If $\triangle\text{ABC}$ is an isosceles triangle with AB = AC and $\angle\text{B} = 65^\circ,$ find $\angle\text{A}.$
  • A
    70º
  • B
    50º
  • C
    60º
  • D
    None of these
Answer
  1. 50º
    Solution:
    In isosceles triangle ABC
    AB = AC (Given)
    Therefore $\angle\text{B} = \angle\text{C} = 65^\circ$ (angles opposite to equal side are equal).
    So, by applying angle sum property i.e $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ,$
    $\angle\text{A} + 65^\circ + 65^\circ = 180^\circ$
    $\angle\text{A} = 180^\circ - 130^\circ$
    $\angle\text{A} = 50^\circ$

If the measures of angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 3 : 4 : 5, what is the measure of the smallest angle of the triangle?
  • A
    30º
  • B
    25º

  • D
    60º
Answer
  1. 45º
    Solution:
    The measures of angles of a triangle are in ratio 3: 4: 5.
    Let the angles be 3x, 4x and 5x.
    In any triangle, sum of all angles = 180º
    ⇒ 3x + 4x + 5x = 180º
    ⇒ 12x = 180º
    ⇒ x = 15º
    So, smallest angle = 3 × 15º = 45º

    $\triangle\text{ABC}\cong\triangle\text{FDE}$
    $\Rightarrow\text{AB}=\text{FD}=5\text{cm}$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{D}=40^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}=\angle\text{F}=80^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{C}=\angle\text{E}=60^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\text{DF}=\text{FD}=5\text{cm}$ and $\angle\text{E}=60^\circ$
    Hence, correct option is (c).

    Solution:
    $\angle\text{PBC} = \angle\text{QCD}$ (Corresponding angles, $\text{OP || CQ}$ and BC is transverse)
    $⇒\angle\text{PBC} = 70^\circ$
    Now, $\angle\text{PBA} + \angle\text{ABC} = \angle\text{PBC}$
    $⇒20^\circ+\angle\text{ABC}=70^\circ$
    $⇒\angle\text{ABC}=50^\circ$
    In $\triangle\text{ABC},$
    $\angle\text{ABC} + \angle\text{BAC} + \angle\text{ACB} = 180^\circ \ ...\ (\text{i})$
    Now, $\angle\text{ABC} + \angle\text{BAC} = 50^\circ$ (isosceles $\triangle$)
    And, $\angle\text{ACB} = 180^\circ - (70^\circ + \text{x})$
    From (i),
    50º + 50º + 180º - (70º + x) = 180º
    Hence x = 30º

In Fig. ABC is a triangle in which $\angle\text{B}=2\angle\text{C}.$ D is a point on side BC such that AD bisects $\angle\text{BAC}$ and $\text{AB}=\text{CD}.$ Be is the bisector of $\angle\text{B}.$ The measure of $\angle\text{BAC}$ is:
  • A
    72º
  • B
    95º
  • C
    73º
  • D
    74º
Answer
  1. 72º
    Solution:

    $\angle\text{ABE}=\angle\text{EBC}$ $($EBC is bisector of $\angle\text{B})$
    and $\angle\text{C}=\frac{\angle\text{B}}{2}$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{EBC}=\angle\text{ECB}$
    So $\triangle\text{EBC}$ is isosceles triangle.
    $\Rightarrow\text{EB}=\text{EC}\ ....(1)$
    Now Consider $\triangle\text{ABE}$ and $\triangle\text{DCE}$
    $\text{AB}=\text{DC}$ (Given)
    $\text{BE}=\text{CE}$ [From (1)]
    $\angle\text{ABE}=\angle\text{DCE}$ (From above data)
    So $\triangle\text{ABE}\cong\triangle\text{DCE}$ by SAS property
    $\Rightarrow\text{AE}=\text{DE}$
    $\angle\text{BAE}=\angle\text{CDE}=\angle\text{A}$
    Now consider $\triangle\text{AED},$
    $\text{AE}=\text{DE}$ (above proved)
    $\Rightarrow\triangle\text{AED}$ is isosceles triangle
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{EAD}=\angle\text{EDA}=\frac{\angle\text{A}}{2}$ $($AD is Bisector of $\angle\text{A})\ ....(2)$
    Now, consider $\triangle\text{ABC},$
    $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}+2\angle\text{C}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ(\angle\text{B}=2\angle\text{C)}$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}+3\angle\text{C}=180^\circ\ .....(3)$
    Consider $\triangle\text{ADE},$
    $\Rightarrow\frac{\angle\text{A}}{2}+\angle\text{ADC}+\angle\text{}\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\frac{\angle\text{A}}{2}+(\angle\text{EDA}+\angle\text{CDE})+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\frac{\angle\text{A}}{2}+\frac{\angle\text{A}}{2}+\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{}A+\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow2\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ\ .....(4)$
    Right hand side of equations (3) and (4) are equal, hence Left hand side.
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}+3\angle\text{C}=2\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}=2\angle\text{C}$
    Substituting in equation (3),
    $2\angle\text{C}+3\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow5\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{C}=36^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}=2\times36^\circ=72^\circ$
    Hence, correct option is (a).

In $\triangle\text{ABC},\ \angle\text{A} = 50^\circ,\ \angle\text{B} = 60^\circ.$ Find the longest side of the triangle?
  • A
    BC
  • B
    AB
  • C
    Cannot be determined
  • D
    CA
Answer
  1. AB
    Solution:
    By angle sum property, we have,
    $\angle\text{A} + \angle\text{B} + \angle\text{C} = 180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow 50^\circ + 60^\circ + \angle\text{C} = 180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\ \angle\text{C} = 180^\circ - (50^\circ+ 60^\circ) = 70^\circ$
    Therefore, $\angle\text{C}$ is the largest angle in the triangle and the side opposite to it i.e. AB is the longest side.

  • A
    70°
  • B
    None of these
  • C
    50°
  • D
    60°
Answer
  1. 60°
    Solution:
    In $\triangle\text{ABC}, \ \text{AB} = \text{AC}$
    $⇒ \angle\text{ABC} = \angle\text{ACB}$
    Also, $\angle\text{ACD}=120^\circ$
    $⇒ \angle\text{ACB} = 180^\circ- \angle\text{ACD}$ (Linear pair)
    $⇒ \angle\text{ACB} = 180^\circ- 120^\circ = 60^\circ$
    $⇒ \angle\text{ABC} = 60^\circ$
    By using angle sum property, we have
    $\angle\text{ABC} + \angle\text{ACB} + \angle\text{BAC} = 180^\circ$
    $60^\circ + 60^\circ+ \angle\text{A} = 180^\circ$
    or, $\angle\text{A} = 180^\circ - 120^\circ= 60^\circ$

  • D
    x + y + 360º
Answer
  1. x + y - 180
    Solution:
    In the given figure, $\angle\text{ABF}+\angle\text{ABC}=180^\circ$ (Linear pair of angles)
    $∴\text{x}^\circ+\angle\text{ABC}=180^\circ$
    $⇒\angle\text{ABC}=180^\circ−\text{x}°...\ (\text{i})$
    Also, $\angle\text{ACG}+\angle\text{ACB}=180^\circ$ (Linear pair of angles)
    $∴\text{y}′+\angle\text{ACB}=180^\circ$
    $⇒\angle\text{ACB}=180^\circ−\text{y}′\ ...\ \text{(ii)}$
    Also, $\angle\text{BAC}=\angle\text{DAE}=\text{z}° \ ....\ \text{(iii)}$ (Vertically opposite angles)
    In $\triangle\text{ABC}$
    $\angle\text{BAC}+\angle\text{ABC}+\angle\text{ACB}=180^\circ$ (Angle sum property)
    $∴\text{z}^\circ+180−\text{x}^\circ+180^\circ−\text{y}^\circ=180^\circ$ [Using (1), (2) and (3)]
    $⇒ \text{z} = \text{x} + \text{y} – 180$

    Solution:
    $\triangle\text{ACO}$
    $\angle\text{ACO}+\angle\text{COA}+\angle\text{COA}=180^\circ$
    Now, $\angle\text{OAC}=180^\circ-\text{x}^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow80^\circ+40^\circ+180^\circ-\text{x}^\circ=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\text{x}^\circ=120^\circ$
    $\angle\text{BOD}=\angle\text{COA}=40^\circ$ (Opposite angles)

    $\angle\text{BOC}=180^\circ-\Big(90^\circ-\frac{\angle\text{B}}{2}+90^\circ-\frac{\angle\text{C}}{2}\Big)$
    $=\ 180^\circ-\Big(180^\circ-\frac{\angle\text{B}}{2}-\frac{\angle\text{C}}{2}\Big)$
    $=\frac{\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}}{2}$
    $=\frac{180^\circ+\text{x}^\circ}{2}$

Answer
  1. 105º
    Solution:
    Join AC. We get two isosceles triangles. $\triangle\text{ABC}$ and $\triangle\text{ACD}.$
    In $\triangle\text{ABC},\ \angle\text{ABC}= 108^\circ$
    $\therefore\angle\text{BAC} = \angle\text{BCA} = \frac{(180^\circ -108^\circ)}{2} = \frac{72^\circ}{2} = 36^\circ$
    In $\triangle\text{ACD},\ \angle\text{ADC}= 42^\circ$
    $\therefore\angle\text{DAC} = \angle\text{DCA} = \frac{(180^\circ -42^\circ)}{2} = \frac{138^\circ}{2} = 69^\circ$
    Now, $\angle\text{BCD} = \angle\text{BCA} + \angle\text{DCA} = 36^\circ + 69^\circ = 105^\circ$

In a $\triangle\text{ABC},$ if $3\angle\text{A}=4\angle\text{B}=6\angle\text{C}$ then A : B : C = ?
  • A
    4 : 3 : 2
  • B
    6 : 4 : 3
  • C
    2 : 3 : 4
  • D
    3 : 4 : 6
Answer
  1. 3 : 4 : 6
    Solution:
    In the given figure, $\angle\text{ACB}+\angle\text{ACD}=180^\circ$ (Linear pair of angles)
    $∴$ 5yº + 7yº = 180º
    ⇒ 12yº = 180º
    ⇒ y = 15
    In $\triangle\text{ABC}$
    $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{ACB}=180^\circ$ (Angle sum property)
    $∴$ 3yº + xº + 5yº = 180º
    ⇒ xº + 8yº = 180º
    ⇒ xº + 8 × 15º = 180º
    ⇒ xº + 120º = 180º
    ⇒ xº = 180º − 120º = 60º
    Thus, the value of x is 60º.
    Hence the correct answer is 3 : 4 : 6

Answer
  1. 360º
    Solution:
    We have:
    $\angle1+\angle\text{BAE}=180^\circ\ ...\ \text{(i)}$
    $\angle2+\angle\text{CBF}=180^\circ ...\ \text{(ii)}$
    $\angle\text{3}+\angle\text{ACD}=180^\circ ...\ \text{(iii)}$
    Adding (i),(ii) and (iii), we get:
    $(\angle1+\angle2+\angle3)+(\angle\text{BAE}+\angle\text{CBF}+\angle\text{ACD})=540^\circ$
    $⇒180^\circ+\angle\text{BAE}+\angle\text{CBF}+\angle\text{ACD}=540^\circ$ $ [∵ \angle1+\angle2+\angle3=180^\circ]$
    $⇒\angle\text{BAE}+\angle\text{CBF}+\angle\text{ACD}=360^\circ.$

  • C
    110º
  • D
    80º
Answer
  1. 40º
    Solution:
    Since, It is given that PQ = QR, then $\angle\text{Q} = \angle\text{R}$ (Isosceles trangle property)
    As $\angle\text{Q} = 70^\circ,$ therefore $\angle\text{R} = 70^\circ,$
    Sum of all the three angles of triangle = 180º, therefore $\angle\text{P}+\angle\text{Q}+\angle\text{R}=180^\circ$
    $\angle\text{P} = 180 - 70 - 70\ = \ 40^\circ$

Two sides of a triangle are of lengths 5cm and 1.5cm. The length of the third side of the triangle cannot be.
  • A
    3.4cm
  • B
    4cm
  • C
    3.8cm
  • D
    3.6cm
Answer
  1. 3.4cm
    Solution:
    Given that: Two sides of triangle are 5cm and 1.5cm. We know that the sum of two sides of the triangle is always greater than the third side. Hence, 3.4cm cannot be the third side. If it is the third side the sum of 3.4cm and 1.5cm will be smaller than 5cm, so, the triangle will not be possible.

  • B
    50º
  • C
    57.5º
  • D
    65º
Answer
  1. 57.5º
    Solution:
    As BC = AC, therefore triangle ABC is an isoscelestriangle.
    Given $\angle\text{ACD} = 115^\circ,\ \angle\text{ACB} = 180-115=65^\circ$ (Linear Pair)
    As AC = BC, therefore $\angle\text{A} =\angle\text{B}$
    As sum of all the three angles of atriangle is 180°
    Therefore, $\angle\text{A} + \angle\text{B} + \angle\text{ACB} = 180^\circ$
    $\angle\text{A} = \angle\text{B} = 57.5$

  • A
    AC
  • B
    BC
  • C
    CA
  • D
    All are equal.
Answer
  1. BC
    Solution:
    $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$
    $\angle\text{A}=45^\circ$
    $\angle\text{B}=70^\circ$
    $\angle\text{C}+45^\circ+70^\circ=180^\circ$
    $\angle\text{C}+115^\circ=180^\circ$
    $\angle\text{C}=180^\circ-115^\circ$
    $\angle\text{C}=65^\circ$
    $\angle\text{A}$ is shortest angle and the side opp to shortest angle is shortest.
    So, BC is the shotest side.
