Question 31 Mark
The following statements are true $(T)$ and which are false $(F)?$ Give reasons. Two lines perpendicular to the same line are perpendicular to each other.
Answer

The figure can be drawn as follows:


Here, $\text{l}\perp\text{n}$ and $\text{m}\perp\text{n}$ It is given that $\text{l}\perp\text{n},$ therefore, $\angle{1}=90^\circ\dots(\text{i})$
Similarly, we have $\text{m}\perp\text{n},$ therefore, $\angle{2}=90^\circ\dots(\text{ii})$
From $(i)$ and $(ii),$ we get: $\angle{1}=\angle{2}$
But these are the pair of corresponding angles.
Theorem states: If a transversal intersects two lines in such a way that a pair of correspondung angles is equal,
then the two lines are parallel. Thus, we can say that $l || m.$

Question 41 Mark
The following statements are true $(T)$ and which are false $(F)?$ Give reasons. If two lines are intersected by a transversal, then corresponding angles are equal.
Answer
The above statement holds good if the lines are parallel only.

Question 51 Mark
The following statements are true $(T)$ and which are false $(F)?$ Give reasons. Two lines parallel to the same line are parallel to each other.
Answer
The figure is given as follows:

It is given that $l || m$ and $m || n$ We need to show that $l || m$ We have $l || m,$ thus, corresponding angles should be equal. That is, $\angle{1}=\angle{2}$ Similarly, $\angle{3}=\angle{2}$ Therefore, $\angle{1}=\angle{3}$ But these are the pair of corresponding angles. Therefore, $l || m.$

Question 61 Mark
The following statements are true $(T)$ and which are false $(F)?$ If angles forming a linear pair are equal, then each of these angles is of measure $90^\circ .$
Answer
Let one of the angle in the linear pair be $x^\circ .$
Then, other angle also becomes equal to $x^\circ .$
Therefore, by the defination of linear pair,
we get: $x + x = 180^\circ$
$ 2x = 180^\circ $
$\text{x}=\frac{180^\circ}{2} x = 90^\circ $
Hence, if angles forming a linear pair are equal,
​​​​​​​then each of these angles is of measure $90^\circ .$

Question 71 Mark
The following statements are true $(T)$ and which are false $(F)?$ Give reasons. If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then alternate interior angles are equal.
Answer
Let $l$ and $m$ are two parallel lines. And transversal t intersects $l$ and $m$ making two pair of alternate interior angles, $\angle{1},\angle{2}$ and $\angle{3},\angle{4}.$

We need to prove that $\angle{1}=\angle{2}$ and $\angle{3}=\angle{4}.$ We have, $\angle{2}=\angle{5}$ [Vertically opposite angles] Again, $\angle{3}=\angle{6}$ [Corresponding angles] Hence, $\angle{1}=\angle{2}$ and $\angle{3}=\angle{4}.$

Question 81 Mark
The following statements are true $(T)$ and which are false $(F)?$ Angles forming a linear pair can both be acute angles.
Answer
Let us assume one of the angle in a linear pair be $x;$ Such that $x^\circ < 90^\circ ,$
that is, an acute angle.
Therefore, the other angle in the linear pair becomes $(180 - x)^\circ ,$ which clearly cannot be acute.

Question 91 Mark
The following statements are true $(T)$ and which are false $(F)?$ Give reasons. If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are equal.
Answer
Theoram states: If a transversal intersects two parallel lines then the pair of alternate interior angles is equal.
