MCQ
In the given figure, $AB \| CD$. If $\angle\text{AOC}=30^\circ$ and $\angle\text{OAB}=100^\circ$ then $\angle\text{OCD}=?$
  • $130^\circ$
  • B
    $150^\circ$
  • C
    $80^\circ$
  • D
    $100^\circ$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$130^\circ$
Construction: Through $O$, draw $OE \| AB \| CD$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{BAO}+\angle\text{EOA}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow100^\circ+\angle\text{EOA}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{EOA}=80^\circ$
So, $\angle\text{EOC}=\angle\text{EAO}-\angle\text{COA}=80^\circ-30^\circ=50^\circ$
Since $CD \| EO$
$\angle\text{OCD}+\angle\text{EOC}=1806^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{OCD}+50^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{OCD}=130^\circ$
