The side BA and DC of a quadrilateral AB...

The side BA and DC of a quadrilateral ABCD are produced to E and F respectively. If `angleBCF=a^(0),angleABC=x^(@), angleADC=y^(@)and angleDAE=b^(@),`
`"then find relation between a,b,x and y"`

A

` x-y = a+b `

B

` x+y = a-b `

C

` x-y = a-b `

D

` x+y = a+b `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`{:("We have",angle1+b^(@)=180^(@),),(implies,angle1=(180^(@)-b^(@)),("linear pair")),(Also,angle2+a^(@)=180^(@),("linear pair")),(implies,angleA+angleB+angleC+angleD = 360^(@),("sum of all the angles of a quadrilateral")),(implies,(180-b)^(@)+x^(@)+(180-a)^(@)+y^(@)=360^(@),),(implies,x+y=a+b,):}`
