Exercise 8.4

1. In Fig. 8.105, AB CD and ∠1 and ∠2 are in the ratio 3:2 Determine all angles form 1 to 8.


Solution

Let ∠1 = 3x and ∠2 = 2x
∠1and∠2 are linear pair of angle
Now, ∠1and∠2
 3x + 2x = 180
 5x = 180
 x = 180 / 5
 x = 36 ∠1 = 3x = 108°,∠2 = 2x = 72°
We know, Vertically opposite angles are equal ∠1=∠3=108°,
∠2=∠4=72°,
 ∠6=∠7=108°,
 ∠5=∠8=72°
We also know, corresponding angles are equal ∠1=∠5=108°,
∠2=∠6=72°

2. In Fig. 8.106, l, m and n are parallel lines intersected by transversal p at X, Y and Z respectively. Find ∠1, ∠2 and ∠3.  
Solution

From the given figure :
∠3+∠m YZ=180° [Linear pair]
 ∠3=180° –120°
∠3=60°
Now line l parallel to m
∠1=∠3 [Corresponding angles] ∠1=60°
Also m parallel to n,
 ∠2=120° [Alternative interior angle]
Hence, ∠1=∠3=60°

 3. In Fig. 8.107, AB || CD || EF and GH || KL. Find the ∠HKL.



Solution 

Produce LK to meet GF at N.
Now, alternative angles are equal
∠CHG =∠HGN = 60
°
∠HGN =∠KNF = 60°    [Corresponding angles]
Hence, ∠KNG =180 - 60 = 120

 ∠GNK =∠AKL =120°  [Corresponding angles]
∠AKH =∠KHD =25°         [alternative angles]
Therefore, ∠HKL =∠AKH+∠AKL = 25+120 =145
°

4. In Fig. 8.108, show that AB || EF.


Solution 

Produce EF to intersect AC at K.
Now, ∠DCE+∠CEF=35+145=180°
Therefore, EF || CD (Since Sum of Co-interior angles is 180) —–(1)
Now, ∠BAC=∠ACD=57°
BA || EF [Alternative angles are equal] —–(2)
From (1) and (2)
AB || EF [Since, Lines parallel to the same line are parallel to each other]
Hence proved.

5. In Fig. 8.109, if AB || CD and CD || EF, find ∠ACE. 

Solution

Since EF || CD
Therefore, ∠EFC + ∠ECD = 180° [co-interior angles are supplementary]
⇒ ∠ECD = 180 - 130 = 50°
Also BA || CD
⇒ ∠BAC = ∠ACD = 70 [alternative angles]
But, ∠ACE + ∠ECD = 70°
⇒ ∠ACE = 70 - 50 = 20°

6. In Fig. 8.110, PQ || AB and PR || BC. If ∠QPR = 102°, determine ∠ABC. Give reasons.

Solution

AB is produce to meet PR at K
Since PQ || AB
∠QPR=∠BKR=102°    [corresponding angles]
Since PR || BC
∠RKB+∠CBK=180°   [ Since Corresponding angles are supplementary]
⇒ ∠CKB=180 -102=78
∴ ∠CKB=78°

7. In Fig. 8.111, state which lines are parallel and why.


Solution 

Vertically opposite angles are equal.
⇒ ∠EOC = ∠DOK=100°
∠DOK = ∠ACO = 100°
Here, two lines EK and CA cut by a third line and the corresponding angles to it are equal Therefore, EK || AC.

8. In Fig. 8.112, if l || m, n || p and ∠1 = 85°, find ∠2.

Solution

Corresponding angles are equal
⇒ ∠1=∠3=85°
By using the property of co-interior angles are supplementary
∠2+∠3=180°
⇒ ∠2+55=180
⇒ ∠2=180-85
⇒ ∠2=95°

9. If two straight lines are perpendicular to the same line, prove that they are parallel to each other.

 Solution

Given m perpendicular t and l perpendicular to t.
∠1=∠2=90°
Since,  I and m are two lines and it is transversal and the corresponding angles are equal
L || M
Hence, proved. 

 10. Prove that if the two arms of an angle are perpendicular to the two arms of another angle, then the angles are either equal or supplementary.

 Solution 

Consider angles AOB and ACB.
Given,
OA perpendicular to AO,  also OB perpendicular to BO.
To prove: ∠AOB+∠ACB=180° (or) ∠AOB+∠ACB=180°
Proof :
In a quadrilateral = ∠A+∠O+∠B+∠C=360°
[Sum of angles of quadrilateral is 360]
⇒ 180+ O +B + C = 360°
⇒ O+ C = 360 –180
Hence AOB + ACB = 180°     —–(1)
Also, B + ACB = 180
⇒ ACB =180 – 90 = ACES = 90°    —–(2)
From (i) and (ii), ACB = A0B = 90
Hence, the angles are equal as well as supplementary.

 11. In Fig. 8.113, lines AB and CD are parallel and P is any point as shown in the figure. Show that ∠ABP + ∠ CDP = ∠DPB.


Solution

Given that, AB ||CD
Let EF be the parallel line to AB and CD which passes through P.
It can be seen from the figure.
Alternative angles are equal.
∠ABP=∠BPF
Alternative angles are equal
∠CDP=∠DPF
ABP+∠CDP=∠BPF+∠DPF
∠ABP+∠CDP=∠DPB
Hence, proved.

AB parallel to CD, P is any point
To prove: ∠ABP+∠BPD+∠CDP=360°
Construction : Draw EF || AB passing through P


Proof : Since, AB || EF and AB || CD.
Therefore, EF || CD
[Lines parallel to the same line are parallel to each other)
∠ABP+∠EPB=180°  [Sum of co-interior angles is 180)
⇒ ∠EPD+∠COP=180° - (1)  (Sum of co-interior angles is 180°)
⇒ ∠EPD+∠CDP=180° - (2)
By adding (1) end (2)
∠ABP+∠EPB+∠EPD+∠CDP = (180+180)° 
⇒ ∠ABP+∠EPB+∠COP = 360°

12. In Fig. 8.114, AB || CD and P is any point shown in the figure. Prove that:
∠ABP + ∠BPD + ∠CDP = 360°



Solution

13. Two unequal angles of a parallelogram are in the ratio 2 : 3. Find all its angles in degrees.


Solution

Let A = 2x and B = 3x
Now, A+B = 180  [Co-interior angles are supplementary]
2x  + 3x = 180   [AD II BC and AB is the transversal)
⇒ 5x = 180
⇒ x = 180/5
⇒ x = 36
Therefore, A = 2×6 = 72
b = 3×36 = 108
Now, A = C = 72      [Opposite side angles of a parallelogram are equal)
B = D = 108

14. In each of the two lines is perpendicular to the same line, what kind of lines are they to each other?

Solution

The figure can be drawn as follows:

Here, l⟂n and m⟂n.
We need to find the relation between lines l and m
It is given that l⟂n, therefore,
∠1 = 90° --- (i)
Similarly, we have m⟂n, therefore,
∠2 = 90° --- (i) (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get:
∠1 = 2
But these are the pair of corresponding angles.
Theorem states: If a transversal intersects two lines in such a way that a pair of corresponding angles is equal, then the two lines are parallel.
Thus, we can say that l∥m.
Hence, the lines are parallel to each other.

15. In Fig. 8.115, ∠1 = 60° and ∠2 = (2/3) rd of a right angle. Prove that l∥m.

Solution

The figure is given as follow:

16. In Fig. 8.116, if l || m || n and ∠1 = 60°, find ∠2.
Solution

Since l parallel to m and p is the transversal
Therefore, Given: l||m||n ∠l = 60°
To find ∠2
∠1=∠3=60° [Corresponding angles]
Now, ∠3and∠4 are linear pair of angles ∠3+∠4=180°
60 + ∠4 = 180
∠4 = 180 - 60
⇒ 120
Also, m||n and P is the transversal
Therefore ∠4 = ∠2 =120 [Alternative interior angle]
Hence 2 ∠2 = 120

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

Solution

Here, l⟂n and m⟂n.
 We need to prove that l∥m
It is given that l⟂n, therefore,
∠1 = 90° ---(i)
Similarly, we have m⟂n, therefore,
∠2 = 90° --- (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get:
∠1 = ∠2
But these are the pair of corresponding angles.
Theorem states: If a transversal intersects two lines in such a way that a pair of corresponding angles is equal, then the two lines are parallel.
Thus, we can say that l∥m.

18. The opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel. If one angle of the quadrilateral is 60°, find the other angles.


Solution



Given AB || CD
AD|| BC
Since AB || CD and AD is the transversal
Therefore, A + D = 180 (Co-interior angles are supplementary)
60 + D = 180
D = 180 - 60
D = 120
Now. AD || BC and AB is the transversal
A + B = 180 (Co-interior angles are supplementary)
60 +B = 180
B = 180 - 60
= 120 Hence, ∠A=∠C=60° and∠B=∠D=120°

19. Two lines AB and CD intersect at O. If ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD = 270°, find the measures of ∠AOC, ∠COB, ∠BOD and ∠DOA.

 Solution


 Given : ∠AOC+∠COB+∠BOD=270°
 To find : ∠AOC,∠COB,∠BOD,∠DOA
Here, ∠AOC+∠COB+∠BOD=270° [ Complete angle]
 270 + AOD = 360
 AOD = 360 - 270
 AOD = 90
Now, AOD + BOD = 180 [Linear pair]
90 + BOD = 180
 BOD = 180 – 90
BOD = 90
AOD = BOC = 90 [Vertically opposite angles]
BOD = AOC = 90 [Vertically opposite angles]

 20. In Fig. 8.117, p is a transversal to lines m and n, ∠2 = 120° and ∠5 = 60°. Prove that m || n.

 Solution

Given that
∠2=120° and ∠5=60°
To prove,
∠2+∠1=180° [ Linear pair ] 120+∠1=180 ∠1=180−120 ∠1=60°
Since ∠1=∠5=60°
Therefore, m||n [As pair of corresponding angles are equal]

 21. In Fig. 8.118, transversal l intersects two lines m and n, ∠4 = 110° and ∠7 = 65°. Is m || n ?
 Solution

Given :
∠4=110° and ∠7=65°
To find : Is m||n
Here. ∠7=∠5=65° [Vertically opposite angle]
Now. ∠4+∠5=110+65=175°
Therefore, m is not parallel to n as the pair of co interior angles is not supplementary.

22.  Which pair of lines in Fig. 8.119 are parallel ? Given reasons.

 Solution

∠A+∠B=115+65=180°
Therefore, AB || BC [As sum of co interior angles are supplementary]
∠B+∠C=65+115=180° 
Therefore, AB || CD [As sum of interior angles are supplementary]


23. If I, m, n are three lines such that I|| m and n perpendicular to l, prove that n perpendicular to m.

Solution

The figure can be drawn as follows:
Given,

n perpendicular to l
To prove: n perpendicular to m
Since l || m and n intersects
∴ ∠1=∠2 [Corresponding angles]
But, ∠1 = 90
 ∠2=90°
Hence n is perpendicular to m.

Also, BX || EF and DE is the transversal
DMX = DEF [Corresponding angles] - (ii)
From (i) and (ii) ∠ABC=∠DEF

To prove: ∠ABC+∠DEF=180°
Construction: Produce BC to intersect DE at M
Proof :
 Since AB || EM and BL is the transversal
∠ABC=∠EML [Corresponding angle] - (i)
Also,
EF || ML and EM is the transversal
By the property of co-interior angles are supplementary
∠DEF+∠EML=180° ---(ii)
From (i) and (ii),
Therefore, ∠DEF+∠ABC=180°
