Question
In figure, lines AB and CD intersect at O. If $\angle\text{AOC}+\angle\text{BOE}=70^\circ$ and $\angle\text{BOD}=40^\circ,$ find $\angle\text{BOE}$ and reflex $\angle\text{COE}.$

Answer

In the figure, $\angle\text{AOC},\angle\text{BOE}$ and $\angle\text{COE} $ from a linear pair. Thus,$\angle\text{AOC}+\angle\text{BOE}+\angle\text{COE}=180^\circ$
It is given that $\angle\text{AOC}+\angle\text{BOE}=70^\circ,$ on substituting this value, we get:$70^\circ+\angle\text{COE}=180^\circ$
$\angle\text{COE}=180^\circ-70^\circ$
$\angle\text{COE}=110^\circ$
Thus, reflex $\angle\text{COE}=360^\circ-110^\circ$ Therefore, reflex $\angle\text{COE}=250^\circ.$
