CBSE Notes For Class 9 Maths Chapter 6 Lines and Angles

1.0Introduction to Lines and Angles

The two basics in geometry are lines and angles. Whenever two lines meet, angles are formed, and relationships from which we can describe shapes and their properties are provided. In CBSE Class 9 Maths Chapter 6 Lines and Angles, by studying the relationship of lines and angles and how these interact with each other, we can solve geometric problems and prove important theorems.

3.0CBSE Class 9 Maths Chapter-6 Lines and Angles - Revision Notes

Lines and Angles

What properties do these angles and lines have? 

Axiom-1: If a ray stands on any straight line, then the sum of two adjacent angles so formed is 180°. This property is more commonly known as a Linear pair of angles. 

Properties of angles

Example: In the given figure, AB is a line that is cut by line CD. ∠ 1 = 75°, find ∠ 2. 

Solution: ∠ 1 + ∠ 2 = 180 (Linear pair of angles) 

75° + ∠ 2 = 180° 

∠ 2 = 180° - 75° 

∠ 2 = 105°.

Axiom-2: If the sum of two adjacent angles is 180° degrees, then the non-common of the angles forms a line. Commonly known as the reverse of a linear pair of angles. 

Axiom 2 in lines and angles

Example: In the given figure, ∠ DOA + ∠DOB = ∠ AOC + ∠BOC. prove that AOB is a line.  

Solution: ∠AOC + ∠BOC + ∠DOA + ∠DOB = 360 (sum of all angles) 

As it is given that ∠ DOA + ∠DOB = ∠ AOC + ∠ BOC

Hence, 

∠AOC + ∠BOC + ∠AOC + ∠BOC = 360 

2∠AOC + 2∠BOC = 360

2(∠AOC + ∠BOC) = 360 

∠AOC + ∠BOC = 180 

Hence, AOB is a line by reverse of a linear pair of angles. 

Theorem 1: Vertically opposite angle theorem: If two lines intersect each other, then the vertically opposite angles are equal. 

To prove: ∠ 1 = ∠ 3 and ∠ 2 = ∠ 4. 

Vertically opposite angles

Given: l and m Both are lines intersecting each other. 

Proof: l and m are lines, hence by linear pair axiom

∠ 1 + ∠ 4 = 180 

∠ 1 + ∠ 2 = 180 

∠ 1 + ∠ 4 = ∠ 1 + ∠ 2 

∠ 4 = ∠ 2 

Similarly, ∠ 1 = ∠ 3. 

Theorem 2: In maths, Lines parallel to the same line are parallel to another line as well. 

To prove: line a is parallel to line c. 

Parallel lines

Given: line a is parallel to line b and line b is parallel to line c 

Proof: Line A is parallel to line b hence, 

∠ 1 = ∠ 2 (corresponding angle of parallel line) 

Line b is parallel to line c hence,

∠ 2 = ∠ 3  (corresponding angle of parallel line) 

Hence, 

∠ 1 = ∠ 3 

So, line a is parallel to line c by the reverse of the corresponding angle of the parallel line. 

4.0Solved Problems 

Question 1: In Figure, AB, CD, and EF are three lines concurrent at O. Find the value of y.

Solution:

Sample problems on lines and angles

∠ EOA = ∠ BOF = 5y

∠ EOC + ∠EOA + ∠AOD = 180 (Linear pair of lines) 

2y + 5y + 2y = 180 

9y = 180 

y = 20 


Question 2: In Figure, x = y and a = b. Prove that l || n.

Given: x = y and a = b 

Solution:

Example problems on angles and lines

x = y

Hence, l || m (converse of corresponding angle axiom) 

Given that a = b 

Hence, m || n (converse of corresponding angle axiom) 

l || n as Lines parallel to the same line are parallel to another line as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

The angle on the same side and the position of two parallel lines are always equal, which is called the corresponding angle.

If the sum of two adjacent angles is equal to 180 degrees, then these pairs of angles are called supplementary angles.

If the sum of two adjacent angles is equal to 90 degrees, then these pairs of angles are called complementary angles in maths.

A line intersecting two or more parallel lines is known as a transversal.
