Find the values of the unknowns x and y in the following diagrams
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
`x = 120^@` `x = 120^@ − 50^@` `x = 70^@`
By angle sum property,Sum ofinteriorangles`=180^@` `50^@+70^@+x=180^@`(i)We know that, Sum of interior opposite angles of a triangle = Exterior angle
`50^@ + 120^@ + x= 180^@` `x = 180^@ − 120^@` `x = 60^@`
(ii)`x=80^@`(verticallyopposite angles)By angle sum property Sum of interior angle=`180^@`(verticallyopposite angles)By angle sum property Sum of interior angles ` = 180^@`
`50^@ + x + 80^@ = 180^@` `50^@ + x + 80^@= 180^@` `130^@ + x = 180^@` `x = 180^@ − 130^@` `x = 50^@ ` (iii)Solve for x and y We know that, Sum of interior opposite angles of a triangle = Exterior angle `50^@ + 60^@ = x` `110^@ = x` `x = 110^@` By angle sum property,Sum of interior angles = 180^@ `50^@ + 60^@+y=180^@` `110^@ + y=180^@` `y = 180^@ −110^@` `y= 70^@` (iv)Solve for x and y`x = 60^@ `(vertically opposite angles are equal) We know that,
Sum of interior angles of a triangle` =180^@`
`30^@ + x + y = 180^@`
`30^@ + 60^@ + y = 180^@` `90^@ + y = 180^@` `y = 180^@ − 90^@` `y = 90^@`
