Samacheer Kalvi 6th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 4 Geometry Ex 4.4

Solution:
We know that the two angles are complementary if they add up to 90°.
Therefore (a) (i) is complementary.
In (v) ∠ABC and ∠CBD are complementary
(b) (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) are non-complementary

Question 7.
From the figures given below, classify the following pairs of angles into supplementary and non-supplementary.

Solution:
If two angles add up to 180°, then they are supplementary angles.
(a) In (ii) ∠AOB and ∠BOD are supplementary. In (iv) the pair is supplementary
(b) (i) and (iii) are not supplementary.

Question 8.
From the figure.
(i) name a pair of complementary angles
(ii) name a pair of supplementary angles

Solution:
(i) ∠FAE and ∠DAE are complementary
(ii) ∠FAD and ∠DAC are supplementary

Question 9.
Find the complementary angle of
(i) 30°
(ii) 26°
(iii) 85°
(iv) 0°
Solution:
When we have an angle, how far we need to go to reach the right angle is called the complementary angle.
(i) Complementary angle of 30° is 90° – 30° = 60°
(ii) Complementary angle of 26° is 90° – 26° = 64°
(iii) Complementary angle of 85° is 90° – 85° = 5°
(iv) Complementary angle of 0° is 90° – 0° = 90°
(v) Complementary angle of 90° is 90° – 90° = 0°

Question 10.
Find the supplementary angle of
(i) 70°
(ii) 35°
(iii) 165°
(iv) 90°
(v) 0°
(vi) 180°
(vii) 95°
Solution:
How far we should go in the same direction to reach the straight angle (180°) is called supplementary angle.
(i) Supplementary angle of 70° = 180° – 70° = 110°
(ii) Supplementary angle of 35° is 180° – 35° = 145°
(iii) Supplementary angle of 165° is 180° – 165° = 15°
(iv) Supplementary angle of 90° is 180° – 90° = 90°
(v) Supplementary angle of 0° is 180° – 0° = 180°
(vi) Supplementary angle of 180° is 180° – 180° = 0°
(vii) Supplementary angle of 95° is 180° – 95° = 85°

Question 12.
Which angle is equal to twice of its complement?
Solution:
We know that the sum of complementary angles 90°
Given Angle = 2 × Complementary angle

By trial and error, we find that Angle = 2 × Complement for 60°
The required angle = 60°
Another method:
Let the angle be x given
x = 2 (90 – x)
⇒ x = 180 – 2x
⇒ x + 2x = 180
⇒ 3x = 180
⇒ x = 60°

Question 13.
Which angle is equal to two-thirds of its supplement.
Solution:
Supplementary angles sum upto 180°
Given Angle = 2/3 × Supplement.
Forming the Table.

By trial and error, we find that angle = 2/3 × supplement for 72°.
The required angle 72°.

Question 14.
Given two angles are supplementary and one angle is 20° more than other. Find the two angles.
Solution:
Given two angles are supplementary i.e. their sum = 180°.
Let the angle be x
Then another angle = x + 20 (given)

The two angles are 80° and 100°.

Question 15.
Two complementary angles are in the ratio 7 : 2. Find the angles.
Solution:
Let the angles be 7x, 2x
According to the problem,
7x + 2x = 90
9x = 90
x = 90/9
x = 10
7x = 7 × 10
= 70
2x = 2 × 10
= 20
∴ Two angles are 70° and 20°

Question 16.
Two supplementary angles are in ratio 5 : 4. Find the angles.
Solution:
Total of two supplementary angles = 180°
Given they are in the ratio 5 : 4
Dividing total angles to 5 + 4 = 9 equal parts.
One angle =5/9×180=100∘
Another angle =4/9×180=80∘
Two angles are 100° and 80°.
