Miscellaneous Practice Problems
Question 1.
Find the value of x if ∠AOB is a right angle.
Solution:
Given that ∠AOB = 90°
∠AOB = ∠AOC + ∠COB = 90° (Adjacent angles)
3x + 2x = 90°
5x = 90°
Question 2.
In the given figure, find the value of x.
Solution:
Since ∠BOC and ∠AOC are linear pair, their sum = 180°
2x + 23 + 3x – 48 = 180°
5x – 25 = 180°
5x – 25 + 25 = 180° + 25
Question 3.
Find the value of x, y and z.
Solution:
∠DOB and ∠BOC are linear pair
∴ ∠DOB + ∠BOC = 180°
x + 3x + 40 = 180°
4x + 40 = 180°
4x + 40 – 40 = 180° – 40°
4x = 140°
Also ∠BOD and ∠AOC are vertically opposite angles.
∴ ∠BOD = ∠AOC
x = z + 10
35° = z + 10
z + 10 – 10 = 35 – 10
z = 25°
Again ∠AOD and ∠AOC are linear pair.
∴ ∠AOD + ∠AOC = 180°
y + 30 + z + 10 = 180°
y + 30 + 25 + 10 = 180°
y + 65 = 180°
y + 65 – 65 = 180° – 65
y = 115°
∴ x = 35°,
y = 115°,
z = 25°
Question 4.
Two angles are in the ratio 11 : 25. If they are linear pair, find the angles.
Solution:
Given two angles are in the ratio 11 : 25.
Let the angles be 11x and 25x.
They are also linear pair
∴ 11x + 25x = 180°.
∴ The angles 11x = 11 × 5° = 55° and 25x = 25 × 5 = 125°.
∴ The angles are 55° and 125°.
Question 5.
Using the figure, answer the following questions and justify your answer.
(i) Is ∠1 adjacent to ∠2?
(ii) Is ∠AOB adjacent to ∠BOE?
(iii) Does ∠BOC and ∠BOD form a linear pair?
(iv) Are the angles ∠COD and ∠BOD supplementary.
(v) Is ∠3 vertically opposite to ∠1 ?
Solution:
(i) Yes, ∠1 is adjacent to ∠2.
Because they both have the common vertex ‘O’ and the common arm OA . Also their interiors do not overlap.
(ii) No, ∠AOB and ∠BOB are not adjacent angles because they have overlapping interiors.
(iii) No, ∠BOC and ∠BOD does not form a linear pair.
Because ∠BOC itself a straight angle, so the sum of ∠BOC and ∠BOD exceed 180°.
(iv) Yes, the angles ∠COD and ∠BOD are supplementary ∠COD + ∠BOD = 180°, [∵ linear pair of angles]
∴ ∠COD and ∠BOD are supplementary.
(v) No. ∠3 and ∠1 are not formed by intersecting lines. So they are not vertically opposite angles.
Question 6.
In the figure POQ, ROS and TOU are straight lines. Find the x°.
Solution:
Given TOU is a straight line.
∴ The sum of all angles formed at a point on a straight line is 180°
∠TOR + ∠ROP + ∠POV + ∠VOU = 180°.
36° + 47°+ 45° + x° = 180°.
128° + x° = 180°
128° + x° – 128° = 180° – 128°
x = 52°
Question 7.
In the figure AB is parallel to DC. Find the value of ∠1 and ∠2. Justify your answer.
Solution:
Given AB || DC
AB and CD are parallel lines Taking CE as transversal we have.
∠1 = 30°, [∵ alternate interior angles]
Taking DE as transversal
∠2 = 80°.[∵ alternate interior angles]
∠1 = 30° and ∠2 = 80°
Justification:
CDE is a triangle
Question 8.
In the figure AB is parallel to CD. Find x, y and z.
Solution:
Given AB || CD
∴ Z = 42 (∵ Alternate interior angles)
Also y = 42° [vertically opposite angles]
Also x° + 63° + z° = 180°
x° + 63° + 42° = 180°
x° + 105° = 180°
x°+ 105° – 105° = 180° – 105°
x° = 75°
∴ x = 75°;
y = 42°;
z = 42°
Question 9.
Draw two parallel lines and a transversal. Mark two alternate interior angles G and H. If they are supplementary, what is the measure of each angle?
Solution:
l and m are parallel lines and n is the transversal.
∠G and ∠H are alternate interior angles.
∠G = ∠H …… (1)
Given ∠G and ∠G are Suplementary
Question 10.
A plumber must install pipe 2 parallel to pipe 1. He knows that ∠1 is 53. What is the measure of ∠2?
Solution:
Given ∠1 = 53°
Clearly ∠1 and ∠2 are interior angles on the same side of the transversal and so they are supplementary.
∠1 + ∠2 = 180°
53° + ∠2 = 180°
53° + ∠2 – 53° = 180° – 53°
∠2 = 127°
Challenge Problems
Question 11.
Find the value of y.
Solution:
Cleary POQ is a straight line”
Sum of all angles formed at a point on a straight line is 180°
∴ ∠POT + ∠TOS + ∠SOR + ∠ROQ = 180°
60° + (3y – 20°) + y° + (y + 10°) = 180°
60° + 3y – 20° + y° + y° + 10° = 180°
5y + 50° = 180°
5y + 50° – 50° = 180° – 50
5y = 130°
y=130∘/5
y = 26°
Solution:
Given RS || PQ
Considering the transversal RU, we have y = 25° (corresponding angles)
Considering ST as transversal
Question 14.
Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. For each pair of interior angles on the same side of the transversal, if one angle exceeds the twice of the other angle by 48°. Find the angles.
Solution:
Let the two parallel lines be m and n and l be the transversal
Let one of the interior angles on the same side of the transversal be x°
Then the other will be 2x + 48.
We know that they are supplementary.
Question 15.
In the figure, the lines GH and IJ are parallel. If ∠1 = 108° and ∠2 = 123°, find the value of x, y and z.
Solution:
Given GH || IZ
∠1 = 108°
∠2 = 123°
∠1 + ∠KGH = 180 [linear pair]
108° + ∠KGH = 180°
108° + ∠KGH – 108° = 180° – 108°
∠KGH = 72°
∠KGH = x° (corresponding angles if KG is a transversal)
∴ x° = 72°
Similarly
∠2 + ∠GHK = 180° (∵ linear pair)
123° + ∠GHK = 180°
123° + ∠GHK – 123° = 180° – 123°
∠GHK = 57°
Again ∠GHK = y° (corresponding angles if KH is a transversal)
y = 57°
x° +y° + z° = 180° (sum of three angles of a triangle is 180°)
72° + 57° + z° = 180°
129° + z° = 180°
129° + z° – 129° = 180° – 129°
z = 51°
x = 72°,
y = 57°,
z = 51°
Question 16.
In the parking lot shown, the lines that mark the width of each space are parallel. If
∠1 = (2x – 3y)°; ∠2 = (x + 39)° find x° and y°.
Solution:
From the picture
∠2 + 65° = 180° [Sum of interior angles on the same side of a transversal]
x + 39° + 65° = 180°
x + 104° = 180°
x + 104° – 104° = 180° – 104°
x = 76°
Also from the picture
∠1 = 65° [alternate exterior angles]
2x – 3y = 65°
2 (76) – 3y = 65°
152° – 3y = 65°
152° – 3y – 152° = 65 – 152°
-3y = -87
Question 17.
Draw two parallel lines and a transversal. Mark two corresponding angles A and B. If ∠A = 4x, and ∠B = 3x + 7, find the value of x. Explain.
Solution:
Let m and n are two parallel lines and l is the transversal.
A and B are corresponding angles.
We know that corresponding angles are equals,
Question 18.
In the figure AB in parallel to CD. Find x°, y° and z°.
Solution:
Given AB||CD
Then AD and BC are transversals.
x = 48°, alternate interior angles; AD is transversal y = 60°, alternate interior angles; BC is transversal
∠AEB + 48° + y° = 180°, (sum of angles of a triangle is 180°)
Question 19.
Two parallel lines are cut by transversal. If one angle of a pair of corresponding angles can be represented by 42° less than three times the other. Find the corresponding angles.
Solution:
We know that the corresponding angles are equal.
Let one of the corresponding angles be x.
Then the other will be 3x – 42°.
Question 20.
In the given figure, ∠8 = 107°, what is these sum of the angles ∠2 and ∠4.
Solution:
Given ∠8 = 107°
∠2 = 107°
[∵ ∠8 and ∠2 are alternate exterior angles, ∵ ∠8 = ∠2]
