(iv) If two angles are supplementary, then their sum is
A. 90°
B. 180°
C. 270°
D. 360°
Solution:
(B) 180°
(v) The measure of an angle which is 5 times its supplement is _________
A. 30°
B. 60°
C. 120°
D. 150°
Solution:
(D) 150°
Question 2.
What is the difference between a pair of supplementary angles and a pair of complementary angles?
Solution:
If the sum of two angles is 180° then they are supplementary angles. If the sum of two angles is 90° then they are complementary angles.
Question 3.
What is the least number of non – collinear points required to determine a plane?
Solution:
Three (3)
Question 4.
When do you say two angles are adjacent?
Solution:
Two angles are said to be adjacent angles if they have a common vertex and a common side.



∠ AUV – ∠CVP = 70°
[corresponding angles]
∠QUB – ∠AUV = 70° [vertically opposite angles]
∠BUW + ∠DWU = 180° [Interior angles on the same side of transversal]
∠BUW + 110°= 180°
∠BUW = 180-110° = 70°
∠BUW = ∠AUS= 70° [vertically opposite angles]
∠AUS + ∠SUQ + ∠QUB = 180° ∠AUB is a straight angle]
70 + ∠SUQ + 70 = 180°
∠SUQ + 140° = 180°
∠SUQ = 180° – 140°
∠SUQ = 40°
Question 9.
What is the angle between the hours hand and minutes hand of a clock at (i) 1.40 hours (ii) 2.15 hours [use 1° = 60 minutes]
Solution:
i. 1.40 hours – 190°
ii. 2.15 hours – 22° 30′
Question 10.
How much would hour’s hand have moved from its position at 12 noon when the time is 4.24 p.m?
Solution:
144°
Question 17.
Consider two parallel lines and a transversal among the measures of 8 angles formed how many distinct numbers are there?
Solution:
There will be two distinct numbers.
