Question 24 Marks
A transversal $EF$ of line $AB$ and line $CD$ intersects the lines at points $P$ and $Q$ respectively. Ray $PR$ and ray $QS$ are parallel and bisectors of $\angle BPQ$ and $\angle PQC$ respectively. Prove that line $AB \|$ line $CD.$

Given: Ray $PR \|$ ray $QS$
Ray $PR$ and ray $QS$ are the bisectors of $\angle BPQ$ and $\angle PQC$ respectively.
To prove: line $AB \|$ line $CD$
Answer

Image
Proof:
Ray $PR \|$ ray $QS$ and seg $PQ$ is their transversal.
$\angle RPQ = \angle SQP ….(i)$ [Alternate angles]
$\left.\angle RPQ =\frac{1}{2} \angle BPQ \ldots \text {... (ii) [Ray PR bisects } \angle BPQ \right]$
$\angle SQP =\frac{1}{2} \angle PQC [\text { Ray QS bisects } \angle PQC ]$
$\therefore \frac{1}{2} \angle BPQ =\frac{1}{2} \angle PQC $
$\therefore \angle BPQ = \angle PQC$
But, $\angle BPQ$ and $\angle PQC$ are alternate angles on lines $AB$ and $CD$ when line $EF$ is the transversal.
$\therefore$ line $AB \|$ line $CD$ [Alternate angles test]

Question 34 Marks
In the given figure, ray AE || ray BD, ray AF is the bisector of ∠EAB and ray BC is the bisector of ∠ABD. Prove that line AF || line BC.

Image
Given: Ray AE || ray BD, and
ray AF and ray BC are the bisectors of ∠EAB and ∠ABD respectively.
To prove: line AF || line BC

Answer
Proof:
Ray AE || ray BD and seg AB is their transversal.
∴ ∠EAB = ∠ABD ….(i) [Alternate angles]
$\angle FAB =\frac{1}{2} \angle EAB [$ Ray AF bisects $\angle EAB ]$
∴ 2∠FAB = ∠EAB …..(ii)
$\angle CBA =\frac{1}{2} \angle ABD [$ Ray $BC$ bisects $\angle ABD ]$
∴ 2∠CBA = ∠ABD …(iii)
∴ 2∠FAB = 2∠CBA [From (i), (ii) and (iii)]
∴ ∠FAB = ∠CBA
But, ∠FAB and ∠ABC are alternate angles on lines AF and BC when seg AB is the transversal.

Image
∴ line AF || line BC [Alternate angles test]

Question 44 Marks
In the given figure, if ray BA || ray DE, ∠C = 50° and ∠D = 100°. Find the measure of ∠ABC.
(Hint: Draw a line passing through point C and parallel to line AB.)

Image

Answer
Draw a line FG passing through point
C and parallel to line AB
line FG || ray BA …….(i) [Construction]
Ray BA || ray DE ….(ii) [Given]
line FG || ray BA || ray DE …(iii) [From (i) and (ii)]
line FG||rayDE [From (iii)]
and seg DC is their transvensal
∴ ∠ DCF = ∠ EDC [Alternate angles]
∴ ∠ DCF = 100° [∵ ∠D = 100°]
Now, ∠ DCF = ∠ BCF + ∠ BCD [Angle addition property]
∴ 100° = ∠BCF + 50°
∴ 100° – 50° = ∠BCF
∴ ∠BCF = 50° ….(iv)
Now, line FG || ray BA and seg BC is their transversal.

Image
∴ ∠ABC + ∠BCF = 180° [Interior angles]
∴ ∠ABC + 50° = 180° [From (iv)]
∴ ∠ABC = 180°- 50°
∴ ∠ABC = 130°

Question 54 Marks
In the given figure, line AB || line CD and line PQ is transversal. Measure of one of the angles is given. Hence find the measures of the following angles.

i. ∠ART
ii. ∠CTQ
iii. ∠DTQ
iv. ∠PRB
Answer
i. ∠BRT = 105° ….(i)
∠ART + ∠BRT = 180° [Angles in a linear pair]
∴ ∠ART + 105° = 180°
∴ ∠ART = 180° – 105°
∴ ∠ART = 75° …(ii)

ii. line AB || line CD and line PQ is their transversal.
∴ ∠CTQ = ∠ART [Corresponding angles]
∴ ∠CTQ = 75° [From (ii)]

iii. line AB || line CD and line PQ is their transversal.
∴ ∠DTQ = ∠BRT [Corresponding angles]
∴ ∠DTQ = 105° [From (i)]

iv. ∠PRB = ∠ART [Vertically opposite angles]
∴ ∠PRB = 75° [From (ii)]

Question 64 Marks
In the given figure, sides of ∠PQR and ∠XYZ are parallel to each other. Prove that, ∠PQR ≅ ∠XYZ.

Image
Given: Ray YZ || ray QRandray YX || ray QP
To prove: ∠PQR ≅ ∠XYZ
Construction: Extend ray YZ in the opposite direction. It intersects ray QP at point S.

Answer
Proof:
Ray YX || ray QP [Given]
Ray YX || ray SP and seg SY is their transversal [P-S-Q]
∴ ∠XYZ ≅ ∠PSY ……(i) [Corresponding angles]
ray YZ || ray QR [Given]
ray SZ || ray QR and seg PQ is their transversal. [S-Y-Z]
∴ ∠PSY ≅ ∠SQR [Corresponding angles]
∴ ∠PSY ≅ ∠PQR …….. (ii) [P-S-Q]
∴ ∠PQR ≅ ∠XYZ [From (i) and (ii)]

Question 74 Marks
In the given figure, line 11| line m and line n || line p. Find ∠a, ∠b, ∠c from the given measure of an angle.

Image

Answer

Image

i. consider ∠d as shown in the figure
line l || line m, and line p is their transversal.
∴ ∠d = 45° [Corresponding angles]
Now, ∠d + ∠b = 180° [Angles in a linear pair]
∴ 45° +∠b = 180°
∴ ∠b = 180° – 45°
∴ ∠b = 135° …..(i)

ii. ∠a = ∠b [Vertically opposite angles]
∴ ∠a = 135° [From (i)]

iii. line n || line p, and line m is their transversal.
∴ ∠c = ∠b [Corresponding angles]
∴ ∠c = 135° [From (i)]

Question 84 Marks
In the given figure line p line q and line l and line m are tranversals.
Measures of some angles are shown. Hence find the measures of ∠a, ∠b, ∠c, ∠d.

Image

Answer

Image

i. 110 + ∠a = 180° [Angles in a linear pair]
∴ ∠a = 180° – 110°
∴ ∠a = 70°

ii. consider ∠e as shown in the figure line p || line q, and line lis their transversal.
∠e + 110° = 180° [Interior angles]
∴ ∠e = 180° – 110°
∴ ∠e = 70°
But, ∠b = ∠e [Vertically opposite angles]
∴ ∠b = 70°

iii. line p || line q, and line m is their transversal.
∴ ∠c = 115° [Corresponding angles]

iv. 115° + ∠d = 180° [Angles in a linear pair]
∴ ∠d = 180° – 115°
∴ ∠d = 65°

Question 94 Marks
In the given figure, line RP || line MS and line DK is their transversal. ∠DHP = 85°. Find the measures of following angles.

Image
i. ∠RHD
ii. ∠PHG
iii. ∠HGS
iv. ∠MGK

Answer
i. ∠DHP = 85° …..(i)
∠DHP + ∠RHD = 180° [Angles in a linear pair]
85° + ∠RHD = 180°
∴ ∠RHD = 180°- 85°
∴ ∠RHD = 95° …..(ii)

ii. ∠PHG = ∠RHD [Vertically opposite angles]
∴ ∠PHG = 95° [From (ii)]

iii. line RP || line MS and line DK is their transversal. [Corresponding angles]
∴ ∠HGS = ∠DHP …..(iii) [From (i)]

iv. ∠HGS = 85° [Vertically opposite angles]
