RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 9 Chapter 4 Exercise 4A

Question 1:
(i) Angle: Two rays having a common end point form an angle.
(ii) Interior of an angle: The interior of ∠AOB is the set of all points in its plane, which lie on the same side of OA as B and also on same side of OB as A.
(iii) Obtuse angle: An angle whose measure is more than 90° but less than 180°, is called an obtuse angle.
(iv) Reflex angle: An angle whose measure is more than 180° but less than 360° is called a reflex angle.
(v) Complementary angles: Two angles are said to be complementary, if the sum of their measures is 90o.
(vi) Supplementary angles: Two angles are said to be supplementary, if the sum of their measures is 180°.

Question 2:
∠A = 36° 27′ 46″ and ∠B = 28° 43′ 39″
∴ Their sum = (36° 27′ 46″) + (28° 43′ 39″)

Therefore, the sum ∠A + ∠B = 65° 11′ 25″

Question 3:
Let ∠A = 36° and ∠B = 24° 28′ 30″
Their difference = 36° – 24° 28′ 30″

Thus the difference between two angles is ∠A – ∠B = 11° 31′ 30″

Question 4:
(i) Complement of 58^o = 90^o – 58^o = 32^o
(ii) Complement of 16^o = 90 – 16^o = 74^o
(iii) [latex s=2]frac { 2 }{ 3 }  [/latex] of a right angle = [latex s=2]frac { 2 }{ 3 }  [/latex] × 90^o = 60^o
Complement of 60^o = 90^o – 60^o = 30^o
(iv)  1^o = 60′
⇒ 90^o = 89^o 60′

Complement of 46^o 30′ = 90^o – 46^o 30′ = 43^o 30′
(v) 90^o = 89^o 59′ 60″

Complement of 52^o 43′ 20″ = 90^o – 52^o 43′ 20″
= 37^o 16′ 40″
(vi) 90^o = 89^o 59′ 60″

∴ Complement of (68^o 35′ 45″)
= 90^o – (68^o 35′ 45″)
= 89^o 59′ 60″ – (68^o 35′ 45″)
= 21^o 24′ 15″

Question 5:
(i) Supplement of 63^o = 180^o – 63^o = 117^o
(ii) Supplement of 138^o = 180^o – 138^o = 42^o
(iii) [latex s=2]frac { 3 }{ 5 }  [/latex] of a right angle = [latex s=2]frac { 3 }{5 }  [/latex] × 90^o = 54^o
∴ Supplement of 54^o = 180^o – 54^o = 126^o
(iv) 1^o = 60′
⇒ 180^o = 179^o 60′

Supplement of 75^o 36′ = 180^o – 75^o 36′ = 104^o 24′
(v)  1^o = 60′, 1′ = 60″
⇒ 180^o = 179^o 59′ 60″

Supplement of 124^o 20′ 40″ = 180^o – 124^o 20′ 40″
= 55^o 39′ 20″
(vi) 1^o = 60′, 1′ = 60″
⇒ 180^o = 179^o 59′ 60″

∴ Supplement of 108^o 48′ 32″ = 180^o – 108^o 48′ 32″
= 71^o 11′ 28″.

Question 6:
(i) Let the required angle be x^o
Then, its complement = 90^o – x^o

∴ The measure of an angle which is equal to its complement is 45^o.
(ii) Let the required angle be x^o
Then, its supplement = 180^o – x^o

∴ The measure of an angle which is equal to its supplement is 90^o.

Question 7:
Let the required angle be x^o
Then its complement is 90^o – x^o

∴ The measure of an angle which is 36^o more than its complement is 63^o.

Question 8:
Let the required angle be x^o
Then its supplement is 180^o – x^o

∴ The measure of an angle which is 25^o less than its supplement is

Question 9:
Let the required angle be x^o
Then, its complement = 90^o – x^o

∴ The required angle is 72^o.

Question 10:
Let the required angle be x^o
Then, its supplement is 180^o – x^o

∴ The required angle is 150^o.

Question 11:
Let the required angle be x^o
Then, its complement is 90^o – x^o and its supplement is 180^o – x^o
That is we have,

∴ The required angle is 60^o.

Question 12:
Let the required angle be x^o
Then, its complement is 90^o – x^o and its supplement is 180^o – x^o

∴ The required angle is 45^o.

Question 13:
Let the two required angles be x^o and 180^o – x^o.
Then,

⇒ 2x = 3(180 – x)
⇒ 2x = 540 – 3x
⇒ 3x + 2x = 540
⇒ 5x = 540
⇒ x = 108
Thus, the required angles are 108^o and 180^o – x^o = 180 ^o – 108^o = 72^o.

Question 14:
Let the two required angles be x^o and 90^o – x^o.
Then

⇒ 5x = 4(90 – x)
⇒ 5x = 360 – 4x
⇒ 5x + 4x = 360
⇒ 9x = 360
⇒ x = [latex]frac { 360 }{ 9 }  [/latex] = 40
Thus, the required angles are 40^o and 90^o – x^o = 90 ^o – 40^o = 50^o.

Question 15:
Let the required angle be x^o.
Then, its complementary and supplementary angles are (90^o – x) and (180^o – x) respectively.
Then, 7(90^o – x) = 3 (180^o – x) – 10^o
⇒ 630^o – 7x = 540^o – 3x – 10^o
⇒ 7x – 3x = 630^o – 530^o
⇒ 4x = 100^o
⇒ x = 25^o
Thus, the required angle is 25^o.

RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 9 Chapter 4 Exercise 4B

Question 1:

Since ∠BOC and ∠COA form a linear pair of angles, we have
∠BOC + ∠COA = 180^o
⇒ x^o + 62^o = 180^o
⇒ x = 180 – 62
∴ x = 118^o

Question 2:
Since, ∠BOD and ∠DOA form a linear pair.
∠BOD + ∠DOA = 180^o
∴ ∠BOD + ∠DOC + ∠COA = 180^o
⇒ (x + 20)^o + 55^o + (3x – 5)^o = 180^o
⇒ x + 20 + 55 + 3x – 5 = 180
⇒ 4x + 70 = 180
⇒ 4x = 180 – 70 = 110
⇒ x = [latex]frac { 110 }{ 4 }  [/latex] = 27.5
∴ ∠AOC = (3 × 27.5 – 5)^o  = 82.5-5 = 77.5^o
And, ∠BOD = (x + 20)^o = 27.5^o + 20^o = 47.5^o.

Question 3:
Since ∠BOD and ∠DOA from a linear pair of angles.
⇒ ∠BOD + ∠DOA = 180^o
⇒ ∠BOD + ∠DOC + ∠COA = 180^o
⇒ x^o + (2x – 19)^o + (3x + 7)^o = 180^o
⇒ 6x – 12 = 180
⇒ 6x = 180 + 12 = 192
⇒ x = [latex]frac { 192 }{ 6 }  [/latex] = 32
⇒ x = 32
⇒ ∠AOC = (3x + 7)^o = (3 32 + 7)^o = 103^o
⇒ ∠COD = (2x – 19)^o = (2 32 – 19)^o = 45^o
and ∠BOD = x^o = 32^o

Question 4:
x: y: z = 5: 4: 6
The sum of their ratios = 5 + 4 + 6 = 15
But x + y + z = 180^o
[Since, XOY is a straight line]
So, if the total sum of the measures is 15, then the measure of x is 5.
If the sum of angles is 180^o, then, measure of  x = [latex]frac { 5 }{ 15 }  [/latex] × 180 = 60
And, if the total sum of the measures is 15, then the measure of y is 4.
If the sum of the angles is 180^o, then, measure of  y = [latex]frac { 4 }{ 15 }  [/latex] × 180 = 48
And ∠z = 180^o – ∠x – ∠y
= 180^o – 60^o – 48^o
= 180^o – 108^o = 72^o
∴ x = 60, y = 48 and z = 72.

Question 5:
AOB will be a straight line, if two adjacent angles form a linear pair.
∴ ∠BOC + ∠AOC = 180^o
⇒ (4x – 36)^o + (3x + 20)^o = 180^o
⇒ 4x – 36 + 3x + 20 = 180
⇒ 7x – 16 = 180^o
⇒ 7x = 180 + 16 = 196
⇒ x = [latex]frac { 196 }{ 7 }  [/latex] = 28
∴ The value of x = 28.

Question 6:
Since ∠AOC and ∠AOD form a linear pair.
∴ ∠AOC + ∠AOD = 180^o
⇒ 50^o + ∠AOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠AOD = 180^o – 50^o = 130^o
∠AOD and ∠BOC are vertically opposite angles.
∠AOD = ∠BOC
⇒ ∠BOC = 130^o
∠BOD and ∠AOC are vertically opposite angles.
∴ ∠BOD = ∠AOC
⇒ ∠BOD = 50^o

Question 7:
Since ∠COE and ∠DOF are vertically opposite angles, we have,
∠COE = ∠DOF
⇒ ∠z = 50^o
Also ∠BOD and ∠COA are vertically opposite angles.
So, ∠BOD = ∠COA
⇒ ∠t = 90^o
As ∠COA and ∠AOD form a linear pair,
∠COA + ∠AOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠COA + ∠AOF + ∠FOD = 180^o [∠t = 90^o]
⇒ t + x + 50^o = 180^o
⇒ 90^o + x^o + 50^o = 180^o
⇒ x + 140 = 180
⇒ x = 180 – 140 = 40
Since ∠EOB and ∠AOF are vertically opposite angles
So, ∠EOB = ∠AOF
⇒ y = x = 40
Thus, x = 40 = y = 40, z = 50 and t = 90

Question 8:
Since ∠COE and ∠EOD form a linear pair of angles.
⇒ ∠COE + ∠EOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠COE + ∠EOA + ∠AOD = 180^o
⇒ 5x + ∠EOA + 2x = 180
⇒ 5x + ∠BOF + 2x = 180
[∴ ∠EOA and BOF are vertically opposite angles so, ∠EOA = ∠BOF]
⇒ 5x + 3x + 2x = 180
⇒ 10x = 180
⇒ x = 18
Now ∠AOD = 2x^o = 2 × 18^o = 36^o
∠COE = 5x^o = 5 × 18^o = 90^o
and, ∠EOA = ∠BOF = 3x^o = 3 × 18^o = 54^o

Question 9:
Let the two adjacent angles be 5x and 4x.
Now, since these angles form a linear pair.
So, 5x + 4x = 180^o
⇒ 9x = 180^o
⇒ x = [latex]frac { 180 }{ 9 }  [/latex] = 20
∴ The required angles are 5x = 5x = 5 20^o = 100^o
and 4x = 4 × 20^o = 80^o

Question 10:
Let two straight lines AB and CD intersect at O and let ∠AOC = 90^o.

Now, ∠AOC = ∠BOD [Vertically opposite angles]
⇒ ∠BOD = 90^o
Also, as ∠AOC and ∠AOD form a linear pair.
⇒ 90^o + ∠AOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠AOD = 180^o – 90^o = 90^o
Since, ∠BOC = ∠AOD [Verticallty opposite angles]
⇒ ∠BOC = 90^o
Thus, each of the remaining angles is 90^o.

Question 11:
Since, ∠AOD and ∠BOC are vertically opposite angles.
∴ ∠AOD = ∠BOC
Now, ∠AOD + ∠BOC = 280^o [Given]
⇒ ∠AOD + ∠AOD = 280^o
⇒ 2∠AOD = 280^o
⇒ ∠AOD = [latex]frac { 280 }{ 2 }  [/latex] = 140^o
⇒ ∠BOC = ∠AOD = 140^o
As, ∠AOC and ∠AOD form a linear pair.
So, ∠AOC + ∠AOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠AOC + 140^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠AOC = 180^o – 140^o = 40^o
Since, ∠AOC and ∠BOD are vertically opposite angles.
∴ ∠AOC = ∠BOD
⇒ ∠BOD = 40^o
∴ ∠BOC = 140^o, ∠AOC = 40^o , ∠AOD = 140^o and ∠BOD = 40^o.

Question 12:
Since ∠COB and ∠BOD form a linear pair
So, ∠COB + ∠BOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠BOD = 180^o – ∠COB …. (1)
Also, as ∠COA and ∠AOD form a linear pair.
So, ∠COA + ∠AOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠AOD = 180^o – ∠COA
⇒ ∠AOD = 180^o – ∠COB …. (2)
[Since, OC is the bisector of ∠AOB, ∠BOC = ∠AOC]
From (1) and (2), we get,
∠AOD = ∠BOD (Proved)

Question 13:

Let QS be a perpendicular to AB.
Now, ∠PQS = ∠SQR
Because angle of incident = angle of reflection
⇒ ∠PQS = ∠SQR = [latex]frac { 112 }{ 2 }  [/latex] = 56^o
Since QS is perpendicular to AB, ∠PQA and ∠PQS are complementary angles.
Thus, ∠PQA + ∠PQS = 90^o
⇒ ∠PQA + 56^o = 90^o
⇒ ∠PQA = 90^o  –  56^o = 34^o

Question 14:
Given : AB and CD are two lines which are intersecting at O. OE is a ray bisecting the ∠BOD. OF is a ray opposite to ray OE.

To Prove: ∠AOF = ∠COF
Proof : Since [latex s=2]overrightarrow { OE }     [/latex] and [latex s=2]overrightarrow { OF }     [/latex] are two opposite rays, [latex s=2]overrightarrow { EF }     [/latex] is a straight line passing through O.
∴ ∠AOF = ∠BOE
and ∠COF = ∠DOE
[Vertically opposite angles]
But ∠BOE = ∠DOE (Given)
∴ ∠AOF = ∠COF
Hence, proved.

Question 15:
Given: [latex s=2]overrightarrow { CF }     [/latex] is the bisector of ∠BCD and [latex s=2]overrightarrow { CE }     [/latex] is the bisector of ∠ACD.
To Prove: ∠ECF = 90^o
Proof: Since ∠ACD and ∠BCD forms a linear pair.
∠ACD + ∠BCD = 180^o

∠ACE + ∠ECD + ∠DCF + ∠FCB = 180^o
∠ECD + ∠ECD + ∠DCF + ∠DCF = 180^o
because ∠ACE = ∠ECD
and ∠DCF = ∠FCB
2(∠ECD) + 2 (∠CDF) = 180^o
2(∠ECD + ∠DCF) = 180^o
∠ECD + ∠DCF = [latex]frac { 180 }{ 2 }  [/latex] = 90^o
∠ECF = 90^o (Proved)

RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 9 Chapter 4 Exercise 4C

Question 1:
Since AB and CD are given to be parallel lines and t is a transversal.
So, ∠5 = ∠1 = 70^o [Corresponding angles are equal]
∠3 = ∠1 = 70^o [Vertically opp. Angles]
∠3 + ∠6 = 180^o [Co-interior angles on same side]
∴ ∠6 = 180^o – ∠3
= 180^o – 70^o = 110^o
∠6 = ∠8 [Vertically opp. Angles]
⇒ ∠8 = 110^o
⇒ ∠4 + ∠5 = 180^o [Co-interior angles on same side]
∠4 = 180^o – 70^o = 110^o
∠2 = ∠4 = 110^o [ Vertically opposite angles]
∠5 = ∠7 [Vertically opposite angles]
So, ∠7 = 70^o
∴ ∠2 = 110^o, ∠3 = 70^o , ∠4 = 110^o, ∠5 = 70^o, ∠6 = 110^o, ∠7 = 70^o and ∠8 = 110^o.

Question 2:
Since ∠2 : ∠1 = 5 : 4.
Let ∠2 and ∠1 be 5x and 4x respectively.
Now, ∠2 + ∠1 = 180^o , because ∠2 and ∠1 form a linear pair.
So, 5x + 4x = 180^o
⇒ 9x = 180^o
⇒ x = 20^o
∴ ∠1 = 4x = 4 × 20^o = 80^o
And ∠2 = 5x = 5 × 20^o = 100^o
∠3 = ∠1 = 80^o [Vertically opposite angles]
And ∠4 = ∠2 = 100^o [Vertically opposite angles]
∠1 = ∠5 and ∠2 = ∠6 [Corresponding angles]
So, ∠5 = 80^o and ∠6 = 100^o
∠8 = ∠6 = 100^o [Vertically opposite angles]
And ∠7 = ∠5 = 80^o [Vertically opposite angles]
Thus, ∠1 = 80^o, ∠2 = 100^o, ∠3 = ∠80^o, ∠4 = 100^o, ∠5 = 80^o, ∠6 = 100^o, ∠7 = 80^o and ∠8 = 100^o.

Question 3:
Given: AB || CD and AD || BC
To Prove: ∠ADC = ∠ABC
Proof: Since AB || CD and AD is a transversal. So sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o.
⇒ ∠BAD + ∠ADC = 180^o ….(i)
Also, AD || BC and AB is transversal.
So, ∠BAD + ∠ABC = 180^o ….(ii)
From (i) and (ii) we get:
∠BAD + ∠ADC = ∠BAD + ∠ABC
⇒ ∠ADC = ∠ABC (Proved)

Question 4:
(i) Through E draw EG || CD. Now since EG||CD and ED is a transversal.

So, ∠GED = ∠EDC = 65^o [Alternate interior angles]
Since EG || CD and AB || CD,
EG||AB and EB is transversal.
So, ∠BEG = ∠ABE = 35^o [Alternate interior angles]
So, ∠DEB = x^o
⇒ ∠BEG + ∠GED = 35^o + 65^o = 100^o.
Hence, x = 100.
(ii) Through O draw OF||CD.

Now since OF || CD and OD is transversal.
∠CDO + ∠FOD = 180^o
[sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
⇒ 25^o + ∠FOD = 180^o
⇒ ∠FOD = 180^o – 25^o = 155^o
As OF || CD and AB || CD [Given]
Thus, OF || AB and OB is a transversal.
So, ∠ABO + ∠FOB = 180^o    [sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
⇒ 55^o + ∠FOB = 180^o
⇒ ∠FOB = 180^o – 55^o = 125^o
Now, x^o = ∠FOB + ∠FOD = 125^o + 155^o = 280^o.
Hence, x = 280.
(iii) Through E, draw EF || CD.

Now since EF || CD and EC is transversal.
∠FEC + ∠ECD = 180^o
[sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
⇒ ∠FEC + 124^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠FEC = 180^o – 124^o = 56^o
Since EF || CD and AB ||CD
So, EF || AB and AE is a trasveral.
So, ∠BAE + ∠FEA = 180^o
[sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
∴ 116^o + ∠FEA = 180^o
⇒ ∠FEA = 180^o – 116^o = 64^o
Thus, x^o = ∠FEA + ∠FEC
= 64^o + 56^o = 120^o.
Hence, x = 120.

Question 5:
Since AB || CD and BC is a transversal.
So, ∠ABC = ∠BCD                [atternate interior angles]
⇒ 70^o = x^o + ∠ECD ….(i)
Now, CD || EF and CE is transversal.
So, ∠ECD + ∠CEF = 180^o     [sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
∴ ∠ECD + 130^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠ECD = 180^o – 130^o = 50^o
Putting ∠ECD = 50^o in (i) we get,
70^o = x^o + 50^o
⇒ x = 70 – 50 = 20

Question 6:
Through C draw FG || AE

Now, since CG || BE and CE is a transversal.
So, ∠GCE = ∠CEA = 20^o            [Alternate angles]
∴ ∠DCG = 130^o – ∠GCE
= 130^o – 20^o = 110^o
Also, we have AB || CD and FG is a transversal.
So, ∠BFC = ∠DCG = 110^o          [Corresponding angles]
As, FG || AE, AF is a transversal.
∠BFG = ∠FAE                           [Corresponding angles]
∴ x^o = ∠FAE = 110^o.
Hence, x = 110

Question 7:
Given: AB || CD
To Prove: ∠BAE – ∠DCE = ∠AEC

Construction : Through E draw EF || AB
Proof : Since EF || AB, AE is a transversal.
So, ∠BAE + ∠AEF = 180^O ….(i)
[sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
As EF || AB and AB || CD [Given]
So, EF || CD and EC is a transversal.
So, ∠FEC + ∠DCE = 180^o ….(ii)
[sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
From (i) and (ii) we get,
∠BAE + ∠AEF = ∠FEC + ∠DCE
⇒ ∠BAE – ∠DCE = ∠FEC – ∠AEF = ∠AEC [Proved]

Question 8:
Since AB || CD and BC is a transversal.
So, ∠BCD = ∠ABC = x^o     [Alternate angles]
As BC || ED and CD is a transversal.
∠BCD + ∠EDC = 180^o
⇒ ∠BCD + 75^o =180^o
⇒ ∠BCD = 180^o – 75^o = 105^o
∠ABC = 105^o                 [since ∠BCD = ∠ABC]
∴ x^o = ∠ABC = 105^o
Hence, x = 105.

Question 9:
Through F, draw KH || AB || CD

Now, KF || CD and FG is a transversal.
⇒ ∠KFG = ∠FGD = r^o …. (i)
[alternate angles]
Again AE || KF, and EF is a transversal.
So, ∠AEF + ∠KFE = 180^o
∠KFE = 180^o – p^o …. (ii)
Adding (i) and (ii) we get,
∠KFG + ∠KFE = 180 – p + r
⇒ ∠EFG = 180 – p + r
⇒ q = 180 – p + r
i.e., p + q – r = 180

Question 10:

Since AB || PQ and EF is a transversal.
So, ∠CEB = ∠EFQ                 [Corresponding angles]
⇒ ∠EFQ = 75^o
⇒ ∠EFG + ∠GFQ = 75^o
⇒ 25^o + y^o = 75^o
⇒ y = 75 – 25 = 50
Also, ∠BEF + ∠EFQ = 180^o   [sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
∠BEF = 180^o – ∠EFQ
= 180^o – 75^o
∠BEF = 105^o
∴ ∠FEG + ∠GEB = ∠BEF = 105^o
⇒ ∠FEG = 105^o – ∠GEB = 105^o – 20^o = 85^o
In ∆EFG we have,
x^o + 25^o + ∠FEG = 180^o

Hence, x = 70.

Question 11:
Since AB || CD and AC is a transversal.
So, ∠BAC + ∠ACD = 180^o   [sum of consecutive interior angles is 180^o]
⇒ ∠ACD = 180^o – ∠BAC
= 180^o – 75^o = 105^o
⇒ ∠ECF = ∠ACD                     [Vertically opposite angles]
∠ECF = 105^o
Now in ∆CEF,
∠ECF + ∠CEF + ∠EFC =180^o
⇒ 105^o + x^o + 30^o = 180^o
⇒ x = 180 – 30 – 105 = 45
_{Hence, x = 45.}

Question 12:
Since AB || CD and PQ a transversal.
So, ∠PEF = ∠EGH [Corresponding angles]
⇒ ∠EGH = 85^o
∠EGH and ∠QGH form a linear pair.
So, ∠EGH + ∠QGH = 180^o
⇒ ∠QGH = 180^o – 85^o = 95^o
Similarly, ∠GHQ + 115^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠GHQ = 180^o – 115^o = 65^o
In ∆GHQ, we have,
x^o + 65^o + 95^o = 180^o
⇒ x = 180 – 65 – 95 = 180 – 160
∴ x = 20

Question 13:

Since AB || CD and BC is a transversal.
So, ∠ABC = ∠BCD
⇒ x = 35
Also, AB || CD and AD is a transversal.
So, ∠BAD = ∠ADC
⇒ z = 75
In ∆ABO, we have,
∠AOB + ∠BAO + ∠BOA = 180^o
⇒ x^o + 75^o + y^o = 180^o
⇒ 35 + 75 + y = 180
⇒ y = 180 – 110 = 70
∴ x = 35, y = 70 and z = 75.

Question 14:

Since AB || CD and PQ is a transversal.
So, y = 75                             [Alternate angle]
Since PQ is a transversal and AB || CD, so x + APQ = 180^o
[Sum of consecutive interior angles]
⇒ x^o = 180^o – APQ
⇒ x = 180 – 75 = 105
Also, AB || CD and PR is a transversal.
So, ∠APR = ∠PRD                 [Alternate angle]
⇒ ∠APQ + ∠QPR = ∠PRD  [Since ∠APR = ∠APQ + ∠QPR]
⇒ 75^o + z^o = 125^o
⇒ z = 125 – 75 = 50
∴ x = 105, y = 75 and z = 50.

Question 15:
∠PRQ = x^o = 60^o            [vertically opposite angles]
Since EF || GH, and RQ is a transversal.
So, ∠x = ∠y                   [Alternate angles]
⇒ y = 60
AB || CD and PR is a transversal.
So, ∠PRD = ∠APR        [Alternate angles]
⇒ ∠PRQ + ∠QRD = ∠APR  [since ∠PRD = ∠PRQ + ∠QRD]
⇒ x + ∠QRD = 110^o
⇒ ∠QRD = 110^o – 60^o = 50^o
In ∆QRS, we have,
∠QRD + t^o + y^o = 180^o
⇒  50 + t + 60 = 180
⇒ t = 180 – 110 = 70
Since, AB || CD and GH is a transversal
So, z^o = t^o = 70^o [Alternate angles]
∴ x = 60 , y = 60, z = 70 and t = 70

Question 16:
(i) Lines l and m will be parallel if 3x – 20 = 2x + 10
[Since, if corresponding angles are equal, lines are parallel]
⇒ 3x – 2x = 10 + 20
⇒ x = 30
(ii) Lines will be parallel if (3x + 5)^o + 4x^o = 180^o
[if sum of pairs of consecutive interior angles is 180^o, the lines are parallel]
So, (3x + 5) + 4x = 180
⇒ 3x + 5 + 4x = 180
⇒ 7x = 180 – 5 = 175
⇒ x = [latex]frac { 175 }{ 7 }  [/latex] = 25

Question 17:
Given: Two lines m and n are perpendicular to a given line l.

To Prove: m || n
Proof : Since m ⊥ l
So, ∠1 = 90^o
Again, since n ⊥ l
∠2 = 90^o
∴ ∠1 = ∠2 = 90^o
But ∠1 and ∠2 are the corresponding angles made by the transversal l with lines m and n and they are proved to be equal.
Thus, m || n.

RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 9 Chapter 4 Exercise 4D

Question 1:
Since, sum of the angles of a triangle is 180^o
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠A + 76^o + 48^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠A = 180^o – 124^o = 56^o
∴ ∠A = 56^o

Question 2:
Let the measures of the angles of a triangle are (2x)^o, (3x)^o and (4x)^o.
Then, 2x + 3x + 4x = 180         [sum of the angles of a triangle is 180^o ]
⇒ 9x = 180
⇒ x = [latex]frac { 180 }{ 9 }  [/latex] = 20
∴ The measures of the required angles are:
2x = (2 × 20)^o = 40^o
3x = (3 × 20)^o = 60^o
4x = (4 × 20)^o = 80^o

Question 3:
Let 3∠A = 4∠B = 6∠C = x (say)
Then, 3∠A = x
⇒ ∠A = [latex s=2]frac { x }{ 3 }  [/latex]
4∠B = x
⇒ ∠B = [latex s=2]frac { x }{ 4 }  [/latex]
and 6∠C = x
⇒ ∠C = [latex s=2]frac { x }{ 6 }  [/latex]
As ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o

Question 4:
∠A + ∠B = 108^o [Given]
But as ∠A, ∠B and ∠C are the angles of a triangle,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 108^o + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ C = 180^o – 108^o = 72^o
Also, ∠B + ∠C = 130^o [Given]
⇒ ∠B + 72^o = 130^o
⇒ ∠B = 130^o – 72^o = 58^o
Now as, ∠A + ∠B = 108^o
⇒ ∠A + 58^o = 108^o
⇒ ∠A = 108^o – 58^o = 50^o
∴ ∠A = 50^o, ∠B = 58^o and ∠C = 72^o.

Question 5:
Since. ∠A , ∠B and ∠C are the angles of a triangle .
So, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
Now, ∠A + ∠B = 125^o [Given]
∴ 125^o + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠C = 180^o – 125^o = 55^o
Also, ∠A + ∠C = 113^o [Given]
⇒ ∠A + 55^o = 113^o
⇒ ∠A = 113^o – 55^o = 58^o
Now as ∠A + ∠B = 125^o
⇒ 58^o + ∠B = 125^o
⇒ ∠B = 125^o – 58^o = 67^o
∴ ∠A = 58^o, ∠B = 67^o and ∠C = 55^o.

Question 6:
Since, ∠P, ∠Q and ∠R are the angles of a triangle.
So, ∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 180^o ….(i)
Now, ∠P – ∠Q = 42^o [Given]
⇒ ∠P = 42^o + ∠Q ….(ii)
and ∠Q – ∠R = 21^o [Given]
⇒ ∠R = ∠Q – 21^o ….(iii)
Substituting the value of ∠P and ∠R from (ii) and (iii) in (i), we get,
⇒ 42^o + ∠Q + ∠Q + ∠Q – 21^o = 180^o
⇒ 3∠Q + 21^o = 180^o
⇒ 3∠Q = 180^o – 21^o = 159^o
∠Q = [latex]frac { 159 }{ 3 }  [/latex] = 53^o
∴ ∠P = 42^o + ∠Q
= 42^o + 53^o = 95^o
∠R = ∠Q – 21^o
= 53^o – 21^o = 32^o
∴ ∠P = 95^o, ∠Q = 53^o and ∠R = 32^o.

Question 7:
Given that the sum of the angles A and B of a ABC is 116^o, i.e., ∠A + ∠B = 116^o.
Since, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
So, 116^o + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠C = 180^o – 116^o = 64^o
Also, it is given that:
∠A – ∠B = 24^o
⇒ ∠A = 24^o + ∠B
Putting, ∠A = 24^o + ∠B in ∠A + ∠B = 116^o, we get,
⇒ 24^o + ∠B + ∠B = 116^o
⇒ 2∠B + 24^o = 116^o
⇒ 2∠B = 116^o – 24^o = 92^o
∠B = [latex]frac { 92 }{ 2 }  [/latex] = 46^o
Therefore, ∠A = 24^o + 46^o = 70^o
∴ ∠A = 70^o, ∠B = 46^o and ∠C = 64^o.

Question 8:
Let the two equal angles, A and B, of the triangle be x^o each.
We know,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ x^o + x^o + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 2x^o + ∠C = 180^o ….(i)
Also, it is given that,
∠C = x^o + 18^o ….(ii)
Substituting ∠C from (ii) in (i), we get,
⇒ 2x^o + x^o + 18^o = 180^o
⇒ 3x^o = 180^o – 18^o = 162^o
x = [latex]frac { 162 }{ 3 }  [/latex] = 54^o
Thus, the required angles of the triangle are 54^o, 54^o and x^o + 18^o = 54^o + 18^o = 72^o.

Question 9:
Let ∠C be the smallest angle of ABC.
Then, ∠A = 2∠C and B = 3∠C
Also, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 2∠C + 3∠C + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 6∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠C = 30^o
So, ∠A = 2∠C = 2 (30^o) = 60^o
∠B = 3∠C = 3 (30^o) = 90^o
∴ The required angles of the triangle are 60^o, 90^o, 30^o.

Question 10:
Let ABC be a right angled triangle and ∠C = 90^o
Since, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠A + ∠B = 180^o – ∠C = 180^o – 90^o = 90^o
Suppose ∠A = 53^o
Then, 53^o + ∠B = 90^o
⇒ ∠B = 90^o – 53^o = 37^o
∴ The required angles are 53^o, 37^o and 90^o.

Question 11:
Let ABC be a triangle.
Given, ∠A + ∠B = ∠C
We know, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠C + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 2∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠C = [latex]frac { 180 }{ 2 }  [/latex] = 90^o
So, we find that ABC is a right triangle, right angled at C.

Question 12:
Given : ∆ABC in which ∠A = 90^o, AL ⊥ BC
To Prove: ∠BAL = ∠ACB
Proof :
In right triangle ∆ABC,
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠BAC + ∠ACB = 180^o
⇒ ∠ABC + 90^o + ∠ACB = 180^o
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180^o – 90^o
∴ ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 90^o
⇒ ∠ACB = 90^o – ∠ABC   ….(1)
Similarly since ∆ABL is a right triangle, we find that,
∠BAL = 90^o – ∠ABC     …(2)
Thus from (1) and (2), we have
∴ ∠BAL = ∠ACB (Proved)

Question 13:
Let ABC be a triangle.
So, ∠A < ∠B + ∠C
Adding A to both sides of the inequality,
⇒ 2∠A < ∠A + ∠B + ∠C
⇒ 2∠A < 180^o        [Since ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o]
⇒ ∠A < [latex]frac { 180 }{ 2 }  [/latex] = 90^o
Similarly, ∠B < ∠A + ∠C
⇒ ∠B < 90^o
and ∠C < ∠A + ∠B
⇒ ∠C < 90^o
∆ABC is an acute angled triangle.

Question 14:
Let ABC be a triangle and ∠B > ∠A + ∠C
Since, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠A + ∠C = 180^o – ∠B
Therefore, we get
∠B > 180^o – ∠B
Adding ∠B on both sides of the inequality, we get,
⇒ ∠B + ∠B > 180^o – ∠B + ∠B
⇒ 2∠B > 180^o
⇒ ∠B > [latex]frac { 180 }{ 2 }  [/latex] = 90^o
i.e., ∠B > 90^o which means ∠B is an obtuse angle.
∆ABC is an obtuse angled triangle.

Question 15:
Since ∠ACB and ∠ACD form a linear pair.
So, ∠ACB + ∠ACD = 180^o
⇒ ∠ACB + 128^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠ACB = 180^o – 128 = 52^o
Also, ∠ABC + ∠ACB + ∠BAC = 180^o
⇒ 43^o + 52^o + ∠BAC = 180^o
⇒ 95^o + ∠BAC = 180^o
⇒ ∠BAC = 180^o – 95^o = 85^o
∴ ∠ACB = 52^o and ∠BAC = 85^o.

Question 16:
As ∠DBA and ∠ABC form a linear pair.
So, ∠DBA + ∠ABC = 180^o
⇒ 106^o + ∠ABC = 180^o
⇒ ∠ABC = 180^o – 106^o = 74^o
Also, ∠ACB and ∠ACE form a linear pair.
So, ∠ACB + ∠ACE = 180^o
⇒ ∠ACB + 118^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠ACB = 180^o – 118^o = 62^o
In ∠ABC, we have,
∠ABC + ∠ACB + ∠BAC = 180^o
74^o + 62^o + ∠BAC = 180^o
⇒ 136^o + ∠BAC = 180^o
⇒ ∠BAC = 180^o – 136^o = 44^o
∴ In triangle ABC, ∠A = 44^o, ∠B = 74^o and ∠C = 62^o

Question 17:
(i) ∠EAB + ∠BAC = 180^o [Linear pair angles]

110^o + ∠BAC = 180^o
⇒ ∠BAC = 180^o – 110^o = 70^o
Again, ∠BCA + ∠ACD = 180^o [Linear pair angles]
⇒ ∠BCA + 120^o = 180^o
⇒ ∠BCA = 180^o – 120^o = 60^o
Now, in ∆ABC,
∠ABC + ∠BAC + ∠ACB = 180^o
x^o + 70^o + 60^o = 180^o
⇒ x + 130^o = 180^o
⇒ x = 180^o – 130^o = 50^o
∴ x = 50
(ii)

In ∆ABC,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 30^o + 40^o + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 70^o + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ ∠C = 180^o – 70^o = 110^o
Now ∠BCA + ∠ACD = 180^o [Linear pair]
⇒ 110^o + ∠ACD = 180^o
⇒ ∠ACD = 180^o – 110^o = 70^o
In ∆ECD,
⇒ ∠ECD + ∠CDE + ∠CED = 180^o
⇒ 70^o + 50^o + ∠CED = 180^o
⇒ 120^o + ∠CED = 180^o
∠CED = 180^o – 120^o = 60^o
Since ∠AED and ∠CED from a linear pair
So, ∠AED + ∠CED = 180^o
⇒ x^o + 60^o = 180^o
⇒ x^o = 180^o – 60^o = 120^o
∴ x = 120
(iii)

∠EAF = ∠BAC [Vertically opposite angles]
⇒ ∠BAC = 60^o
In ∆ABC, exterior ∠ACD is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles.
So, ∠ACD = ∠BAC + ∠ABC
⇒ 115^o = 60^o + x^o
⇒ x^o = 115^o – 60^o = 55^o
∴ x = 55
(iv)

Since AB || CD and AD is a transversal.
So, ∠BAD = ∠ADC
⇒ ∠ADC = 60^o
In ∠ECD, we have,
∠E + ∠C + ∠D = 180^o
⇒ x^o + 45^o + 60^o = 180^o
⇒ x^o + 105^o = 180^o
⇒ x^o = 180^o – 105^o = 75^o
∴ x = 75
(v)

In ∆AEF,
Exterior ∠BED = ∠EAF + ∠EFA
⇒ 100^o = 40^o + ∠EFA
⇒ ∠EFA = 100^o – 40^o = 60^o
Also, ∠CFD = ∠EFA [Vertically Opposite angles]
⇒ ∠CFD = 60^o
Now in ∆FCD,
Exterior ∠BCF = ∠CFD + ∠CDF
⇒ 90^o = 60^o + x^o
⇒ x^o = 90^o – 60^o = 30^o
∴ x = 30
(vi)

In ∆ABE, we have,
∠A + ∠B + ∠E = 180^o
⇒ 75^o + 65^o + ∠E = 180^o
⇒ 140^o + ∠E = 180^o
⇒ ∠E = 180^o – 140^o = 40^o
Now, ∠CED = ∠AEB [Vertically opposite angles]
⇒ ∠CED = 40^o
Now, in ∆CED, we have,
∠C + ∠E + ∠D = 180^o
⇒ 110^o + 40^o + x^o = 180^o
⇒ 150^o + x^o = 180^o
⇒ x^o = 180^o – 150^o = 30^o
∴ x = 30

Question 18:
Produce CD to cut AB at E.

Now, in ∆BDE, we have,
Exterior ∠CDB = ∠CEB + ∠DBE
⇒ x^o = ∠CEB + 45^o     …..(i)
In ∆AEC, we have,
Exterior ∠CEB = ∠CAB + ∠ACE
= 55^o + 30^o = 85^o
Putting ∠CEB = 85^o in (i), we get,
x^o = 85^o + 45^o = 130^o
∴ x = 130

Question 19:
The angle ∠BAC is divided by AD in the ratio 1 : 3.
Let ∠BAD and ∠DAC be y and 3y, respectively.
As BAE is a straight line,
∠BAC + ∠CAE = 180^o        [linear pair]
⇒ ∠BAD + ∠DAC +  _∠CAE = 180^o
⇒ y + 3y + 108^o = 180^o
⇒ 4y = 180^o – 108^o = 72^o
⇒ y = [latex]frac { 72 }{ 4 }  [/latex] = 18^o
Now, in ∆ABC,
∠ABC + ∠BCA + ∠BAC = 180^o
y + x + 4y = 180^o
[Since, ∠ABC = ∠BAD (given AD = DB) and ∠BAC = y + 3y = 4y]
⇒ 5y + x = 180
⇒ 5 × 18 + x = 180
⇒ 90 + x = 180
∴ x = 180 – 90 = 90

Question 20:
Given : A ∆ABC in which BC, CA and AB are produced to D, E and F respectively.
To prove : Exterior ∠DCA + Exterior ∠BAE + Exterior ∠FBD = 360^o
Proof : Exterior ∠DCA = ∠A + ∠B ….(i)
Exterior ∠FAE = ∠B + ∠C ….(ii)
Exterior ∠FBD = ∠A + ∠C ….(iii)
Adding (i), (ii) and (iii), we get,
Ext. ∠DCA + Ext. ∠FAE + Ext. ∠FBD
= ∠A + ∠B + ∠B + ∠C + ∠A + ∠C
= 2∠A + 2∠B + 2∠C
= 2 (∠A + ∠B + ∠C)
= 2 × 180^o
[Since, in triangle the sum of all three angle is 180^o]
= 360^o
Hence, proved.

Question 21:
In ∆ACE, we have,
∠A + ∠C + ∠E = 180^o ….(i)
In ∆BDF, we have,
∠B + ∠D + ∠F = 180^o ….(ii)
Adding both sides of (i) and (ii), we get,
∠A + ∠C +∠E + ∠B + ∠D + ∠F = 180^o + 180^o
⇒ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D + ∠E + ∠F = 360^o.

Question 22:
Given : In ∆ABC, bisectors of ∠B and ∠C meet at O and ∠A = 70^o
In ∆BOC, we have,

∠BOC + ∠OBC + ∠OCB = 180^o
= 180^o – 55^o = 125^o
∴ ∠BOC = 125^o.

Question 23:
We have a ∆ABC whose sides AB and AC have been procued to D and E. A = 40^o and bisectors of ∠CBD and ∠BCE meet at O.
In ∆ABC, we have,
Exterior ∠CBD = C + 40^o

And exterior ∠BCE = B + 40^o

Now, in ∆BCO, we have,

= 50^o + 20^o
= 70^o
Thus, ∠BOC = 70^o

Question 24:
In the given ∆ABC, we have,
∠A : ∠B : ∠C = 3 : 2 : 1
Let ∠A = 3x, ∠B = 2x, ∠C = x. Then,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o
⇒ 3x + 2x + x = 180^o
⇒ 6x = 180^o
⇒ x = 30^o
∠A = 3x = 3 30^o = 90^o
∠B = 2x = 2 30^o = 60^o
and, ∠C = x = 30^o
Now, in ∆ABC, we have,
Ext ∠ACE = ∠A + ∠B = 90^o + 60^o = 150^o
∠ACD + ∠ECD = 150^o
⇒ ∠ECD = 150^o – ∠ACD
⇒ ∠ECD = 150^o – 90^o    [since , AD ⊥ CD, ∠ACD = 90^o]
⇒ ∠ECD= 60^o

Question 25:
In ∆ABC, AN is the bisector of ∠A and AM ⊥ BC.
Now in ∆ABC we have;
∠A = 180^o – ∠B – ∠C
⇒ ∠A = 180^o – 65^o – 30^o
= 180^o – 95^o
= 85^o
Now, in ∆ANC we have;

Thus, ∠MAN =
