || PQ.

∴ We draw a straight line AB parallel to the straight line PQ passing through the point R which is outside the line PQ.

Method 2.

Step 1.

⇒ I take a point S on the straight line PQ.

Step 2.

⇒ I join two points R and S by a scale and produced the line segment SR to M.

As a result, ∠MSQ is formed.

Step 3.

⇒ I draw an angle ∠MRT at R on the line segment RM equal to the ∠RSQ and ∠MRT is drawn on the same side of the line segment MS where ∠RSQ lies.

Step 4.

⇒ Now I produce the line segment TR on both side and the straight line AB is form.

∴ Proof: ∠MRB = ∠MSQ.

⇒ But they are corresponding angles.

∴ AB || PQ.

∴ AB is the required straight line through R which is parallel to line PQ.

Method 3.

Step 1.

⇒ I draw a straight line PQ and take a point R outside the straight line PQ.

Step 2.

⇒ Let I take a point S on the straight line PQ.

⇒ I join R, S and I got a line segment RS.

Step 3.

⇒ I cut off a line segment ST from ray SQ.

Step 4.

⇒ Then taking R as the center and the length of the line segment ST as radius; I draw an arc with a compass.

Step 5.

⇒ Then taking T as the center and the length of the line segment RS as radius, I draw a another arc by a compass which intersects the previous arc at M.

Step 6.

⇒ I join R, M and then produce RM on both side where AB straight line is form.

Proof: I join S, M and M, T.

In ΔRMS and ΔMTS, RM = ST, RS = MT and SM is common side.

∴ ΔRMS ≅ ΔMTS [By SSS congruency]

∴ ∠RMS = ∠MST [Corresponding angles of congruent triangles]

But they are alternate angle.

∴ RM || ST i.e. AB || PQ.]

∴ I got the straight line AB through R which is parallel to PQ.

Dividing a line segment into three or five equal parts.

Example 4. Draw a straight line segment PQ of length 12 cm and divided the line segment PQ in five equal parts by scale and compass. Verify by scale which each part of the segment is 2.4 cm or not.

Solution:

Step 1.

⇒ We draw a line segment PQ ∅ of length 10 cm.

Step 2.

⇒ Then I cut off the line segment PQ of length 10 cm from the ray PX.

Step 3.

⇒ I draw an angle ∠XPY at P on PX.

Step 4.

⇒ I draw ∠PQR equal to ∠YPQ on the opposite side of the line segment PQ, such that it lies below ∠QPY.

Step 5.

⇒ Then I cut four equal line segments PA₁, A₁B₁, B₁C₁ and C₁D₁ from PY by pencil compass.

⇒ Again I cut another four equal line segments QD₂, D₂C₂, C₂B₂ and B₂A₂ from QZ by pencil compass with same radius.

⇒ I join (A₁, A₂); (B₁, B₂); (C₁, C₂) and (D₁, D₂) by scale.

⇒ The line segment A₁A₂, B₁B₂, C₁C₂ and D₁D₂ intersects PQ at points A, B, C and D respectively.

⇒ So the line segment PQ is divided at A, B, C, and D with equal length.

⇒ So PA = AB = BC = CD = DQ = 2.4 cm.

Geometry Chapter 6 Verification Of The Relation Between The Angles And Sides Of A Triangle Theorems

Theorem 1.

⇒ If one side of a triangle is produced then one exterior angle is formed, the measurement of this exterior angle is sum of the measurement of two interior opposite angles.

Given: ABC is a triangle and BC is produced to D. As a result one exterior angle ∠ACD and two interior opposite angles ∠BAC and ∠ABC are produced.

Required to prove: ∠ACD = ∠BAC + ∠ABC.

Construction: CE is drawn parallel to AB.

BA | | CE (by construction) and AC is, transversal.

∴ ∠ACE = ∠BAC [alternate angles]

Again BA || CA and BD is transversal.

∴ ∠ECD = ∠ABC [Corresponding angles]

∠ACE + ∠ECD = ∠BAC + ∠ABC i.e. ∠ACD = ∠BAC + ∠ABC (Proved)

Theorem 2.

⇒ The sum of the measurement of three angles of a triangle is two right angles.

Given: ΔABC is any triangle.

Required to prove: The sum of measurement of three angles of ΔABC is 2 right angles.

i.e. ∠BAC+ ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°

Construction: A straight line XY is drawn through A, parallel to BC.

Proof: XY || BC [By construction] and AB is transversal

∴ ∠ABC = ∠XAB [alternate angles]

Again, XY || BC and AC is transversal.

∴ ∠ACB = ∠CAY [alternate angles]

∠ABC +∠ACB = ∠XAB + ∠CAY

∴ ∠ABC + ∠ACB + ∠BAC = ∠XAB + ∠BAC + ∠CAY [By adding BAC on both sides]

ie. ∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = ∠XAY

∴ ∠BAC+ ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180° [one straight angle] (Proved)

Theorem 3.

⇒ If two sides of a triangle are unequal in length the measurement of the angle opposite to the greater side is greater than the measurement of the angle opposite to the smaller side.

Given: In ΔABC, AB > AC.

Required to prove: ∠ACB > ∠ABC

Construction: I cut off the line segment AD from the side AB equal of the side AC.

I join two point C and D.

Proof: In ΔADC, AD = AC [By construction]

∴ ∠ADC = ∠ACD

In ΔBCD, the exterior ∠ADC = ∠DBC +∠DCB

∴ ∠ADC > ∠DBC

∴ ∠ACD > ∠DBC ∠ACD + ∠DCB > ∠DBC

i.e. ∠ACB > ∠ABC (Proved).

Theorem 4.

⇒ If the measurement of two angles of a triangle are unequal,, then the length of opposite side of the greater angle is greater than the length of the opposite side of the smaller angle.

Given: In ΔABC, ∠ABC > ∠ACB.

Required to prove: AC > AB

Prove: If AC not equal to greater than AB then either

1. AC = AB or
2. AC = AB

If AC < AB then ∠ABC < ∠ACB. It cannot be true.

Because it is given ∠ABC > ∠ACB.

Again, if AC = AB then ∠ABC= ∠ACB

It cannot be true because it is given ∠ABC > ∠ACB.

∴ AC > AB (Proved)

Geometry Chapter 6 Verification Of The Relation Between The Angles And Sides Of A Triangle Examples

Example 1. In the adjacent, find the value of x.

Solution: I joined A, C and AC is produced to T.

In ΔABC,

Exterior ∠BCT = ∠BAC+ ∠ABC

In ΔACD,

Exterior ∠BCT = ∠BAC + ∠ABC

In ΔACD,

Exterior ∠DCT = ∠DAC + ∠ADC

∠BCT + ∠DCT = (∠BAC+ ∠DAC) + ∠ABC + ∠ADC

i.e. ∠BCD = ∠BAD + ∠ABC + ∠ADC

x = 72° + 45° + 30°

⇒ x = 147°.

The value of x = 147°.

Example 2. In the adjacent find the value of ∠A + ∠B + ∠C+ ∠D + ∠E + ∠F.

Solution: (∠A + ∠B) + (∠C + ∠D) + (∠E + ∠F)

= ∠BOD + ∠DOF + ∠FOB = -360°

The value of ∠A + ∠B + ∠C+ ∠D + ∠E + ∠F is -360°

Example 3. In ΔABC, BC is produced to D. If ∠ACD = 126° and ∠B = \(\frac{3}{4}\) ∠A then find the value of ∠A.

Solution:

In ΔABC

∠A + ∠B = exterior ∠ACD

∠A + \(\frac{3}{4}\)∠A = 126°

⇒ \(\frac{7 \angle A}{4}\) = 126°

⇒ ∠A = \(\frac{4}{7}\) x 126° = 4 x 18° = 72°

The value of ∠A = 72°

Example 4. If the largest angle of a triangle is an acute angle then find the limit of that angle.

Solution: In ΔABC, ∠A is largest.

As ∠A is acute angle.

∴ ∠A < 90°.

Again ∠A is largest.

∴ ∠A > ∠B and ∠A > ∠C

∴ ∠A + ∠A > ∠B + ∠C

⇒ 2∠A > ∠B + ∠C

⇒ 2∠A + ∠A > ∠A + ∠B + ∠C

⇒ 3∠A > 180°

⇒ ∠A > \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{3}\)

⇒ ∠A > 60°

⇒ 60° < ∠A

∴ 60° < ∠A < 90°.

The limit of that angle  60° < ∠A < 90°.

Example 5. If O is an interior point of AABC, then find the relation between ∠BOC and ∠BAC.

Solution:

I join A, O, and AO is extended to T.

In ΔAOB, the exterior ∠BOT = ∠BAO + ∠ABO

∴ ∠BOT > ∠BAO

Similarly, In ΔAOC, ∠COT > ∠CAO

∴ ∠BOT + ∠COT > ∠BAO + ∠CAO

i.e. ∠BOC > ∠BAC.

This is the relation.

The relation between ∠BOC and ∠BAC is  ∠BOC > ∠BAC.

Example 6. Find the sum of measurement of all angles of a quadrilateral.

Solution:

In quadrilateral ABCD, I join A and C.

In ΔABC,

∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°

In ΔADC, ∠DAC+ ∠ADC + ∠ACD = 180°

(∠BAC + ∠DAC) + ∠ABC + ∠ADC + (∠ACB + ∠ACD) = 180° + 180°

∴ ∠BAD + ∠ABC + ∠ADC + ∠BCD = 360°

The sum of measurement of all angles of a quadrilateral = 360°

Example 7. In ΔABC, the internal bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACB intersect at O, If ∠BOC = 105°, then find the value of ∠BAC.

Solution:

In ΔABC, BO, and CO are the bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACB respectively.

∴ ∠OBC = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ABC and ∠OCB =\(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ACB

∠OBC + ∠OCB = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(∠ABC + ∠ACB)

180° – ∠BOC = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(180° – ∠BAC)

180° – 105° = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC

75° = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC = 90° – 75° = 15°

⇒ ∠BAC = 15° x 2 = 30°

The value of ∠BAC = 30°

Example 8. In ΔPQR, the internal bisector of ∠PQR and the external bisector of ∠PRQ intersect at T. If ∠QPR = 40° then find the value of ∠QTR.

Solution:

In ΔPQR,

⇒ ∠QTR + ∠TQR = exterior ∠TRS

⇒ ∠QTR = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠PRS –\(\frac{1}{2}\)∠PQR

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\) (∠QPR + ∠PQR) – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠PQR

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠QPR + \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠PQR – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠QPR = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 40° = 20°

The value of ∠QTR = 20°

Example 9. In ΔABC, AB = AC and ∠ABC = 2∠BAC. The bisector of ∠ABC meets AC at D. Find the measurement of the angles of the triangle BCD.

Solution:

In ΔABC, AB = AC

∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB

∠ABC + ∠ACB + ∠BAC = 180°

∠ABC + ∠ABC + ∠BAC = 180°

∴ 2∠BAC + 2∠BAC + ∠BAC = 180°

⇒ 5∠BAC = 180°

⇒ ∠BAC = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{5}=36^{\circ}\)

∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB = 2 x 36° = 72°

∠DBC = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ABC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 72° = 36°

In ΔBDC, ∠BDC + ∠DBC + ∠DCB = 180°

∠BDC + 36° + 72° 180°

∠BDC = 180° – 108° = 72°

∴ ∠DBC = 36°, ∠BDC = 72° and ∠DCB = 72°

The measurement of the angles of the triangle BCD = 72°

Example 10. ΔPQR, If ∠P = 80° and ∠Q= 70°, then find the relation between PQ and QR.

Solution:

In ΔPQR, ∠P = 80°, ∠Q = 70°

∴ ∠R = 180° – (80° + 70°) = 30°

As ∠P > ∠R

∴ QR > PQ (This the relation)

The relation between PQ and QR is QR > PQ

Example 11. The hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is the greatest one – Explain.

Solution:

In ΔABC, ∠ABC = 90°

∴ AC is the hypotenuse.

∠A and ∠C each are acute angles.

∴ ∠ABC > ∠A and ∠ABC > ∠C

As ∠ABC > ∠A, ∴ AC > BC

As ∠ABC > ∠C  ∴ AC > AB

∴ AC is the largest side.

Example 12. If the ratio of measurement of angles of a triangle is 4: 5: 9; then write the nature of the triangle.

Solution: Let the measurement of three angles are 4x°, 5x° and 9x°

4x° +5x° + 9x° = 180°

⇒ 18x° = 180°

⇒ x° = 10°

The angles are 4 x 10° or 40°, 5 x 10° or 50° and 9 x 10° or 90°.

∴ The triangle is a right-angled triangle.

Example 13. ΔABC, if the bisector of ∠BAC and a parallel line of AB be drawn through P, the midpoint of AC intersect each other at a point E. Prove that ∠AEC = 90°.

Solution:

Given: In ΔABC, AE is the bisector of ∠BAC and D is the midpoint of AC.

DE || AB, I join E, C.

RTP:  ∠AEC = 90°

Proof: AB || DE (Given) and AE is transversal.

∴ ∠BAE = ∠AED [Alternate angles]

Again ∠BAE= ∠DAE [AE is bisector of ∠BAC]

∴ ∠AED = ∠DAE  ∴AD = DE

Again AD = DC [given]

∴ DE = DC,  ∴ ∠DEC = ∠DCE

∠AED + ∠DEC = ∠DAE + ∠DCE

i.e. ∠AEC = ∠CAE + ∠ACE

In ΔAEC, ∠AEC + ∠CAE + ∠ACE = 180°

∠AEC + ∠AEC = 180°

2∠AEC = 180°

⇒ ∠AEC = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{2}\)

⇒ ∠AEC = 90° (Proved).

Example 14 The external bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACB of ΔABC meet at O. Prove that ∠BOC = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC

Solution: Given AB and AC are extended respectively.

BO and CO are the external bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACB of ΔABC.

RTP: ∠BOC = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC

Proof: BO and CO are the bisectors of ∠OBC

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠EBC and ∠OCB = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BCF

∠OBC + ∠OCB = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠EBC + \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BCF

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(180° – ∠ABC) + \(\frac{1}{2}\)(180° – ∠ACB)

= 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ABC + 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ACB = 180° –\(\frac{1}{2}\) (∠ABC + ∠ACB)

= 180° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)(180° – ∠BAC) = 180° – 90° + \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC

= 90° + \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC

In ΔBOC,

∠BOC + ∠OBC + ∠OCB = 180°

∠BOC + 90° + \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC = 180°

⇒ ∠BOC = 180°- 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC

⇒ ∠BOC = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BAC (Proved)

Example 15. In ΔABC, AD is the bisector of the angle ∠BAC and AP ⊥ BC; if AB > AC then prove that ∠PAD = \(\frac{1}{2}\) (∠ACB – ∠ABC)

Solution:

Given: In ΔABC, AD is the bisector of ∠BAC and AP ⊥ BC.

RTP: ∠PAD =\(\frac{1}{2}\) (∠ACB – ∠ABC)

Proof: AP ⊥ BC,  ∴  ∠APB = ∠APC = 90°

In ΔABP, ∠APB = 90°,

∴ ∠BAP + ∠ABP = 90°

In ΔAPC, ∠APC = 90°,

∴ ∠PAC + ∠ACP = 90°

∴ ∠PAC + ∠ACP = 90°

∴ ∠PAC + ∠ACP = ∠BAP + ∠ABP

⇒ ∠ACP – ∠ABP = ∠BAP – ∠PAC

= ∠BAD + ∠PAD – ∠PAD

= ∠CAD + ∠PAD – ∠PAC  [∠BAD = ∠CAD]

= (∠CAD – ∠PAC) + ∠PAD = ∠PAD + ∠PAD = 2∠PAD

⇒ ∠PAD = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(ACP – ABP)

∴ ∠PAD = \(\frac{1}{2}\) (∠ACB + ∠ABC)(Proved)

Example 16. In ΔABC, the bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACB meet at O. If AB > AC then prove that OB > OC.

Solution:

Given: In ΔABC, AB > AC; OB and OC are the bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACB respectively.

RTP: OB > OC

Proof: AB > AC

∴ ∠ACB > ∠ABC = ∠ACB > \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ABC

∴ ∠OCB > ∠OBC

∴ OB > OC (Proved)

Example 17. AB is the greatest side and DC is the smallest side. Prove that ∠BCD > ∠BAD.

Solution:

Given: In quadrilateral ABCD, AB and DC are the greatest and smallest side respectively.

RTP: ∠BCD > ∠BAD

Construction: I join A, C.

Proof: In ΔABC, AB > BC [As AB is greatest side]

∴ ∠ACB > ∠BAC

In ΔACD, AD > DC  [DC is the smallest side]

∴ ∠ACD > ∠CAD    ∠ACB + ∠ACD > ∠BAC + ∠CAD

i.e. ∠BCD > ∠BAD (Proved)

Example 18. Choose the Correction Answer:

1. In ΔABC, AB = AC, BC is produced to D. If ∠ACD = 112° then the value of ∠BAC is

1. 44°
2. 68°
3. 22°
4. 34°

Solution:

∠ACD + ∠ACB = 180°

112° + ∠ACB = 180°

or, ∠ACB= 180° – 112° = 68°

In ΔABC, AB = AC, ∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB = 68°

In ΔABC, exterior ∠ACD = ∠BAC + ∠ABC

112° = ∠BAC + 68°

⇒ ∠BAC = 112° – 68° = 44°

∴ So the correct answer is 1. 44°

The value of ∠BAC is 44°

2. In ΔABC, If ∠A = 70° and ∠B = 60°, then the relation between AB and BC is

1. AB = BC
2. AB > BC
3. AB < BC
4. None of these

Solution:

In ΔABC, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

70° + 60° + ∠C = 180°

⇒ ∠C = 180° – 130° = 50°

The relation between AB and BC is

As, ∠A > ∠C

∴ BC > AB ⇒ AB > BC

∴ So the correct answer is 3. AB < BC

The relation between AB and BC is  AB < BC

3. If the measurement of an angle of a triangle is equal to sum of the other two angles, then the triangle becomes

1. Acute angled triangle
2. Obtuse angled triangle
3. Equilateral triangle
4. Right-angled triangle

Solution: In ΔABC, ∠A = ∠B + ∠C

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

∠A + ∠A = 180°

⇒ 2∠A = 180°

⇒ ∠A = 90°

The triangle is right angled triangle.

∴ So the correct answer is 4. Right angled triangle

Example 19. Write ‘True’ or ‘False’:

1. If the ratio of measurements of three angles of a triangle is 1: 2: 3, then the triangle becomes right angled triangle.

Solution: Let the angles are x°, 2x°, and 3x°.

x + 2x + 3x = 180

⇒ 6x = 180 ⇒ x = 30.

∴ The angles are 30°, 30° x 2 or 60° and 30° x 3 or 90°.

∴ The triangle is right angled triangle.

∴ So the statement is true.

2. If PQ || TS, then the value of x is 80°.

Solution: ∠QTS = ∠PQT [Alternate angle] = 55°

i.e. ∠RTS = 55°

∠TRS + ∠RTS + ∠RST = 180°

x + 55° + 40° = 180°

⇒ x = 180° – 95° = 85°

∴ So the statement is false.

Example 20. Fill in the blanks:

1. In obtuse angled triangle opposite side of _______ is largest.

Answer: Obtuse angle.

Solution: Let, In ΔABC, ∠B is obtuse angle.

∴ ∠A and ∠C are both acute angle.

∴ ∠B > ∠A and ∠B > ∠C

As ∠B > ∠C then AC > AB

∴ AC is largest.

∴ The obtuse angled triangle opposite side of obtuse angle is largest.

2. In ΔABC, AB = AC; BC is produced to D. If ∠ACD = 105° then the value of ∠BAC

Solution:

In, ΔABC, ∠ACD = 105°

∠ACB = 180° – ∠ACD = 180° – 105° = 75°

AB = AC

∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB = 75°

∠BAC + ∠ABC = Exterior ∠ACD

∠BAC + 75° = 105°

⇒ ∠BAC = 105° – 75° = 30°.

The value of ∠BAC = 30°.

∴ ∠ADB > ∠BAD

∴ AB > BD [The opposite side of bigger angle is greater than the opposite side of smaller angle]

⇔ In ΔADC, ∠ADC is right angle and ∠CAD is an acute angle.

∴ ∠ADC > ∠CAD

Construction: Let Q is a point on the straight line AB other than the point P.

I join O and Q.

Proof: In ΔPOQ, ∠OPQ = 90°  [OP ⊥ AB]

∠OPQ > ∠OQP [∠OQP is an acute angle]

∴ OQ > OP [The length of opposite side of a greater angle is greater than the side opposite to smaller angle]

Q is any point on the straight line AB other than P.

∴ For any point Q on AB, OP < OQ.

∴ OP is the smallest. (Proved)

Example 2. Find the sum of measurement of all the interior angles of the following polygons:

1. Octagon
2. Decagon
3. Polygon with 12 sides
4. Polygon with 15 sides.

Solution:

1. The sum of measurement of all the interior angles of a octagon is 2(8-2) × 90° = 2 x 6 x 90° = 1080°.
2. Sum of measurement of all the interior angles of a decagon is 2 (10-2) × 90° = 2 x 8 x 90° = 1440°
3. Sum of measurement of all the interior angles of polygon with sides 12 is 2(12-2) × 90° = 2 x 10 x 90° = 1800°
4. Sum of measurement of all the interior angles of polygon with side 15 is 2(15-2) × 90° = 2 x 13 x 90° = 2340°

Example 3. Find the measurement of each interior and exterior angle of the following regular polygon.

1. Pentagon
2. Hexagon
3. Polygon with side 25

Solution:

1. The measurement of each interior angle of pentagon is

Measurement of each exterior angle of pentagon is \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{5}=72^{\circ}\)

2. The measurement of each interior angle of hexagon is

\(\frac{2(6-2)}{6} \times 90^{\circ}\) = \(\frac{2 \times 4 \times 90^{\circ}}{6}\) =120°

And each exterior angle is \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{6}=60^{\circ}\)

3. The measurement of each interior angle of polygon with 25 side is

And each exterior angle is \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{25}=14.4^{\circ}\)

Example 4. If the measurement of three angles of a quadrilateral are 100°, 62°, and 85° respectively, then find the measurement of the fourth angle.

Solution: The sum of the measurement of three angle is (100° + 62° + 85°) = 247°

⇔ The sum of measurement of all interior angles of a quadrilateral is 2(4 – 2) x 90° =360°

⇔ So the measurement of fourth angle is (360° – 247°) = 113°

Example 5. If sum of measurement of all interior angles of a polygon is 1440°, then find number of sides of the polygon.

Solution: Let the number of sides of the polygon is n.

∴ Sum of measurement of all interior angles is (2n – 4) x 90°

⇔ According to the question,

(2n – 4) x 90° = 1440°

⇒ 2n – 4 = \(\frac{1440}{90}\) = 16

⇒ 2n = 16+ 4 = 20

⇒ n = \(\frac{20}{2}\) = 10

∴ The number of sides of the polygon is 10.

Example 6. Find whether the following measurement are possible or not for exterior angle of a regular polygon.

1. 15°
2. 28°

Solution:

1. Exterior angle of the regular polygon is 15°.

∴ The number of sides = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{15^{\circ}}\) = 24

Hence 15° is the measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon of sides 24.

2. Each exterior angle is 28°.

∴ The number of sides = \(\frac{360}{28}=\frac{90}{7}=12 \frac{6}{7}\)

⇔ But the number of sides cannot be a fraction.

⇔ Hence 28° cannot be the measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon.

Example 7. Find whether the following measurement of each interior angle is possible for a regular polygon.

1. 144°
2. 155°

Solution:

1. The measurement of each interior angle of a regular polygon is 144°.

∴ The measurement of each exterior angle is (180° – 144°) or 36°.

∴ The number of sides = \(\frac{360}{36}\) = 10

So 144° is the measure of interior angle of a regular polygon of sides 10.

2. Each interior angle is 155°.

∴ Each exterior angle is (180° – 155°) or 25°.

The number of sides = \(\frac{360}{25}\) = \(\frac{72}{5}\) = 14\(\frac{2}{5}\) which is fraction.

∴ 155° cannot be the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon.

Example 8. Measurement of each of 4 interior angle is 150° and measurement of each of the other interior angle of a polygon is 100°. Find the number of sides of the polygon.

Solution: Let the number of sides be n.

⇒ So the number of interior angles becomes n.

⇒ Sum of measurement of interior angles of n sides is 2 (n – 2) x 90°.

⇒ Sum of measurement of first 4 interior angles is 4 x 150° or 600°.

⇒ Sum of measurement of rest (n – 4) interior angles is (n – 4) x 100°.

According to question,

= 2(n-2) x 90° = 600° + (n-4) x 100°

⇒ 2(n-2) x 9 = 60 + (n-4) × 10

⇒ 18n – 36 = 60 + 10n – 40

⇒ 18n – 10n = 20 + 36

⇒ 8n = 56 ⇒ n = 7

∴ The number of sides of the polygon is 7.

Example 9. In the adjacent ABCDE is a regular pentagon. Find the value of ∠CAD.

Solution: The measurement of each interior angle of a regular pentagon is

∴ \(\angle \mathrm{ABC}=\angle \mathrm{BAE}=\angle \mathrm{AED}=108^{\circ}\)

∴ \(\angle \mathrm{BAC}=\angle \mathrm{ACl}\)

∠BAC = \(\frac{72^{\circ}}{2}=36^{\circ}\)

Similarly ∠DAE = 36°

⇒ ∠BAC + ∠CAD + ∠DAE= 108°

⇒ 36° + ∠CAD + 36° = 108°

⇒ ∠CAD = 108° – 72° = 36°

The value of ∠CAD = 36°

Example 10. In the adjacent, the shortest distance of point P from the straight line AB is 3 cm and length of QR is 4 cm. Find the length of PR.

Solution: The shortest distance of point P from the straight line AB is PQ.

∴ PQ ⊥ AB.

∴ ∠PQR = 90°

PQ = 3cm, QR = 4cm

∴ In ΔPQR,

⇒ PR² = PQ² + QR² [By applying pythagorus A theorem]

= (3²+4²) sq.cm. = 25 sq.cm.

PR = √25 cm = 5 cm.

∴ The length of PR is 5 cm.

Proof: In ΔAOB, OA + OB > AB…… (1)

[The sum of lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side]

⇒ In ΔBOC, OB + OC > BC…….(2)

⇒ ΔCOD, OC + OD > CD…….(3)

⇒ In ΔAOD, OD + OA > DA…….(4)

∴ (1) + (2) + (3) + (4), we get

⇒ 2(OA + OC + OB + OD) = AB + BC + CD + DA

∴ 2(AC+ BD) = AB + BC + CD + DA

⇒ AC + BD = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(AB + BC + CD + DA) (Proved)

Example 12. Prove that the perimeter of a triangle is more than the sum of length of the medians.

Solution: Given: In ΔABC, AD, BE and CF are three medians.

RTP: AB+ BC + CA > AD + BE + CF

Construction: I produced the line segment AD to P in such a way that AD = DP.

I join P, C.

Proof: In ΔABD and ΔPCD,

⇒ BD = CD (Given)

⇒ ∠ADB = ∠PDC [Vertically opposite angles]

and AD = DP [By construction]

∴ ΔABD ≅ ΔPCD [By SAS congruency]

∴ AB = CP (Corresponding sides]

⇒ In ΔAPC, AC + CP > AP AC + AB > AD + DP

∴ AC + AB > AD + AD

∴ AB + AC > 2AD……..(2)

⇒ Similarly, AB + BC > 2BE…..(2)

and BC + AC > 2CF…..(3)

(1) + (2) + (3) we get

2(AB + BC + AC) > 2(AD + BE + CF)

⇒ AB + BC + CA > AD + BE + CF (Proved)

Example 13. In a quadrilateral ABCD, AB = AD and BC = DC, and DP is the smallest distance drawn from D on AC. Prove that B, P, and D are collinear.

Solution:

Given: In a quadrilateral ABCD, AB = AD, BC = DC and DP is the smallest distance drawn from D on AC.

I Join B, P.

RTP: B, P, and D are collinear.

Proof: As DP is the shortest distance.

∴ DP ⊥ AC.

∴ ∠APD = ∠CPD = 90°

In ΔABC and ΔADC, AB = AD (given)

BC = DC (given) and AC is common side.

∴ ΔABC ≅ ΔADC [By SSS congruency]

∴ ∠BAC = ∠DAC [Corresponding angles]

∴ i.e. ∠BAP = ∠DAP

In ΔAPB and ΔADP,

⇒ AB = AD ΔBAP = ΔDAP and AP is common side.

∴ ΔAPB ≅ ΔADP [By SAS congruency]

∴ ∠APB + ∠APD  ∠APB = 90°

∠APB + ∠APD = 90° + 90° = 180°

∴ BP and DP lies in straight line.

∴ B, P, D are collinear. (Proved)

Example 14. O is any point inside the ΔABC. Prove that AB + BC + CA > OA + OB + OC.

Solution:

Given: O is any point inside the ΔABC.

I join OA; OB and OC.

RTP: AB+ BC + CA > OA + OB + OC

Construction: BO is produced which meets AC at E.

Proof: In ΔCOE, OE + EC > OC

In ΔABE, AB + AE > BE

∴ OE+ EC + AB+ AE > OC+ BE

OE + (EC+ AE) + AB > OC + OB + OE

∴  OE + AC+ AB > OB + OC + OE

∴ AB + AC > OB + OC……. (1) [Subtracting OE from both side]

Similarly,

AB + BC > OA + OC ….. (2)

and AC + BC > OA + OB…. (3)

(1) + (2) + (3), we get,

2(AB + BC + CA) > 2 (OA + OB + OC) AB + BC + CA > OA + OB + OC

3. If the measurement of each exterior angle is 72°, the number of side is

1. 12
2. 10

1. In a regular polygon of n sides measurement of each exterior angle is \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{n}\)

Solution: The sum of measurement of all the interior angles of a regular polygon is 2(n-2) x 90°.

∴ The measurement of each angle is \(\frac{2(n-2) \times 90^{\circ}}{n}\)

The sum of interior and exterior angle is 180°.

∴ The exterior angle is 180° – \(\frac{2(n-2) \times 90^{\circ}}{n}=\frac{180 n-180 n+360^{\circ}}{n}=\frac{360^{\circ}}{n}\)

∴ So the statement is true.

2. If the measurement of each interior angle of a regular polygon is 120°, then the number of sides of the polygon is 6.

Solution: Exterior angle is 180° – 120° = 60°

The number of side = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{60^{\circ}}=6\)

Geometry Chapter 5 Relation Between Two Sides Of A Triangle And Their Opposite Angles Examples

Example 1. If the measurement of an angle of an isosceles triangle is 105°, then find the measurement of other two angles.

Solution: The sum of two acute angles is (180° – 105°) or 75°.

Let ∠A = 105° and AB = AC

∴ ∠B = ∠C = \(\frac{180^{\circ}-105^{\circ}}{2}=\frac{75^{\circ}}{2}=37 \cdot 5^{\circ}\)

The measurement of other two angles \(\frac{180^{\circ}-105^{\circ}}{2}=\frac{75^{\circ}}{2}=37 \cdot 5^{\circ}\)

Example 2. In an isosceles triangle one angle of the base is 55°, then find the measurement of vertical angle.

Solution: In an isosceles triangle one angle of the base is 55°.

∴ The other angle of base is 55°.

Then the vertical angle is 180° – (55° + 55°) = 180° – 110° = 70°

Example 3. In an isosceles triangle, the vertical angle is three times of each angle of the base. Find the measurement of the supplementary angle of the vertical angle.

Solution: Let measurement of each angle of the base is x°.

∴ The measurement of vertical angle is 3x°.

Sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180°.

∴ 3x + x + x° = 180°

⇒ 5x° = 180°

⇒ x = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{5}=36^{\circ}\)

⇒ The vertical angle is (3 x 36°) or 108°.

The supplementary angle of verticle angle is (180° – 108°) or 72°.

Example 4. In the adjacent, in ΔABC, AB = AC, If ∠A + ∠B = 115°, find the measurement of ∠A.

Solution: In ΔABC, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

115° + ∠C = 180°

⇒ ∠C = 180° – 115° = 65°

As AB = AC

∴ ∠B = ∠C = 65°

∠A = 115° – 65° = 50°

The measurement of ∠A = 50°

Example 5. In ΔABC, AB = AC; The bisector of ∠ABC intersects AC at D. If ∠A = 56°, then find the value of ∠ABD.

Solution:

In ΔABC,

AB = AC

∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB

∠BAC = 56°

In ΔABC, ∠BAC+ ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°

56° + ∠ABC + ∠ABC = 180°

⇒ 2∠ABC = 180° – 56° = 124°

⇒ ∠ABC = \(\frac{124^{\circ}}{2}=62^{\circ}\)

As BD is the bisector of ∠ABC.

∴ ∠ABD = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ABC = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠ABC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 62° = 31°

The value of ∠ABD = 31°

Example 6. Two line segments AB and CD bisect each other at O; If AC = 4 cm, then find the length of BD.

Solution:

In ΔAOC and ΔBOD,

OA = OB, OC = OD and ∠AOC = ∠BOD [Vertically opposite angle]

ΔAOC ≅ ΔBOD [by SAS congruency]

∴ AC = BD

4 cm = BD

∴ The length of BD is 4 cm.

Example 7. In ΔABC, AB = AC; BC is extended to D such that AC = CD; if ∠ABC = 70°, then find the value of ∠BAD.

Solution:

In ΔABC, AB = AC

∴ ∠ACB = ∠ABC = 70°

Again, ∠ACB + ∠ACD = 180°

70° + ∠ACD = 180°

⇒ ∠ACD = 180° – 70° = 110°

In ΔACD, AC = CD

∴ ∠DAC = ∠ADC

∠ACD + ∠ADC + ∠DAC = 180°

110° + ∠ADC + ∠ADC= 180°

2∠ADC = 180° – 110° = 70°

⇒ ∠ADC = \(\frac{70^{\circ}}{2}=35^{\circ}\)

In ΔABD, ∠ABD + ∠ADB + ∠BAD = 180°

i.e. ∠ABC + ∠ADC + ∠BAD = 180°

70° +35° + ∠BAD = 180°

⇒ ∠BAD = 180°- 105° = 75°

The value of ∠BAD = 75°

Example 8. Prove that the lengths of the medians are equal in length in an equilateral triangle.

Solution:

Given, In ΔABC,

AB = BC = AC

Let AD, BE and CF are three medians of ΔABC.

Required to Prove: AD = BE = CF

Proof: AB = AC

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\)AB – \(\frac{1}{2}\)AC

∴ FB = EC [F and E are the midpoints of AB and AC respectively]

In ΔFBC and ΔEBC,

FB = EC

∠FBC = ∠ECB [As in ΔABC, AB = AC  ∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB] and BC = BC [Common side]

∴ ΔFBC ≅ ΔEBC [By SAS congruency]

∴ CF = BE (Corresponding sides of congruent triangles.]

Similarly, it can be proved from ΔABE and ΔADB that BE = AD

∴ AD = BE = CF (Proved)

Example 9. In trapezium ABCD, AD || BC and ∠ABC = ∠BCD. Prove that ABCD is an isosceles trapezium.

Solution: In trapezium ABCD, AD || BC and ∠ABC = ∠BCD. (Given)

Required to Prove: ABCD is an isosceles trapezium.

Construction: BA and CD are extended which meets at a point P.

Proof: In ΔPBC, ∠PBC = ∠PCB (given)

∴ PB = PC

AD || BC and AB is transversal.

∴ ∠PAD = ∠ABC [Corresponding angles]

Again, AD || BC and AC is transversal.

∴ ∠PDA = ∠BCD [Corresponding angles]

As ∠ABC = ∠BCD (given)

∴ ∠PAD = ∠PDA

In ΔPAD, ∠PAD = ∠PDA

∴ PA = PD

PB – PA = PC – PD

∴ AB = DC

∴ ABCD is an isosceles trapezium. (Proved)

Example 10. AB is the hypotenuse of the isosceles right angled triangle ABC. AD is the bisector of ∠BAC and AD intersects. BC at D. Prove that AC + CD = AB.

Solution: In right angled isosceles triangle ABC, AB is the hypotenuse.

AD is the bisector of ∠BAC and AD intersects BC at D. (Given)

Required to Prove: AC + CD = AB.

Construction: Through D I draw DE which is perpendicular on AB.

Proof: In ΔACD and ΔADE,

∠CAD = ∠EAD [as AD is the bisector of ∠BAC]

∠ACD = ∠AED = 90°  [DE ⊥ AB] and AD is common side.

∴ ΔACD ≅ ΔADE [by AAS congruency]

∴ AC = AE [Corresponding sides of congruent triangles]

and CD = DE [Corresponding sides]

In ΔABC, ∠ACB = 90° and AC = BC.

∴ ∠BAC = ∠ABC = \(\frac{90^{\circ}}{2}=45^{\circ}\)

In ΔBDE, ∠BED = 90°, ∠B = 45°

∴ ∠BDE = 180° – 90° – 45° = 45°

∴ ∠BDE = ∠B

∴ BE =  DE

∴ Again CD = DE.

∴ DE = CD = BE

AC + CD = AE + BE = AB

AB is the hypotenuse of the isosceles right-angled triangle ABC Hence (Proved).

Example 11. Two isosceles triangle ABC and DBC are situated on the opposite side of BC. Prove that AD bisects BC perpendicularly.

Solution: Two isoscles triangle ABC and DBC are situated on the opposite side of BC.

AD intersect BC at E. (Given)

Required to Prove: AD ⊥ BC and BF = CE

Proof: In ΔABD and ΔACD,

AB = AC (given)

BD = CD (given) and AD is common side.

∴ ΔACD ≅ ΔABD [By SAS congruence law]

∴ ∠BAD = ∠CAD [Corresponding angles of congruent triangles]

i.e. ∠BAE = ∠CAE

In ΔABE and ΔACE,

AB = AC, ∠BAE = ∠CAE and AE is common side.

∴ ΔABE ≅ ΔACE [By SAS congruency]

∴ BE = CE [Corresponding sides] (Proved)

and ∠AEB = ∠AEC

Again ∠AEB + ∠AEC = 180° ∠AEB + ∠AEB = 180° = 2∠AEB = 180°

⇒ ∠AEB = 90°.

∴ AE ⊥ BC i.e. AD ⊥ BC (Proved)

Example 12. Choose the correct answer:

1. In the adjacent, in ΔABC, which relation is correct?

1. AB = BC
2. AB = AC
3. AC = BC
4. AC ≠ BC

Solution: In ΔABC, ∠BAC = ∠ABC = 70°

∴ AC = BC [If the two angles of a triangle are equal then their opposite sides are equal]

∴ So the correct answer is 3. AC = BC

2. In ΔABC, AB = AC; If ∠BAC 70°, then the value of ∠ACB is

1. 70°
2. 110°
3. 35°
4. 55°

Solution: In ΔABC, AB = AC

∴ ∠ACB = ∠ABC.

Again, ∠BAC+ ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°

70° + ∠ACB + ∠ACB = 180°

⇒ 2∠ACB = 180°- 70° = 110°

⇒ ∠ACB = \(\frac{110^{\circ}}{2}\) = 55°

∴ So the correct answer is 4. 55°

The value of ∠ACB is 4. 55°.

3. In the adjacent, in ΔABC, AB = AC and DE || BC; If ∠AED = 50°, then the value of ∠ABC is

1. 50°
2. 80°
3. 100°
4. 70°

Solution: DE || BC and AC is transversal.

∴ ∠ACB = ∠AED [Corresponding angles] = 50°

In ΔABC, AB = AC

∴ ∠ACB = ∠ABC 50° = ∠ABC.

∴ So the correct answer is 1. 50°

The value of ∠ABC is 50°

Example 13. Write ‘True’ or ‘False’:

1. In an isosceles obtuse-angled triangle the measurement of an acute angle is 1/4 of measurement of the obtuse angle. The value of the acute angle is 20°.

Solution: Let value of each acute angle is x°.

∴ The value of obtuse angle is 4x°.

4x° + x° + x° = 180°

⇒ 6x° = 180°

⇒ x° = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{6}=30^{\circ}\)

The measurement of each acute angle is 30°.

∴ So the statement is false.

2. In the adjacent, in ΔABC, AB = AC and ∠ACD = 100°. The value of ∠ABE becomes 100°.

Solution: AC is stands on line ED.

∴ ∠ACD + ∠ACB = 180°

100° + ∠ACB = 180°

⇒ ∠ACB = 80°

In ΔABC, AB = AC

∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB = 80°

As AB is stands on ED.

∴ ∠ABC + ∠ABE = 180°

80° + ∠ABE = 180°

⇒ ∠ABE = 180° – 80° = 100°

The value of ∠ABE becomes 100°

∴ So the statement is true.

Example 14. Fill in the blanks:

1. The measurement of each acute angle of an isoceles right-angled triangle is _______

Solution:

∠ABC = 90° and AB = BC

∴ ∠A = ∠C

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

∠A + 90° + ∠A = 180°

⇒ 2∠A = 90°

⇒ A = 45°

∴ The measurements of each acute angle is 45°.

2. The measurement of each angle of an equilateral triangle is _______

Solution: Three sides are equal.

Hence three angles are equal.

∴ Each angle is = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{3}=60^{\circ}\)

Given: Let AB and CD are two parallel lines and EF intersects AB and CD at G and H respectively.

Required to prove:

1. ∠AGH = ∠GHD
2. ∠BGH + ∠GHD = 180°

Proof:

1. AB || CD and EF is a transversal.

∴ ∠EGB = ∠GHD (Corresponding angles)

Again, ∠EGB = ∠AGH (Vertically opposite angles)

∴ ∠AGH = ∠GHD (Proved)

2. AB || CD and EF is transversal.

∴ ∠EGB = ∠GHD [Corresponding angles]

Again, GB is stands on EF

∴ ∠EGB + ∠BGH = 180°

Theorem 2: If a straight line intersects two straight lines and if

1. Measurement of one pair of alternate angles is equal or
2. Sum of measurement of two interior angles of the same side of the transversal is two right angles, then two straight lines are parallel.

Given: Let EF intersect AB and CD at G and H respectively.

Required to Prove: AB || CD.

Proof:

1. ∠AGH = ∠EGB [Vertically opposite angles]

Again, ∠AGH = ∠GHD [Given]

∴ ∠EGB = ∠GHD and they are corresponding angles.

∴ AB || CD (Proved).

2. GB is stands on EF

∴ ∠EGB + ∠BGH = 180°

Again, ∠BGH + ∠GHD = 180° (Given)

∴ ∠EGB + ∠BGH = ∠BGH + ∠GHD

⇒ ∠EGB = ∠GHD [Subtracting ∠BGH from both sides] And this two angles are corresponding angles.

∴ AB || CD (Proved)

Geometry Chapter 3 Properties Of Parallel Lines And Their Transversal Examples

Example 1. In the adjacent find the value of x.

Solution: AB || CD and EF is transversal.

∴ ∠EGB = ∠GHD [Corresponding angles] = 56°

∠AGE + ∠EGB = 180° [As GE stands on AB]

x + 56° = 180°

⇒ x = 180° – 56°

⇒ x = 124°

∴ The value of the x = 124°

Example 2. In the adjacent find the value of y.

Solution: AB || CD and EF is transversal.

∴ ∠DHF = ∠BGH (Corresponding angles) = 105°

∠CHF + ∠DHF = 180°

y + 105° = 180°

⇒ y = 180° – 105°

⇒ y = 75°

∴ The value of the y = 75°

Example 3. Examining the measurement of the angles given below conclude logically AB and CD are parallel.

Solution:

1. ∠BGH + ∠GHD = 140° + 20° = 160° 180°

∴ AB and CD are not parallel lines to each other.

2. ∠BGH = 180°- ∠AGH = 180° – 130° = 50°

∴ ∠BGH = ∠DHF and these angles are corresponding angles.

∴ AB || CD

3. ∠BGH = 180°- ∠EGB = 180°-70° = 110°

∴ AB || CD.

⇔ AB and CD are parallel.

Example 4. In the adjacent AB || CD, ∠RCD = 30°, ∠PAB = 50°, ∠PAC = 140°. Find the measurement of all the angles of ΔAQC.

Solution:

I drew QS through Q which is parallel to AB.

As AB || CD and AB || QS

∴ AB || QS || CD

AB || QS and PQ is transversal.

∴ ∠PQS = ∠PAB [Corresponding angles] = 50°

QS || CD and QR is transversal.

∴ ∠RQS = ∠RCD [Corresponding angles]= 30°

∠AQC = ∠PQS + ∠RQS = 50° + 30° = 80°

∠QAC + ∠PAC = 180°

∠QAC + 140° = 180°

⇒ ∠QAC = 180°

⇒ ∠QAC = 180° – 140° = 40°

In ΔAQC, ∠AQC = 80°, ∠QAC = 40°

∴ ∠ACQ = 180° – (80° + 40°) [In ΔAQC, ∠QAC + ∠AQC + ∠ACQ = 180°]

= 180° – 120°

∴ The angle of triangle ΔAQC = 60°

Example 5. In parallelogram PQRS, if ∠P = 90°, then find the values of other three angles.

Solution: In parallelogram PQRS;

SP || RQ and PQ is transversal:

∴ ∠P + ∠Q = 180°

∴ 90° + ∠Q = 180°

⇒ Q = 180° – 90° = 90°

Again, SR || PQ and RQ is transversal.

∴ ∠Q + ∠R = 180°

90° + ∠R = 180°

⇒ ∠R = 180° – 90° = 90°

Similarly ∠S = 90°

Example 6. In the adjacent AB || CD and ∠EGB = 50°. Find the values of ∠AGE, ∠AGH, ∠CHF, and ∠DHF.

Solution: ∠AGE + ∠EGB = 180°

∠AGE + 50° = 180°

⇒ ∠AGE = 180° – 50° = 130°

⇒  ∠AGH = ∠EGB [Vertically opposite angles] = 50°

AB || CD and EF is transversal.

∴ ∠GHD = ∠AGH [Alternate angles] = 50°

∠CHF = ∠GHD = 50°

∠CHF + ∠DHF = 180°

50° + ∠DHF = 180°

∴ ∠DHF = 180° – 50° = 130°

Example 7. If the adjacent, PQ || RS; if ∠BAQ = 3∠ABS, then find the value of ∠RBN.

Solution: AB || RS and MN is transversal.

∴ ∠BAQ + ∠ABS = 180°

3∠ABS + ∠ABS = 180°

⇒ 4∠ABS = 180°

⇒ ∠ABS = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{4}=45^{\circ}\) = 45°

∠RBN = ∠ABS = 45°.

The value of ∠RBN 45°.

Example 8. O is any point inside two parallel lines AB and CD. OP and OQ are two perpendiculars on AB and CD respectively. Prove that P, O, and Q are collinear.

Solution:

Through O the straight line RS is drawn parallel to AB.

AB || CD and AB || RS.

∴ AB || CD || RS

OP ⊥ AB.

∴ ∠OPB = 90°

OQ ⊥ CD.

∴ ∠OQD = 90°

AB || RS and OP is transversal.

∴ ∠OPB + ∠POS = 180°

90° + ∠POS = 180°

⇒ ∠POS = 180°- 90° = 90°

CD || RS and OQ is transversal.

∠OQD + ∠QOS = 180°

90° + ∠QOS = 180°

⇒ ∠QOS = 180° – 90° = 90°

∠POQ = ∠QOS + ∠POS= 90° + 90° = 180°

∴ OP and OQ lies on the same straight line.

∴ P, O, and Q are collinear.

Example 9. If the sides of an angles are respectively parallel to the sides of another angle, then the angles are either equal or supplementary.

Solution: Given Let in angles ∠ABC and ∠DEF, AB || DE and BC || EF, BC, and DE intersect at G.

Required to Prove:

1. ∠ABC = ∠DEF [from (1)]
2. ∠ABC and ∠DEF supplementary i.e. ∠ABC + ∠DEF = 180° [From (2)]

Proof:

From (1) AB || DE and BC is transversal.

∴ ∠ABC = ∠DGC [Corresponding angles]

Again, BC || EF and DE is transversal.

∴ ∠DGC = ∠DEF [Corresponding angles]

As ∠ABC = ∠DGC and ∠DGC = ∠DEF

∴ ∠ABC = ∠DEF (Proved).

From (2) BC || EF and DE is transversal.

∴ ∠DGB = ∠DEF [Corresponding angles]

Again, AB || DE and BC is transversal.

∴∠ABC + ∠DGB = 180°

∴ ∠ABC + ∠DEF = 180°

∴ ∠ABC and ∠DEF are supplementary angles. (Proved)

Example 10. Prove that straight lines perpendicular to the same straight line are parallel to one another.

Solution: Let PQ and RS are both perpendicular to AB.

Required to Prove: PQ || RS

Proof: PQ ⊥ AB

∴ ∠PQB = 90°

∴ RS ⊥ AB

∴ ∠RSB = 90°

∴ ∠PQB = ∠RSB and these are corresponding angles.

∴ PQ || RS (Proved).

Example 11. Choose the correct answer:

1. In the adjacent if AB || CD, then the value of x is,

1. 68°
2. 22°
3. 112°
4. 34°

Solution: AB || CD and EF is transversal.

∴ ∠EGB = ∠GHD [Corresponding angles] = 68°

The ray GE is stands on line AB

∴ ∠AGE + ∠EGB = 180°

∠AGE + 68° = 180°

⇒ ∠AGE = 180° – 68°

⇒ x° = 112°

∴ So the correct answer is 3. 112°

The value of x is 112°

2. In the adjacent if AB || CD, then value of x is

1. 50
2. 40
3. 60
4. 70

Solution: AB || CD and EF is transvesal.

∴ ∠GHD = ∠EGB [Corresponding angles] = (2x – 50)°

∠GHD + ∠FHD = 180°

2x – 50 + x + 80 = 180

3x + 30 = 180

3x = 150

⇒ x = \(\frac{150}{3}\) = 50

∴ So the correct answer is 1. 50

Value of x is 50.

3. In the adjacent AB || CD, if ∠EGB = 50°, then the value of x is

1. 130°
2. 40°
3. 50°
4. 60°

Solution: ∠GHD = ∠EGB = 50°

∠CHF = ∠GHD [Vertically opposite angle] = 50°

∴ So the correct answer is 3. 50°

The value of x is 50°

Example 12. Write ‘True’ or ‘False’:

1. In the adjacent if ∠3 = 120° and ∠8 = 60°, then AB || CD.

Solution: ∠6 = ∠8 = 60°

∠3 + ∠6 = 120° + 60° = 180°

∴ AB || CD

∴ So the statement is true.

2. In the adjacent if ∠EGB = 75° and ∠DHF = 95°, then AB || CD.

Solution: ∠AGH = ∠EGB [Vertically opposite angles] = 75°

∴ ∠GHC = ∠DHF = 95°

∠AGH + ∠GHC = 75° + 95° = 170°

∴ AB and CD are not parallel to each other.

∴ So the statement is false.

Example 13. Fill in the blanks:

1. In the adjacent, AB || CD and GP is the bisector of ∠AGH; if ∠AGP= 40°, then the value of ∠FHD is ________

Solution: ∠AGH = 2 ∠AGP = 2 x 40° = 80°

AB || CD

∴ ∠AGH + ∠GHC = 180°

80° + ∠GHC 180°

⇒ ∠GHC = 100°

∠FHD = ∠GHC = 100°

The value of ∠FHD is 100°.

Vertically opposite angles:

Axioms And Postulates:

⇒ Some of the properties of geometrical figures are self-evident and are accepted without any proof.

⇒ Such self-evident truths are called axioms and the statement, stating these self-evident truths are called postulates.

Theorem: With the help of these axioms and postulates, some other important properties in geometry can easily be proved.

The course of proving such properties is called a theorem.

Postulates:

1. Through any two points is a unique line.
2. A line segment may be infinitely extended in both sides.
3. There exist circles with any center and any radius.
4. All right angles are equal in measure.
5. One and only one straight line can be drawn passing through a given point and parallel to a given straight line where the point is not on the line [Playfair’s postulate]

Axioms:

1. If a ray stands on a straight line, then the sum of the measurement of two adjacent angles so formed is 180°.
2. If the sum of the measurement of two adjacent angles is 180°, then the non-common arms of the angles form a straight line.

Theorem 1. If two straight lines intersect each other then the measurement of vertically opposite angles are equal.

Given: AB and CD intersect at O.

As a result two pairs of vertically opposite angles ∠AOD, ∠BOC, and ∠AOC, ∠BOD are formed.

Required to prove: ∠AOD = ∠BOC and ∠AOC = ∠BOD

Proof: AD stands on CD.

∴ ∠AOC + ∠AOD = 180°

⇒ Again OC stands on AB

∴ ∠AOC + ∠BOC = 180°

∴ ∠AOC + ∠AOD = ∠AOC + ∠BOC

⇒ ∠AOD = ∠BOC (Subtracting ∠AOC from both sides)

⇒ Again OB stands on CD

∴ ∠BOC + ∠BOD = 180°

∴ ∠AOC+ ∠BOC = ∠BOC + ∠BOD

⇒ ∠AOC = ∠BOD (Subtracting ∠BOC from both sides)

∴ ∠AOD = ∠BOC and ∠AOC = ∠BOD (Proved)

If two straight lines intersect each other then the measurement of vertically opposite angles are equal.

Geometry Chapter 3 Concept Of Vertically Opposite Angles Examples

Example 1. Find the measurement of ∠AOE, ∠BOD, and ∠AOC.

Solution: ∠AOD = ∠BOC (vertically opposite angles)

⇒  ∠AOD = 75°

⇒  i.e. ∠AOE + ∠DOE = 75°

⇒  ∠AOE + 30° = 75°

⇒ ∠AOE = 75° – 30° = 45°

⇒  Again, ∠BOD + ∠BOC = 180° [As BO stands on CD]

⇒ ∠BOD +75° = 180°

⇒ ∠BOD = 180° – 75° = 105°

∴ ∠AOC = ∠BOD (vertically opposite angles) = 105°

The measurement of ∠AOE, ∠BOD, and ∠AOC Are 45°, 105° ,105°

Example 2. Two straight lines PQ and RS intersect at point O; OT is the bisector of ∠POS. If ∠POR = 45°, then find ∠TOS.

Solution: OP stands on RS.

∴ ∠POR + ∠POS = 180°

⇒ 45° + ∠POS = 180°

⇒ ∠POS = 180° – 45° = 135°

OT is the bisector of ∠POS

∴ ∠TOS = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠POS = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 135° = 67°\(\frac{1}{2}^{\circ}\)

Example 3. If ∠POR = 2 ∠QOR, then find the value of ∠POS.

Solution: ∠POR + ∠QOR = 180° [As OR stands on PQ]

2∠QOR + ∠QOR = 180°

⇒ 3 ∠QOR = 180°

⇒ ∠QOR = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{3}=60^{\circ}\)

⇒ ∠POS = ∠QOR [Vertically opposite angles] = 60°

Example 4. Prove that internal and external bisectors of an angle are perpendicular to each other.

Solution: Let OP and OQ are the internal and external bisector of ∠AOC respectively.

Required to prove: OP and OQ are perpendicular to each other.

Proof: OQ is the external bisector of ∠AOC,

So OQ is the bisector of ∠BOC.

∠POQ = ∠POC + ∠COQ

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠AOC + \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠COB

[as OP and OQ are the bisectors of ∠AOC and ∠BOC respectively]

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(∠AOC + ∠COB) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × ∠AOB

= \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 180° [one straight angle] = 90°

∴ OP and OQ are perpendicular to each other. (Proved)

Example 5. If two straight lines intersect each other then four angles are formed. Find the sum of the measurement of four angles.

Solution: Let two straight lines AB and CD intersect at point O.

CO is stands on AB.

∴ ∠AOC + ∠COB = 180°

OD is stands on AB.

∴ ∠AOD + ∠BOD = 180°

∴ ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠AOD + ∠BOD = 180°+ 180° = 360°

The sum of the measurement of four angles 360°.

Example 6. Two straight lines intersect each other at a point and thus four angles are formed. Prove that the bisectors of these angles are two perpendicular straight lines.

Solution: Let AB and CD intersects at point O.

PQ and RS are the bisectors of ∠AOD and ∠AOC respectively.

Required to prove: PQ and RS are perpendicular to each other.

Proof: ∠POR = ∠AOP + ∠AOR

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠AOD + ∠AOC

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(∠AOD + ∠AOC)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠COD = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 180° = 90°

∴ OP and OR are perpendicular to each other. (Proved)

Example 7. Find the value of x, y, and z.

Solution: ∠AOC = ∠BOD (vertically opposite angles) = 40°

∠AOP + ∠POD + ∠BOD = 180°

60° + y° + 40° = 180°

⇒ y° = 180° – 100° = 80°

∠AOC + ∠COQ + ∠BOQ = 180°

40° + z° + 30° = 180°

⇒ z° = 180°-70° = 110°

Example 8. PQ and RS are two straight lines intersecting at a point O. Prove that if the bisector of the ∠POR is produced through O, it will bisects the ∠SOQ.

Solution: Let AO is the bisect ∠POR and let it be produced to B.

Required to Prove: OB bisects ∠SOQ.

Proof: ∠SOB = ∠AOR [Vertically opposite angles]

∠BOQ = ∠AOP [Vertically opposite angles]

Again, ∠AOR = ∠AOP [AO is the bisector of ∠POR]

∴ ∠SOB = ∠BOQ

∴ OB bisects ∠SOQ (Proved).

Example 9. Prove that the bisectors of a pair of vertically opposite angles lie in the same straight line.

Solution: Let OE and OF are the bisectors of ∠AOC and ∠BOD respectively.

Required to prove: OE and OF lie in the same straight line.

Proof: OE and OF are the bisectors of ∠AOC and ∠BOD respectively.

∴ ∠AOE = ∠COE and ∠DOF = ∠BOF

∠AOD = ∠BOC (Vertically opposite angles)

∠AOE + ∠COE + ∠BOC + ∠BOF + ∠DOF + ∠AOD = 360°

∠COE + ∠COE + ∠BOC + ∠BOF + ∠BOF + ∠BOC = 360°

⇒ 2(∠COE + ∠BOC+ ∠BOF) = 360°

⇒ ∠COE + ∠BOC+ ∠BOF = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{2}=180^{\circ}\)

i.e. ∠EOF = 180°

i.e. OE and OF lies in the same straight line. (Proved).

Example 10. The straight lines AB and CD intersect at point O; ∠AOD + ∠BOC = 102°, If OP is the bisector of ∠BOD, then find the measurement of ∠BOP.

Solution: ∠AOD = ∠BOC [Vertically opposite angles]

∠AOD + ∠BOC = 102°

∠AOD + ∠AOD = 102°

⇒ 2 ∠AOD = 102°

⇒ ∠AOD = \(\frac{102^{\circ}}{2}=51^{\circ}\)

OD stands on AB

∴ ∠AOD + ∠BOD = 180°

51° + ∠BOD 180°

⇒ ∠BOD = 180° – 51° = 129°

OP is the bisector of ∠BOD

∴ ∠BOP = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BOD =\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 129° = 64\(\frac{1}{2}^{\circ}\)

The measurement of ∠BOP = \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠BOD =\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 129° = 64\(\frac{1}{2}^{\circ}\)

Example 11. Choose the correct answer:

1. If ∠I = 35°, then find the value of ∠2 is

1. 35°
2. 145°
3. 70°
4. 55°

Solution: ∠I + ∠2 = 180°

35° + ∠2 = 180°

⇒ ∠2 = 180° – 35° = 145°

∴ So the correct answer is 2. 145°

The value of ∠2 is 145°

2. If ∠TOS = 20° and ∠ROQ = 60°, then the value of ∠POT is

1. 60°
2. 120°
3. 40°
4. 80°

Solution: ∠POS = ∠ROQ [vertically opposite angles]

= 60°

i.e. ∠POT + ∠TOS = 60°

⇒ ∠POT + 20° 60°

⇒ ∠POT = 60° – 20° = 40°

∴ So the correct answer is 3. 40°

The value of ∠POT is 40°

3. If ∠AOC + ∠BOD = 112°, the value of ∠BOC is

1. 112°
2. 56°
3. 68°
4. 124°

Solution: ∠AOC = ∠BOD

∠AOC + ∠BOD = 112°

∠AOC + ∠AOC = 112°

⇒ 2∠AOC = 112°

⇒ ∠AOC = \(\frac{112^{\circ}}{2}=56^{\circ}\)

⇒ ∠BOC + ∠AOC = 180°

⇒ ∠BOC + 56° 180°

⇒ ∠BOC = 180° – 56° = 124°

∴ So the correct answer is 4. 124°

The value of ∠BOC is 124°

Example 12. Write ‘True’ or ‘False’:

1. The vertically opposite angle of 68° is 112°.

Solution: The vertically opposite angle of 68° is 68°.

So the statement is false.

2. If OP is stands on line AB and ∠AOP = 100°, then the value of ∠BOP is 80°.

Solution: OP is stands on AB

∴ ∠AOP + ∠BOP = 180°

∠AOP +80° = 180°

⇒ ∠AOP = 180° – 80° = 100°

∴ So the statement is true.

Complementary angles: If the sum of two angles is equal to 90°. or a Right angle, each angle is called complementary to the other angle.

⇒ ∠AOB + ∠BOC = 90°

Supplementary angles: If the sum of two angles is equal to 180° or straight angle, each angle is called the supplementary to the other angle.

⇒ ∠POQ + ∠QOR = 180°

Adjacent angles: If two angles in the same plane have the same vertex and a common side and the angles are on two opposite of common sides, they are called Adjacent angles.

Example 8. In the adjacent angle find the value of x.

Solution: ∠AOD = 180° [Straight angle]

⇒ ∠AOB + ∠BOC+ ∠COD = 180°

⇒ x° + 105° + 2x° = 180°

⇒ 3x° = 180° – 105° = 75°

Solution: The value of each acute angle is less than 90°.

⇒ The sum of two acute angles is always less than (90° + 90°) or 180°.

⇒ But the sum of two supplementary angles is 180°.

⇒ So two acute angles are no supplementary angles.

Example 14. Write which pair of angles are adjacent from the following:

Solution: In (1), ∠POQ and ∠QOR have the same vertex O and a common side of OQ and the angles are on two opposite side of OQ.

⇒ So, ∠POQ and ∠QOR are adjacent angles.

⇒ In (2), ∠POQ and ∠POR have the same vertex O and common side of OP.

⇒ But the angles are on the same side of OP.

⇒ So, ∠POQ and ∠POR are not adjacent angles.

⇒ In (3), ∠PTQ and ∠QOR have not the same vertex [T is the vertex of ∠PTQ and O is the vertex of ∠QOR]

∴ ∠PTQ and ∠QOR are not adjacent angles.

Example 15: Choose the correct answer:

1. The measurements of the complementary angle of 70° is

1. 110°
2. 70°
3. 20°
4. 35°

Solution: The measurement of the complementary angle of 70° is (90° – 70°) or 20°.

∴ So the correct answer is 3. 20°

The measurements of the complementary angle of 70° is 20°

2. Which pair of angles are complementary?

1. 30°, 60°
2. 40°, 42°
3. 80°, 20°
4. 72°, 25°

Solution: 30° + 60° = 90°

∴ 30° and 60° are complementary.

∴ So the correct answer is 1. 30°, 60°

3. Which pair of angles are not supplementary?

1. 40°, 140°
2. 60°, 120°
3. 80°, 100°
4. 90°, 75°

Solution: 40°+ 140° = 180° [Supplementary angles]

⇒ 60°+ 120° = 180° [Supplementary angles]

⇒ 80° + 100° = 180° [Supplementary angles]

⇒ 90° + 75° = 165° [are not supplementary angles]

∴ So the correct answer is 4. 90°, 75°

Example 16. Write ‘True’ or ‘False’:

1. Any two adjacent angles are complementary to each other.

Solution: If sum of measurements of two angles is equal to 90°, then each angle is called complementary to the other angle.

As sum of any two adjacent angles may be 90° or may not be 90°.

∴ So the statement is false.

2. The supplementary angle of right angle is right angle.

Solution: The supplementary angle of right angle is (180° – 90°) or 90° which is right angle.

∴ So the statement is true.

Example 17. Fill in the blanks:

1. Two _______ angles are complementary angles.

Solution: Acute

2. The supplementary angle of 0° is _______

Solution: 180°
