reflex ∠COE.

Solution:

∴ ∠AOC + ∠COE + ∠EOB = 180°

Since AB is a straight line,

or (∠AOC + ∠BOE) + ∠COE = 180° or 70° + ∠COE = 180° [ ∵∠AOC + ∠BOE = 70° (Given)]
or ∠COE = 180° – 70° = 110°
∴ Reflex ∠COE = 360° – 110° = 250°

∴∠COA = ∠BOD [Vertically opposite angles]

Also, AB and CD intersect at O.

But ∠BOD = 40° [Given]

∴ ∠COA = 40°
Also, ∠AOC + ∠BOE = 70°
∴ 40° + ∠BOE = 70° or ∠BOE = 70° -40° = 30°
Thus, ∠BOE = 30° and reflex ∠COE = 250°.

In figure, lines XY and MN intersect at 0. If ∠POY = 90° , and a : b = 2 : 3. find c.

Ex 6.1 Class 9 Maths Question 2.

Solution:

∴ b+a+∠POY= 180°
Since XOY is a straight line.

But ∠POY = 90° [Given]

∴ b + a = 180° – 90° = 90° …(i)
Also a : b = 2 : 3 ⇒ b = 3a2 …(ii)
Now from (i) and (ii), we get
3a2 + A = 90°
⇒ 5a2 = 90°
⇒ a = 90∘5×2=36∘ = 36°
From (ii), we get
b = 32 x 36° = 54°

∴ c = [a + ∠POY] [Vertically opposite angles]

Since XY and MN interstect at O,

or c = 36° + 90° = 126°

Thus, the required measure of c = 126°.

Also a : b = 2 : 3 ⇒ b = 3a2 …(ii)
Now from (i) and (ii), we get

⇒ 5a2 = 90°
3a2 + A = 90°

⇒ a = 90∘5×2=36∘ = 36°
From (ii), we get
b = 32 x 36° = 54°

Also a : b = 2 : 3 ⇒ b = 3a2 …(ii)
Now from (i) and (ii), we get

⇒ 5a2 = 90°
3a2 + A = 90°

⇒ a = 90∘5×2=36∘ = 36°
From (ii), we get
b = 32 x 36° = 54°

∴ c = [a + ∠POY] [Vertically opposite angles]

Since XY and MN interstect at O,

or c = 36° + 90° = 126°

Thus, the required measure of c = 126°.

In figure, ∠PQR = ∠PRQ, then prove that ∠PQS = ∠PRT.

Ex 6.1 Class 9 Maths Question 3.

Solution:

∴ ∠PQR + ∠PQS = 180° …(1) [Linear pair]

ray YQ bisects ∠ZYP, find ∠XYQ and reflex ∠QYP.

Solution:
XYP is a straight line.

∴ ∠XYZ + ∠ZYQ + ∠QYP = 180°

⇒ 64° + ∠ZYQ + ∠QYP = 180°
[∵ ∠XYZ = 64° (given)]
⇒ 64° + 2∠QYP = 180°
[YQ bisects ∠ZYP so, ∠QYP = ∠ZYQ]
⇒ 2∠QYP = 180° – 64° = 116°
⇒ ∠QYP = 116∘2 = 58°
∴ Reflex ∠QYP = 360° – 58° = 302°
Since ∠XYQ = ∠XYZ + ∠ZYQ
⇒ ∠XYQ = 64° + ∠QYP [∵∠XYZ = 64°(Given) and ∠ZYQ = ∠QYP]

Ex 6.2 Class 9 Maths Question 1.

In figure, find the values of x and y and then show that AB || CD.

Solution:
In the figure, we have CD and PQ intersect at F.

∴ y = 130° …(1)
[Vertically opposite angles]

∠AEP + ∠AEQ = 180° [Linear pair]

Again, PQ is a straight line and EA stands on it.

⇒ x = 180° – 50° = 130° …(2)

or 50° + x = 180°

From (1) and (2), x = y

∴ AB || CD
As they are pair of alternate interior angles.

Ex 6.2 Class 9 Maths Question 2.

In figure, if AB || CD, CD || EF and y : z = 3 : 7, find x.
Solution:

∴ AB || EF
AB || CD, and CD || EF [Given]

∴ x = z [Alternate interior angles] ….(1)

⇒ x + y = 180° [Co-interior angles]

Again, AB || CD

⇒ z + y = 180° … (2) [By (1)]

But y : z = 3 : 7

⇒ 10z = 7 x 180°
z = 73 y = 73(180°- z) [By (2)]

⇒ z = 7 x 180° /10 = 126°

From (1) and (3), we have
x = 126°.

In figure, if AB || CD, EF ⊥ CD and ∠GED = 126°, find ∠AGE, ∠GEF and ∠FGE.
Ex 6.2 Class 9 Maths Question 3.

Solution:

∴ ∠AGE = ∠GED [Alternate interior angles]

AB || CD and GE is a transversal.

But ∠GED = 126° [Given]

∴∠AGE = 126°
Also, ∠GEF + ∠FED = ∠GED
or ∠GEF + 90° = 126° [∵ EF ⊥ CD (given)]

⇒ x + y = 180° [Co-interior angles]

x = z [Alternate interior angles]… (1) Again, AB || CD

∠GEF = 126° -90° = 36°

∴ ∠FGE + ∠GED = 180° [Co-interior angles]

Now, AB || CD and GE is a transversal.

or ∠FGE + 126° = 180°

or ∠FGE = 180° – 126° = 54°
Thus, ∠AGE = 126°, ∠GEF=36° and ∠FGE = 54°.
In figure, if PQ || ST, ∠ PQR = 110° and ∠ RST = 130°, find ∠QRS.
Ex 6.2 Class 9 Maths Question 4.

Solution:
Draw a line EF parallel to ST through R.

Since PQ || ST [Given]

∴ PQ || EF and QR is a transversal
and EF || ST [Construction]

⇒ ∠PQR = ∠QRF [Alternate interior angles] But ∠PQR = 110° [Given]

∴∠QRF = ∠QRS + ∠SRF = 110° …(1)

∴ ∠RST + ∠SRF = 180° [Co-interior angles] or 130° + ∠SRF = 180°

Again ST || EF and RS is a transversal

⇒ ∠SRF = 180° – 130° = 50°

Now, from (1), we have ∠QRS + 50° = 110°
⇒ ∠QRS = 110° – 50° = 60°
Thus, ∠QRS = 60°.

In figure, if AB || CD, ∠APQ = 50° and ∠PRD = 127°, find x and y.

Ex 6.2 Class 9 Maths Question 5.

Solution:

∴ ∠APQ = ∠PQR
We have AB || CD and PQ is a transversal.

⇒ 50° = x [ ∵ ∠APQ = 50° (given)]

[Alternate interior angles]

∴ ∠APR = ∠PRD [Alternate interior angles]

Again, AB || CD and PR is a transversal.

⇒ ∠APR = 127° [ ∵ ∠PRD = 127° (given)]

⇒ ∠APQ + ∠QPR = 127°
⇒ 50° + y = 127° [ ∵ ∠APQ = 50° (given)]
⇒ y = 127°- 50° = 77°
Thus, x = 50° and y = 77°.

Ex 6.2 Class 9 Maths Question 6.

In figure, PQ and RS are two mirrors placed parallel to each other. An incident ray AB strikes the
mirror PQ at B, the reflected ray moves along the path BC and strikes the mirror RS at C and again
reflects back along CD. Prove that AB || CD.

Draw ray BL ⊥PQ and CM ⊥ RS

Solution:

∵ PQ || RS ⇒ BL || CM
[∵ BL || PQ and CM || RS]

∴ ∠LBC = ∠MCB …(1) [Alternate interior angles]

Now, BL || CM and BC is a transversal.

∠ABL = ∠LBC and ∠MCB = ∠MCD

Since, angle of incidence = Angle of reflection

⇒ ∠ABL = ∠MCD …(2) [By (1)]

∠LBC + ∠ABL = ∠MCB + ∠MCD

Adding (1) and (2), we get

⇒ ∠ABC = ∠BCD

∴ AB || CD.
i. e., a pair of alternate interior angles are equal.

We have, ∠TQP + ∠PQR = 180°
Solution:

⇒ 110° + ∠PQR = 180°

[Linear pair]

⇒ ∠PQR = 180° – 110° = 70°

⇒ ∠PQR + ∠PRQ = 135°

Since, the side QP of ∆PQR is produced to S.

⇒ 70° + ∠PRQ = 135° [∠PQR = 70°]

[Exterior angle property of a triangle]

⇒ ∠PRQ = 135° – 70° ⇒ ∠PRQ = 65°

In figure, ∠X = 62°, ∠XYZ = 54°, if YO and ZO are the bisectors of ∠XYZ and ∠XZY respectively of
Ex 6.3 Class 9 Maths Question 2.

∆XYZ, find ∠OZY and ∠YOZ.

In ∆XYZ, we have ∠XYZ + ∠YZX + ∠ZXY = 180°

Solution:

But ∠XYZ = 54° and ∠ZXY = 62°

[Angle sum property of a triangle]

∴ 54° + ∠YZX + 62° = 180°

⇒ ∠YZX = 180° – 54° – 62° = 64°
YO and ZO are the bisectors of ∠XYZ and ∠XZY respectively.
∴ ∠OYZ = 12∠XYZ = 12(54°) = 27°
and ∠OZY = 12∠YZX = 12(64°) = 32°

∠YOZ + ∠OYZ + ∠OZY = 180°

Now, in ∆OYZ, we have

⇒ ∠YOZ + 27° + 32° = 180°

[Angle sum property of a triangle]

⇒ ∠YOZ = 180° -27° – 32° = 121°

Thus, ∠OZY = 32° and ∠YOZ = 121°

In figure, if AB || DE, ∠BAC = 35° and ∠CDE = 539 , find ∠DCE.

Solution:

So, ∠BAC = ∠AED

AB || DE and AE is a transversal.

and ∠BAC = 35° [Given]

[Alternate interior angles]

∴ ∠AED = 35°
Now, in ∆CDE, we have ∠CDE + ∠DEC + ∠DCE = 180°

∴ 53° + 35° + ∠DCE =180°

{Angle sum property of a triangle]

[∵ ∠DEC = ∠AED = 35° and∠CDE = 53° (Given)]

⇒ ∠DCE = 180° – 53° – 35° = 92°
Thus, ∠DCE = 92°

find ∠ SQT.

In ∆PRT, we have ∠P + ∠R + ∠PTR = 180°

Solution:

⇒ 95° + 40° + ∠PTR =180°

[Angle sum property of a triangle]

[ ∵ ∠P = 95°, ∠R = 40° (given)]

⇒ ∠PTR = 180° – 95° – 40° = 45°

∴ ∠PTR = ∠QTS
But PQ and RS intersect at T.

∴ ∠QTS = 45° [ ∵ ∠PTR = 45°]

[Vertically opposite angles]

Now, in ∆ TQS, we have ∠TSQ + ∠STQ + ∠SQT = 180°

∴ 75° + 45° + ∠SQT = 180° [ ∵ ∠TSQ = 75° and ∠STQ = 45°]

[Angle sum property of a triangle]

⇒ ∠SQT = 180° – 75° – 45° = 60°

Thus, ∠SQT = 60°
In figure, if PQ ⊥ PS, PQ||SR, ∠SQR = 2S° and ∠QRT = 65°, then find the values of x and y.
Ex 6.3 Class 9 Maths Question 5.

Solution:

∴ ∠QRT = ∠RQS + ∠RSQ

In ∆ QRS, the side SR is produced to T.

But ∠RQS = 28° and ∠QRT = 65°

[Exterior angle property of a triangle]

So, 28° + ∠RSQ = 65°

⇒ ∠RSQ = 65° – 28° = 37°

∴ ∠PQS = ∠RSQ = 37°

Since, PQ || SR and QS is a transversal.

⇒ x = 37°
[Alternate interior angles]

Again, PQ ⊥ PS ⇒ AP = 90°

we have ∠P + ∠PQS + ∠PSQ = 180°

Now, in ∆PQS,

⇒ 90° + 37° + y = 180°

[Angle sum property of a triangle]

⇒ y = 180° – 90° – 37° = 53°

Thus, x = 37° and y = 53°

Solution:

∠PRS = ∠P + ∠PQR
In ∆PQR, side QR is produced to S, so by exterior angle property,

⇒ 12∠PRS = 12∠P + 12∠PQR

⇒ ∠TRS = 12∠P + ∠TQR …(1)
[∵ QT and RT are bisectors of ∠PQR and ∠PRS respectively.]
∠TRS = ∠TQR + ∠T …(2)
Now, in ∆QRT, we have

[Exterior angle property of a triangle]

we have ∠TQR + 12∠P = ∠TQR + ∠T

From (1) and (2),

⇒ 12∠P = ∠T
⇒ 12∠QPR = ∠QTR or ∠QTR = 12∠QPR
