Question 1.
Observe the following pictures and find the other angles of the linear pair.
Solution:
(i) Given one angle 84°
∴ Other angle of the linear pair is 180° – 84° = 96°
(ii) One angle is given as 86°
Other angle of linear pair is 180° – 86° = 94°
(iii) Given one angle = 159°
Other angle of the linear pair = 180° – 159° = 21°

Question 1.
Observe the figure. There are two angles namely ∠PQR = 150° and ∠QPS = 30° Is all this pair of supplementary angles a linear pair? Discuss
Solution:
Given ∠PQR =150°
∠QPS = 30°
They are supplementary angles,
But they are not adjacent angles as they don’t have common vertex or common arm.
∴ They are not a linear pair.

Question 1.
What would happen to the angles if we add 3 or 4 or 5 rays on a line as given below?
Solution:
New adjacent angles are formed.
The new angles become smaller in measure. But their sum is 180° as it is a linear angle.

Question 1.
Can you justify the statement
∠AOB + ∠BOC + ∠COD + ∠DOE + ∠EOF + ∠FOA = 360°?
Solution:
We know that the sum of angles at a point is 360°
∠AOB + ∠BOC + ∠COD + ∠DOE + ∠EOF + ∠FOA = 360° as they are the sum of angles at the point ‘O’

Question 1.
Find the values of x.
Solution:
(i) m and n are parallel lines and l is the transversal.
When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, each pair of interior angles that lie on the same side of the transversal are supplementary
(ii) m and n are parallel line and l is the transversal.
When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, each pair of exterior angles that lie on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.
the same side of the transversal are supplementary.

x° = 180° – 132°
= 48°
∴ x = 48°
