Exercise 8.1
Question 1.

Write the complement of each of the following angles:

(i) 20° (ii) 35° (iii) 90°

(iv) 77° (v) 30°


Answer:

(i) Given angle is 20o

Since the sum of an angle and its compliment is 90o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


90o – 20o = 70o


(ii) Given angle is 35o


Since the sum of an angle and its compliment is 90o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


90o – 35o = 55o


(iii) Given angle is 90o


Since the sum of an angle and its compliment is 90o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


90o – 90o = 0o


(iv) Given angle is 77o


Since the sum of an angle and its compliment is 90o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


90o – 77o = 13o


(v) Given angle is 30o


Since the sum of an angle and its compliment is 90o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


90o – 30o = 60o



Question 2.

Write the supplement of each of the following angles:

(i) 54° (ii) 132° (iii) 138°


Answer:

(i) Given angle is 54o

Since the sum of an angle and its supplement is 180o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


180o – 54o = 126o


(ii) Given angle is 132o


Since the sum of an angle and its supplement is 180o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


180o – 132o = 48o


(iii) Given angle is 138o


Since the sum of an angle and its supplement is 180o


Therefore, its compliment will be:


180o – 138o = 42o



Question 3.

If an angle is 28° less than its complement, find its measure.


Answer:

Angle measured will be ‘x’ say

Therefore, its compliment will be (90o – x)


It is given that angle = Compliment – 28o


x = (90o – x) – 28o


2x = 62o


x = 31o



Question 4.

If an angle is 30° more than one half of its complement, find the measure of the angle.


Answer:

Let the angle be "x"

The, its complement will be (90o – x)

Note: Complementary angles: When the sum of 2 angles is 90°.

It is given that angle = 30o + Complement

x = 30o + (90o – x)

x = 30o + 45o - x/2

x + x/2 = 30o + 45o

= 75o

3x = 150o

x= 500

Thus, the angle is 500


Question 5.

Two supplementary angles are in the ratio 4 : 5. Find the angles.


Answer:

Supplementary angles are in the ratio 4: 5

Let the angles be 4x and 5x.


It is given that they are supplementary angles


Therefore,


4x + 5x = 180o


x = 20o


Hence, 4x = 80o


5x = 100o


Therefore, angles are 80o and 100o.



Question 6.

Two supplementary angles differ by 48°. Find the angles.


Answer:

Given that,

Two supplementary angles are differ by 48o


Let, the angle measured be xo


Therefore, its supplementary angle will be (180o – x)


It is given that,


(180o – x) – x = 48o


2x = 180o – 48o


x = 66o


Hence, 180o – x = 114o


Therefore, angles are 66o and 114o.



Question 7.

An angle is equal to 8 times its complement. Determine its measure.


Answer:

It is given that,

Angle = 8 times its compliment


Let x be the measured angle


Angle = 8 (Compliment)


Angle = 8 (90o – xo)


x = 720o – 8x


9x = 720o


x = 80o



Question 8.

If the angles (2x-10)° and (x-5)° are complementary angles, find x.


Answer:

Given that,

(2x – 10)o and (x – 5)o are compliment angles.


Let x be measured angle


Since, angles are complimentary


Therefore,


(2x – 10)o + (x – 5)o = 900


3x – 15o = 90o


x = 35o



Question 9.

If the complement of an angle is equal to the supplement of the thrice of it. Find the measure of the angle.


Answer:

Let the angle measured be x

Compliment angle = (90o – x)


Supplement angle = (180o – x)


Given that,


Supplementary of thrice of the angle = (180o – 3x)


According to question,


(90o – x) = (180o – 3x)


2x = 90o


x = 45o



Question 10.

If an angle differs from its complement by 10°, find the angle.


Answer:

Let the angle measured be x

Given that,


The angles measured will be differ by 10o


xo – (90o – x) = 10o


2x = 100o


x = 50o



Question 11.

If the supplement of an angle is three times its complement, find the angle.


Answer:

Given that,

Supplement angle = 3 times its compliment angle


Let the angle measured be x


According to the question


(180o – x) = 3 (90o – x)


2x = 90o


x = 45o



Question 12.

If the supplement of an angle is two-thirds of itself. Determine the angle and its supplement.


Answer:

Given that,

Supplement = of the angle itself


Let the angle be x


Therefore,


Supplement = (180o – x)


According to the question


(180o – x) =


540o - 3x = 2x

5x = 540o


x = 108o


Hence, supplement = 72o


Therefore, the angle will be 108o and its supplement will be 72o.


Question 13.

An angle is 14° more than its complementary angle. What is its measure?


Answer:

Given that,

An angle is 14 more than its compliment


Let the angle be x


Compliment = (90o – x)


According to the question,


x – (90o – x) = 14


2x = 90o + 14o


x = 52o



Question 14.

The measure of an angle is twice the measure of its supplementary angle. Find its measure.


Answer:

Given that,

Angle measured is twice its supplement


Let the angle measured be x


Therefore,


Supplement = (180o – x)


According to the question


xo = 2 (180o – x)


3x = 360o


x = 120o




Exercise 8.2
Question 1.

In Fig. 8.31, OA and OB are opposite rays:



(i) If x = 25°, what is the value of y?

(ii) If y = 35°, what is the value of x?


Answer:

(i) Given that,

x = 25o


AOC +BOC = 180o (Linear pair)


(2y + 5) + 3x = 180o


(2y + 5) + 3 (25) = 180o


2y = 100o


y = 50o


(ii) Given that,


If y = 35o


AOC +BOC = 180o


(2y + 5) + 3x = 180o


2 (35) + 5 + 3x = 180o


3x = 105o


x = 35o



Question 2.

In Fig. 8.32, write all pairs of adjacent angles and all the linear pairs.



Answer:

Adjacent angles are:

(i) ∠AOC,COB


(ii) ∠AOD,BOD


(iii) ∠AOD,COD


(iv) ∠BOC,COD


Linear pairs are:


AOD,BOD and


AOC,BOC



Question 3.

In Fig. 8.33, find x. Further find ∠BOC,COD and ∠AOD.



Answer:

AOD +BOD = 180o (Linear pair)

AOD +COD +BOC = 180o (Linear pair)


Given that,


AOD = (x + 10)


COD = x


BOC = (x + 20)


(x + 10) + x + (x + 20) = 1800


3x = 150o


x = 50o


Therefore,


AOD = 60o


COD = 50o


BOC = 70o



Question 4.

In Fig. 8.34, rays OA, OB, OC, OD and OE have the common endpoint, O. Show, that ∠AOB +BOC +COD +DOE +EOA = 360°.


Answer:

Given that,

The rays OA, OB, OC, OD, and OE have the common endpoint O.


A ray of opposite to OA is drawn.



Since,


AOB,BOF are linear pair


AOB +BOF = 180o


AOB +BOC +COF = 180o (i)


Also,


AOE +EOF = 180o


AOE +DOF +DOE = 180o (ii)


Adding (i) and (ii), we get


AOB +BOC +COF +AOE +DOF +DOE = 360o


AOB +BOC +COD +DOE +EOA = 360o


Hence, proved


Question 5.

In Fig. 8.35, ∠AOC and ∠BOC form a linear pair. If a -2b = 30°, find a and b.



Answer:

Given,

If (a – 2b) = 30o


AOC = a


BOC = b


Therefore,


a + b = 180o (i)


Given,


(a – 2b) = 30o (ii)


Now,


Subtracting (i) and (ii), we get


a + b – a + 2b = 180o – 30o


b = 50o


Hence,


(a – 2b) = 30o


a – 2 (50) = 30o


a = 130o



Question 6.

How many pairs of adjacent angles are formed when two lines intersect in a point?


Answer:

Four pairs of adjacent angles formed when two lines intersect any point. They are:

AOD,DOB


DOB,BOC


COA,AOD


BOC,COA



Question 7.

EOC,DOC


EOD,DOB


DOC,COB


EOD,DOA


DOC,COA


BOC,BOA


BOA,BOD


BOA,BOE


EOC,COA


EOC,COB


Hence, ten pairs of adjacent angles.



Question 8.

In Fig. 8.37, determine the value of x.



Answer:

Sum of all the angles around the point = 360o

3x + 3x + 150o + x = 360o


7x = 360o – 150o


7x = 210o


x = 30o



Question 9.

In Fig. 8.38, AOC is a line, find x.



Answer:

AOB +BOC = 180o (Linear pair)

70o + 2x = 180o


2x = 110o


x = 55o



Question 10.

In Fig. 8.39, POS is a line, find x.



Answer:

POQ +QOS = 180o (Linear pair)

POQ +QOR +SOR = 180o


60o + 4x + 40o = 180o


4x = 80o


x = 20o



Question 11.

In Fig. 8.40, ∠ACB is a line such that ∠DCA = 5x and ∠DCB = 4x. Find the value of x.



Answer:

ACD +BCD = 180o(Linear pair)

5x + 4x = 180o


9x = 180o


x = 20o



Question 12.

Given ∠POR = 3x and ∠QOR = 2x+10, find the value of x for which POQ will be a line.



Answer:

QOR +POR = 180o(Linear pair)

2x + 10o + 3x = 180o


5x = 170o


x = 34o



Question 13.

In Fig. 8.42, a is greater than b by one third of a right angle. Find the values of a and b.



Answer:

a +b = 180o (Linear pair)

a =180o - b (i)


Now, given that


a = b + * 90o


a = b + 30o (ii)


a – b = 30o


Equating (i) and (ii), we get


180o – b = b + 30o


150o = 2b


b = 75o


Hence, a = 180o – b


= 105o



Question 14.

What value of y would make AOB a line in Fig. 8.43, if ∠AOC= 4y and ∠BOC =(6y+30)



Answer:

AOC +BOC = 180o

6y + 30o + 4y = 180o


10y = 150o


y = 15o



Question 15.

In Fig. 8.44, ∠AOF and ∠FOG form a linear pair.

EOB = ∠FOC = 90° and ∠DOC =FOG = ∠AOB = 30°



(i) Find the measures of ∠FOE, ∠COB and ∠DOE.

(ii) Name all the right angles.

(iii) Name three pairs of adjacent complementary angles.

(iv) Name three pairs of adjacent supplementary angles.

(v) Name three pairs of adjacent angles.


Answer:

(i) Say,

FOE = x


DOE = y


BOC = z


AOF + 30o = 180o (AOF +FOG = 180o)


AOF = 150o


AOB +BOC +COD +DOE +EOF = 150o


30o + z + 30o + y + x = 150o


x + y + z = 90o(i)


Now,


FOC = 90o


FOE +EOD +DOC = 90o


x + y + 30o = 90o


x + y = 60o (ii)


Using (ii) in (i), we get


x + y + z = 90o


60o + z = 90o


z = 30o (BOC = 30o)


BOE = 90o


BOC +COD +DOE = 90o


30o + 30o +DOE = 90o


DOE = 30o


Now, we have


x + y = 60o


y = 30o


FOE = 30o


(ii) Right angles are:


DOG,COF,BOF,AOD

Question 16.

In Fig. 8.45, OP, OQ, OR and OS are four rays, prove that:

POQ + ∠QOR + ∠SOR + ∠POS = 360°



Answer:

Given that,

OP, OQ, OR and OS are four rays


You need to produce any of the rays OP, OQ, OR and OS backwards to a point T so that TOQ is a line.


Ray OP stands on line TOQ


TOP +POQ = 180o (Linear pair) (i)


Similarly,


TOS +SOQ =180o(ii)


TOS +SOR +OQR = 180o (iii)


Adding (i) and (iii), we get


TOP +POQ +TOS +SOR +QOR = 360o


TOP +TOS =POS


Therefore, POQ +QOR +SOR +POS = 360o.



Question 17.

In Fig. 8.46, ray OS stand on a line POQ. Ray OR and ray OT are angle bisectors of ∠POS and respectively. If ∠POS = x, find ∠ROT.



Answer:

Given that,

Ray OS stand on a line POQ


Ray OR and OT are angle bisector of POS and SOQ respectively.


POS = x


POS +QOS = 180o(Linear pair)


QOS = 180o – x


ROS =POS (Given)


=x


ROS =


Similarly,


TOS = (90o -)


Therefore,


ROT =ROS +ROT


=+ 90o -


= 90o


Therefore, ROT = 90o



Question 18.

In Fig. 8.47, lines PQ and RS intersect each other at point O. If ∠POR : ∠ROQ = 5 : 7, find all the angles.



Answer:

Given,

POR andROP is linear pair


POR +ROP = 180o


Given that,


POR =ROQ = 5: 7


Therefore,


POR = × 180o = 75o


Similarly,


ROQ = 125o


Now,


POS =ROQ = 125o(Vertically opposite angles)


Therefore,


SOQ =POR = 75o(Vertically opposite angles)


Question 19.

In Fig. 8.48, POQ is a line. Ray OR is perpendicular to line PQ. OS is another ray lying between rays OP and OR. Prove that ∠ROS = (∠QOS –POS.)



Answer:

OR perpendicular to PQ

Therefore,


POR = 90o


POS +SOR = 90o [Therefore, POR =POS +SOR]


ROS = 90o -POS (i)


QOR = 90o (Therefore, OR perpendicular to PQ)


QOS -ROS = 90o


ROS =QOS – 90o(ii)


By adding (i) and (ii), we get


2ROS =QOS -POS


ROS =(QOS -POS)

Answer:

Given that,

x = 45o


y =?


z =?


u =?


z = x = 45o (Vertically opposite angle)


z + u = 180o (Linear pair)


45o = 180o – u


u = 135o


x + y = 180o (Linear pair)


45o = 180o – y


y = 135o


Therefore, x = 45o, y = 135o, u = 135o and z = 45o.



Question 2.

In Fig. 8.57, three coplanar lines intersect at a point O, forming angles as shown in the figure, Find the values of x, y, z and u.



Answer:

Since,

Vertically opposite angles are equal


So,


BOD = z = 90o


DOF = y = 50o


Now,


x + y + z = 180o (Linear pair)


x + 90o + 50o = 1800


x = 40o



Question 3.

In Fig. 8.58, find the values of x, y and z.



Answer:

From the given figure,

y = 25o(Vertically opposite angle)


(x + y) = 180o (Linear pair)


x + 25o = 180o


x = 155o


Also,


z = x = 155o (Vertically opposite angle)


y = 25o



Question 4.

In Fig. 8.59, find the value of x.



Answer:

AOE =BOF = 5x (Vertically opposite angle)

AOC =BOD


Also,


OF is the bisector of AOC and OE is the bisector of BOD


To prove: EOF is a straight line.


AOD =BOC = 2x (Vertically opposite angle) (i)


As OE and OF are bisectors.

So AOE = ∠BOF = x

AOD +BOD = 180° (linear pair)

AOE + ∠EOD + ∠DOB = 180°

From (1)

∠BOF + ∠EOD + ∠DOB = 180°

EOF = 180o

EF is a straight line.

Question 6.

To prove: BOC = 90o


AOC = 90o


AOD = 90o


BOD = 90o


Proof: Given that,


BOC = 90o


BOC =AOD = 90o(Vertically opposite angle)


AOC +BOC = 180o(Linear pair)


AOC + 90o = 180o


AOC = 90o


AOC =BOD = 90o(Vertically opposite angles)


Therefore,


AOC =BOC =BOD =AOD = 90o


Hence, proved

y = 60o


(ii) Given that,


y = 40o


x =?


AOC +BOC = 180o (Linear pair)


2x + y = 180o


2x = 140o


x = 70o



Question 9.

In Fig. 8.61, lines AB, CD and EF intersect at O. Find the measures of ∠AOC,COF,DOE and ∠BOF.



Answer:

AOE +EOB = 180o(Linear pair)

AOE +DOE +BOD = 180o


DOE = 105o


DOE =COF = 105o(Vertically opposite angle)


AOE +AOF = 180o(Linear pair)


40o +AOC + 105o= 180o


AOC = 35o


Also,


BOF =AOE = 40o(Vertically opposite angle)



Question 10.

Answer:

OF bisects BOD

BOF = 35o


BOC =?


AOD =?


BOD =BOF = 70o(Therefore, OF bisects BOD)


BOD =AOC = 70o(Vertically opposite angle)


BOC +AOC = 180o


BOC + 70o = 180o


BOC = 110o


AOD =BOC = 110o(Vertically opposite angle)



Question 11.

In Fig. 8.62, lines AB and CD intersect at O. If ∠AOC + ∠BOE = 70° and ∠BOD = 40° find ∠BOE and reflex ∠COE.



Answer:

Given that,

AOC +BOE = 70o


And,


BOD = 40o


BOF =?


BOD =AOC = 40o (Vertically opposite angle)


Given,


AOC +BOE = 70o


40o +BOE = 70o


BOE = 70o – 40o


= 30o


AOC andBOC are linear pair angle


AOC +COE +BOE = 180o


COE = 180o – 30o – 40o

Therefore,


KNG = 120o


GNK =AKL = 120o(Corresponding angle)


AKH =KHD = 25o(Alternate angles)


Therefore,


HKL =AKH +AKL


= 25o + 120o


= 145o

180o + O +C = 360o


O +C = 180o


Hence, AOB +AOC = 180o (i)


Also,


B +ACB = 180o


ACB = 180o – 90o


ACB = 90o (ii)


From (i) and (ii), we get

Now,


AD ‖ BC and AB is transversal


A +B = 180o(Co. interior angles are supplementary)

Question 10.

The supplement of an acute angle is ……….


Answer:

Supplement is defined as the other angle that adds up to 180 degrees. So therefore if you have an acute angle you know by definition that the angle is less than 90 degrees. In order for both of them to be supplementary (add up to 180 degrees) the other angle must be greater than 90 degrees. Angles that are greater than 90 degrees are obtuse angles. So an obtuse angle is the supplement of an acute angle.
