Question 14 Marks
Prove that the bisectors of a pair of vertically opposite angles are in the same straight line.
Answer

Given: Lines $AOB $and $COD $intersect at point $O $. Such that $\angle AOC =\angle BOD$. Also, $O E$ is the bisector $\angle AOC$ and $OF $is the bisector $\angle BOD$. To prove: $E O F$ is a straight line. $\angle AOD =\angle BOC =5 x \ldots$ (1) ( [vertically opposite angle] Also, $\angle AOD +\angle BOC$ [vertically opposite angle] $\Rightarrow 2 \angle AOE =2 \angle DOF \ldots$ (2) Now, $\angle AOD +\angle AOC +\angle BOC +\angle BOD =360^{\circ}$ [Sum of all angles around a point is $360^{\wedge} \backslash circ$ ] $\Rightarrow 2 \angle AOD +2 \angle AOE +2 \angle DOF =360^{\circ}$ $\Rightarrow \angle AOD +\angle AOE +\angle DOF =180^{\circ}$ From this we conclude that $EOF $is a straight line.

Question 24 Marks
Define complementary angles.
Answer
Complementary Angles: Two angles, the sum of whose measures is $90^{\circ}$, are called complementary angles. Thus, angles $\angle BAX$ and $\angle XAC$ are complementary angles. If $x + y =90^{\circ}$

Example 1: Angles of measure $50^{\circ}$ and $40^{\circ}$ are complementary angles, because $50^{\circ}+40^{\circ}=90^{\circ}$ Example 2: Angles of measure $60^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$ are complementary angles, because $60^{\circ}+30^{\circ}=90^{\circ}$

Question 34 Marks
In figure, Line $l_1$ and $l_2$ intersect at $O$, forming angles as shown in the figure. If $x = 45$, find the value of $y, z$ and $u.$
Answer
Given $x = 45^\circ$
$\therefore z = x = 45^\circ$ [Vertically opposite angle]
Now, $z + u = 180^\circ$ [Linear pair]
$\Rightarrow 45^\circ + u = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow u = 135^\circ$
Also, $x + y = 180^\circ$ [Linear pair]
$\Rightarrow y = 180^\circ - x = 180^\circ - 45^\circ = 135^\circ$
$\therefore y = 135^\circ$

Question 44 Marks
In figure, rays $OA, OB, OC, OD$ and $OE $have the common end point $O$. Show that $\angle\text{AOB}+\angle\text{BOC}+\angle\text{COD}+\angle\text{DOE}+\angle\text{EOA}=360^\circ.$
Answer
Given that $OA, OB, OD$ and $OE$ have the common end point $O$. A ray opposite to $OA $is drawn. Since $\angle\text{AOB},\angle\text{BOF}$ are linear pairs, $\angle\text{AOB}+\angle\text{BOF}+180^\circ$ $\angle\text{AOB}+\angle\text{BOC}+\angle\text{COF}=180^\circ\dots(\text{i})$ Also, $\angle\text{AOE}$ and $\angle\text{EOF}$ are linear pairs $\angle\text{AOE}+\angle\text{EOF}=180^\circ$ $\angle\text{AOE}+\angle\text{DOF}+\angle\text{DOE}=180^\circ\dots(\text{ii})$ By adding (i) and (ii) equations we get: $\angle\text{AOB}+\angle\text{BOC}+\angle\text{COF}+\angle\text{AOE}+\angle\text{DOF}+\angle\text{DOE}=180^\circ$ $\angle\text{AOB}+\angle\text{BOC}+\angle\text{COD}+\angle\text{DOE}+\angle\text{EOA}=180^\circ$ Hence proved.

Question 64 Marks
In figure, find $x.$ Further find $\angle\text{BOC},\angle\text{COD}$ and $\angle\text{AOD}.$
Answer
Since $\angle\text{AOD}$ and $\angle\text{BOD}$ form a line pair,
$\angle\text{AOD}+\angle\text{BOD}=180^\circ$
$\angle\text{AOD}+\angle\text{BOC}+\angle\text{COD}=180^\circ$
Given that, $\angle\text{AOD}=(\text{x}+10)^\circ,\angle\text{COD}=\text{x}^\circ,\angle\text{BOC}=(\text{x}+20)^\circ$
$(\text{x}+10)+\text{x}+(\text{x}+20)=180$
$3\text{x}+30=180$
$3\text{x}=180-30$
$3\text{x}=\frac{150}{3}$
$\text{x}=50$ Therefore, $\angle\text{AOD}=(\text{x}+10)$
$=50+10=60$
$\angle\text{COD}=\text{x}=50^\circ$
$\angle\text{COD}=(\text{x}+20)$
$=50+20=70$
$\angle\text{AOD}=60^\circ,\angle\text{COD}=50^\circ,\angle\text{BOC}=70^\circ$

Question 114 Marks
In figure, $\angle\text{AOF}$ and $\angle\text{FOG}$ from a linear pair. If $\angle\text{EOB}=\angle\text{FOC}=90^\circ$ and $\angle\text{DOC}=\angle\text{FOG}=\angle\text{AOB}=30^\circ.$

$i.$ Find the measure of $\angle\text{FOE},\angle\text{COB}$ and $\angle\text{DOE}.$
$ii.$ Name all the right angles.
$iii.$ Name three pairs of adjacent complementary angles.
$iv.$ Name three pairs of adjacent supplementary angles.
$v.$ Name three pairs of adjacent angles
Answer
$i. \angle\text{FOE}=\text{x},\angle\text{DOE}=\text{y}$ and $\angle\text{BOC}=\text{z}$
Since $\angle\text{AOF},\angle\text{FOG}$ is a linear pair
$\angle\text{AOF}+30=180$
$\angle\text{AOF}=180-30$
$\angle\text{AOF}=150$
$\angle\text{AOB}+\angle\text{BOC}+\angle\text{COD}+\angle\text{DOE}+\angle\text{EOF}=150$
$30 + z + 30 + y + x = 150$
$x + y + z =150 - 30 - 30$
$x + y + z = 90 ...(1)$
$\angle\text{FOC}=90^\circ$
$\angle\text{FOE}+\angle\text{EOD}+\angle\text{DOC}=90^\circ$
$x + y + 30 = 90$
$x + y = 90 - 30$
$x + y = 60 ...(2)$
Substituting $(2)$ in $(1)$
$x + y + z = 90$
$60 + z = 90$
$z = 90 - 60 = 30$
Given $BOE = 90$
$\angle\text{BOC}+\angle\text{COD}+\angle\text{DOE}=90^\circ$
$30 + 30 + DOE = 90$
$DOE = 90 - 60 = 30$
$DOE = x = 30$
We also know that,
$x + y = 60$
$y = 60 - x$
$y = 60 - 30$
$y = 30$
Thus we have $\angle\text{FOE}=30,\angle\text{COB}=30$ and $\angle\text{DOE}=30$
$ii.$ Right angles are:
$\angle\text{DOG},\angle\text{COF},\angle\text{BOF},\angle\text{AOD}.$
$iii.$ Adjacent complementary angles are:
$(\angle\text{AOB},\angle\text{BOD});(\angle\text{AOC},\angle\text{COD});(\angle\text{BOC},\angle\text{COE}).$
$iv.$ Adjacent supplementary angles are:
$(\angle\text{AOB},\angle\text{BOG});(\angle\text{AOC},\angle\text{COG});(\angle\text{AOD},\angle\text{DOG}).$
$v.$ Adjacent angles are:
$(\angle\text{BOC},\angle\text{COD});(\angle\text{COD},\angle\text{DOE});(\angle\text{DOE},\angle\text{EOF}).$

Question 124 Marks
Prove that if the two arms of an angle are perpendicular to the two arms of another angle, then the angles are either equal or supplementary.
Answer

Consider be angles $AOB$ and $ACB.$
Given $OA$ perpendicular to $AO$, also $OB$ perpendicular to $BO$.
To Prove:
$\angle\text{AOB}+\angle\text{ACB}=180^\circ$
Proof:
In a quadrilateral $=\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{O}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=360^\circ$[Sum of angles of quadrilateral is $360]$
$\Rightarrow 180 + O + B + C = 360$
$\Rightarrow O + C = 360 - 180$
Hence,
$AOB + ACB = 180 ...(1)$
Also,
$B + ACB = 180$
$\Rightarrow ACB = 180 - 90 = ACES = 90^\circ ...(2)$
From $(1)$ and $(2), ACB = A0B = 90$
Hence, the angles are equal as well as supplementary.

Question 144 Marks
In Figure, if a is greater than b by one third of a right angle. Find the value of $a$ and $b.$
Answer
Since $a$ and $b$ are linear $a+b=180 a=180-b \ldots(1)$
From given data, $a$ is greater than $b$ by one third of a right angle $a=b+\frac{90}{3} a=b+30 a-b=30 \ldots (2)$
Equating (1) and (2) $180-b=b+30180-30=2 b$
$b=\frac{150}{2} b=75 \text { From (1) }$
$a=180-b a=180-75 a=105$
Hence the values of $a$ and $b$ are $105^{\circ}$ and $75^{\circ}$ respectively.

Question 164 Marks
The opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel. If one angle of the quadrilateral is $60^\circ $. Find the other angles.
Answer

Given $AB \| CD AD \| BC$ Since $AB \| CD$ and $AD$ is the transversal
Therefore, $A + D = 180$ [Co-interior angles are supplementary] $60 + D = 180 D = 180 - 60 D = 120$
Now, $AD \| BC$ and $AB$ is the transversal $A + B = 180$ [Co-interior angles are supplementary]
$60 + B = 180 B = 180 - 60 = 120$
Hence, $\angle\text{A}=\angle\text{C}=60^\circ$ and $\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{D}=120^\circ$

Question 194 Marks
In figure, $OP, OQ, OR$ and $OS$ are four rays. Prove that: $\angle\text{POQ}+\angle\text{QOR}+\angle\text{SOR}+\angle\text{POS}=360^\circ$
Answer
Given that $OP, OQ, OR$ and $OS$ are four ray.
You need to produce any of the ray $OP, OQ, OR$ and $OS$ backwards to a point in the figure.
Let us produce ray $OQ$ backwards to a point $T.$ So that $TOQ$ is a line.
Ray $OP$ stands on the $TOQ$ Since $\angle\text{TOP},\angle\text{POQ}$ is a linear pair $\angle\text{TOP}+\angle\text{POQ}=180^\circ\dots(1)$ Similarly, Ray $OS$ stands on the line $TOQ$ $\angle\text{TOS}+\angle\text{SOQ}=180^\circ\dots(2)$ But $\angle\text{SOQ}=\angle\text{SOR}+\angle\text{QOR}\dots{(3)}$
So, eq. $(2)$ becomes $\angle\text{TOS}+\angle\text{SOR}+\angle\text{OQR}=180^\circ$
Now, adding $(1)$ and $(3)$ you get: $\angle\text{TOP}+\angle\text{POQ}+\angle\text{TOS}+\angle\text{SOR}+\angle\text{QOR}=360^\circ$
$\angle\text{TOP}+\angle\text{TOS}=\angle\text{POS}$ Equation $(4)$ becomes $\angle\text{POQ}+\angle\text{QOR}+\angle\text{SOR}+\angle\text{POS}=360^\circ$

Question 204 Marks
In figure, ray $OS$ stand on a line $POQ$. Ray $OR$ and ray $OT$ are angle bisectors of $\angle\text{POS}$ and $\angle\text{SOQ}$ respectively. If $\angle\text{POS}=\text{x},$ find $\angle\text{ROT}.$
Answer
Given, Ray $OS$ stand on a line $POQ$ Ray $OR$ and Ray $OT$ are angle bisectors of $\angle\text{POS}$ and $\angle\text{SOQ}$ respectively. $\angle\text{POS}=\text{x}$
$\angle\text{POS}$ and $\angle\text{SOQ}$ is linear pair $\angle\text{POS}+\angle\text{QOS}=180^\circ$
$x + QOS = 180 QOS = 180 - x$
Now, ray or bisector $POS$
$\angle\text{ROS}=\frac{1}{2}\angle\text{POS}$
$=\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
$\text{ROS}=\frac{\text{x}}{2}$ [Since $POS = x$] Similarly ray $OT$ bisector $QOS$
$\angle\text{TOS}=\frac{1}{2}\angle\text{QOS}$
$=\frac{(180-\text{x})}{2}$ [$QOS = 180 - x$] $=90-\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
Hence, $\angle\text{ROT}=\angle\text{ROS}+\angle\text{ROT}$
$=\frac{\text{x}}{2}+90-\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
$=90$
$\angle\text{ROT}=180^\circ$

$\angle\text{2}=\angle\text{4}=72^\circ$
$\angle\text{6}=\angle\text{7}=108^\circ$
$\angle\text{5}=\angle\text{8}=72^\circ$
