Question

Ray PQ and ray PR are perpendicular to each other. Points B and A are in the interior and exterior of ∠QPR respectively. Ray PB and ray PA are perpendicular to each other.
Draw a figure showing all these rays and write –
i. A pair of complementary angles
ii. A pair of supplementary angles
iii. A pair of congruent angles.

Answer

i. Complementary angles:
∠RPQ = 90° [Ray PQ ⊥ ray PR]
∴ ∠RPB + ∠BPQ = 90° [Angle addition property]
∠RPB and ∠BPQ are pair of complementary angles
∠APB = 90° [Ray PA ⊥ ray PB]
∴ ∠APR + ∠RPB = 90°
∠APR and ∠RPB are pair of complementary angles.

ii. Supplementary angles:
∠APB + ∠RPQ = 90° + 90° = 180°
∴ ∠APB and ∠RPQ are a pair of supplementary angles.

iii. Congruent angles:
a. ∠APB = ∠RPQ [Each is of 90°]
b. ∠APB = ∠RPQ
∴ ∠APR + ∠RPB = ∠RPB + ∠BPQ [Angle addition property]
∴ ∠APR = ∠BPQ
∴ ∠APR ≅ ∠BPQ
