From the figure
2x + 2y + 2z = 360°
⇒ x + y + z = 180°
x : y : z = 2 : 3 : 5
Sum of the terms of the ratio = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10

Question 2.
Find the value of x in the following figures.
i)

Solution:
From the figure
3x + 18= 180° - 93° (∵ linear pair )
3x + 18 = 87
3x = 87- 18 = 69
∴ x = 69/3 = 23
ii)

Solution:
From the figure
(x - 24)° + 29° + 296° = 360"
(∵ complete angle)
x + 301° = 360°
∴ x = 360° - 301° = 59°

iii)

Solution:
From the figure
2 + 3x = 62
(∵ vertically opposite angles)
3x = 62 - 2
∴ 3x = 60° ⇒ x = 60/3
∴ x = 20°

iv)

Solution:
From the figure
40 + (6x + 2) = 90°
(∵ complementary angles)
6x = 90° - 42°
6x = 48
x = 48/6= 8°

Solution:
Given that ∠AOC +∠BOE = 70°
∠BOD = 40°
∠AOC = 40°
(∵ ∠AOC, ∠BOD are vertically opposite angles)
∴ 40° + ∠BOE = 70°
⇒ ∠BOE = 70° - 40° = 30°
Also ∠AOC + ∠COE +∠BOE = 180°
( ∵ AB is a line)
⇒ 40° + ∠COE + 30° = 180°
⇒ ∠COE = 180° -70° = 110°
∴ Reflex ∠COE = 110°

Solution:
Given that XY and MN are lines.
∠POY = 90°
a : b = 2 : 3
From the figure a + b = 90°
Sum of the terms of the ratio a : b

∴ b = 3/5 x 90° = 54°
From the figure b + c = 180°
(∵ linear pair of angles)
54° + c = 180°
c = 180°-54° = 126°

∠PRQ + ∠PRT = 180° ......(2)
From (1) and (2)
∠PQR + ∠PQS = ∠PRQ + ∠PRT
But ∠PQR = ∠PRQ
So ∠PQS = ∠PRT
Hence proved.

Solution:
Given that x + y = w + z = k say
From the figure
x + y + z + w = 360°
(∵ Angle around a point)
Also x + y = z + w
∴ x + y = z + w = 360°/2
∴ x + y = z + w = 180°

OR

k + k = 360°
2k = 360°
k = 360/2
(i.e.) (x,y) and (z, w) are pairs of adjacent angles whose sum is 180°.
In other words (x, y) and (z, w) are linear pair of angles ⇒ AOB is a line.

Proof: From the figure
∠ROS = ∠QOS - ∠QOR .....(1)
∠ROS = ∠ROP - ∠POS .......(2)
Adding (1) and (2)
∠ROS + ∠ROS = ∠QOS - ∠QOR +∠ROP - ∠POS [ ∵ ∠QOR = ∠ROP = 90° given]
⇒ 2∠ROS = ∠QOS - ∠POS

In ∆GFE
∠GEF + ∠FGE + ∠EFG = 180°
36 + ∠FGE + 90° = 180°
∠FGE = 180° - 126° = 54°
∠AGE = ∠GFE + ∠GEF
(exterior angle in ∆GFE)
= 90°+ 36°= 126°

Draw a lipe l parallel to ST through R.
From the figure
a + 110° = 180° and c + 130 = 180°
[ ∵ Interior angles on the same side of the transversal]
∴ a = 180° -110° = 70°
c = 180° - 130° = 50°
Also a + b + c = 180° (angles at a point on a line)
70° + b + 50° = 180°
b = 180° - 120° = 60°
∴ ∠QRS = 60°

Also ∠1 = ∠3 = ∠5 = ∠7 ;
∠1 = ∠11 = ∠9 = ∠13 = ∠15
Similarly ∠2 = ∠4 = ∠6 = ∠8
Also ∠2 = ∠10 = ∠12 = ∠14 = ∠16

Solution:
From the figure 120° + x = 180°
(∠ exterior angles on the same side of the transversal)
∴ x = 180° - 120°
x = 60°
Also x = (3y + 6)
(∵ corresponding angles)
3y + 6 = 60°
3y = 60° - 6° = 54°
y = 54/3 = 18°
∴ x = 60°; y = 18°

Question 11.
From the figure find x and y.

Solution:
From the figure
52° + 90° + (3y + 5)° = 180°
(∵ interior angles of a triangle)
∴ 3y + 147 = 180°
⇒ 3y = 33°
⇒ y = 33/3 = 11°
Also x + 65° + 52° = 180°
(∠ interior angles on the same side of the transversal)
∴ x = 180° -117° = 63°

∴ 2x + 3x = 180°
5x= 180°
x = 180/5 = 36°
and y = 3x = 3 x 36 = 108°
For fig (ii)
2x + 15 = 3x- 20°

2x-3x = -20-15
- x = - 35
x = 35°
For fig (iii)
(4x - 23) + 3x = 180°,

∠2= 5/9x 180° = 100°
Also ∠1, ∠3, ∠5, ∠7 are all equal to 80°. Similarly ∠2, ∠4, ∠6, ∠8 are all equal to 100°.

(∵ interior angles on the same side of the transversal)
∴ 5x = 180° - 80°
x = 100/5= 20°
Now 3x = y (∠ alternate interior angles)
y = 3 x 20° = 60° .
And y + z = 180°
(∵ linear pair of angles)
∴ z = 180°-60° = lg0°

∠ 2x = 180° - 70°
x = 110°/2= 55-
Also 90° + x° + y° = 180°
[∵ interior angles of a triangle]
90° + 55° + y = 180°
y = 180° - 145° = 35°
And x° + z° = 180°
[∵ interior angles on the same side of a transversal]
55° + z = 180°
z = 180°-55° = 125°

b+ 116° = 180° ⇒ -b = 180°- 116° = 64°
[∠ interior angles on the same side]
∴ a + b = x = 76° + 64° = 140°

fig-(ii)
a = 35°, b = 65° [∠ alt. int. angles]
x = a + b = 35° + 65° = 100°

fig- (iii)
a + 35° = 180° ⇒ a = 145°
b + 75° = 180° ⇒ b = 105°

Given AS // BT
∠4 = ∠5 and SB bisects ∠AST.
∴ By problem
∠2 = ∠3 ......(1)
For the lines AS // BT
∠2 = ∠5 ( ∵alternate interior angles)
∴ In ΔBST
∠3 = ∠5 = ∠4
Hence ΔBST is equilateral triangle and each of its angle is equal to 60°.
∴∠3 = ∠2 = 60° [by eq. (1)]
Now ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180°
∠1 + 60° + 60° = 180°
[ ∵ angles at a point on a line]
∴∠1 = 180° - 120° = 60°

Solving (1) & (2)

y = 60/3= 20°
Substituting y = 20° in eq. (1)
x - 20° = 30°

∴ x = 50° and y = 20°

Question 6.
Find the values of x and y in the figure.

Solution:
From the figure y + 140° = 180°
(∵ linear pair of angles)

∠PQT + ∠PQR = 180°
[∵ linear pair of angles]
⇒ ∠RPQ = 180° - ∠SPR
= 180° - 135° = 45°
⇒ ∠PQR = 180° - ∠PQT
= 180°-110° = 70°
Now in APQR
∠RPQ + ∠PQR + ∠PRQ = 180°
[∵ angle sum property]

YO arid ZO are bisectors of ∠Y and ∠Z.
In ΔXYZ
∠X + ∠XYZ + ∠XZY = 180° .
62° + 54° + ∠XZY = 180°
⇒ ∠XZY = 180°- 116° = 64°
Also in Δ𝜏OYZ
∠OYZ = 1/2 ∠XYZ = 1/2 x 54° = 27°
(∵ YO is bisector of ∠XYZ)
∠OZY = 1/2 ∠XZY = 1/2 x 64° = 32
(∵ OZ is bisector of ∠XYZ)
And ∠OYZ + ∠OZY + ∠YOZ = 180°

( ∵ alternate interior angles)
Now in ΔCDE
∠C + ∠D + ∠E = 180°
(∵angle sum property, ACDE)
∴∠DCE + 53° + 35° = 180°
⇒ ∠DCE = 180° - 88° = 92°

∠TSQ = 75°
In ΔPRT ∠P + ∠R + ∠PTR = 180°
(∵angle sum property)
95° + 40° + ∠PTR = 180°
⇒ ∠PTR = 180° - 135° = 45°
Now ∠PTR = ∠STQ
(∵ vertically opposite angles)
In ΔSTQ ∠S + ∠Q + ∠STQ = 180°
(∵ angle sum property)
75° + ∠SQT + 45° = 180°
∴ ∠SQT = 180° - 120° = 60°

Solution:
Given that ∠B = 50°; ∠C = 70°
Angle between bisectors of exterior angles B and C is ∠.
From the figure
50° + 2x = 180°
70° + 2y = 180°
(∵ linear pair of angles)
∴ 2x= 180°-50°
2x= 130°
x = 130/2
= 65°
2y= 180°-70°
2y= 110°
x = 110°/2
= 55°
Now in ΔBOC
x + y + ∠ = 180° (∵ angle sum property)
65° + 55° + ∠ = 180°
z = 180° -120° = 60°

Solution:
Given that PQ ⊥ PS ; PQ // SR
∠SQR = 28°, ∠QRT = 65°
From the figure
∠QSR = x° (∵ alt. int. angles for the lines PQ // SR)
Also 65° = x + 28° (∵ ext. angles = sum of the opp. interior angles)
∴ x° = 65° - 28° = 37°
And x° + y° = 90°
[ ∵ PQ ⊥ PS and PQ // SR. ⇒ ∠P = ∠S]
37° + y = 90°
∴ y = 90° - 37° = 53°

Sum of the terms of the ratio
∠A : ∠B = 2 + 3 = 5
We know that ∠A + ∠B = ∠BCD

∠BCE = 102°
i) From the figure
102° + ∠BCA = 180°
(∵ linear pair of angles)
∴ ∠BCA = 180° - 102° = 78°

ii) ∠ADE + ∠CBD = 180°
(∵ interior angles on the same side of the transversal)
∠ADE + (78° + 35°) = 180°
(∵ ∠CBD = ∠BAC + ∠BCA)

In ΔABD
∠DAB + ∠ABD + ∠D = 180°
∠DAB + 108° + 45° = 180°
∠DAB = 180° - 153° = 27°

iv) In ΔADE
∠D + ∠A + ∠E = 180°
45° + ∠A + 40° = 180°
⇒ ∠A = 180° -85° = 95°
But ∠A = ∠DAB + 36° + ∠EAC
95° = 27°, + 36° + ∠EAC
∴ ∠EAC = 95° - 63° = 32°

Question 17.
Using information given in the figure, calculate the values of x and y.

Solution:
From the figure In ΔACB
34° + 62° + ∠ACB = 180°
(∵ angle sum property)
∴ ∠ACB = 180° - 96° = 84° .
And x + ∠ACB = 180°
(∵ linear pair of angles) .
∴ x + 84° = 180°
x = 180°-84° = 96°
(OR)
x = 34° + 62° = 96°
( ∵ x is exterior angle, ΔABC)
y = 24° + x°
= 24° + 96° = 120°
(∵ y is exterior angle, ΔDCE)
