Maharashtra Board 9th Maths Chapter 2.2, Class 9 Maths Chapter 2.2 solutions

Question 1.
In the given figure, y = 108° and x = 71°. Are the lines m and n parallel? Justify?
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 1
Solution:

y = 108°, x = 71° …[Given]
x + y = 71° + 108°
= 179°
∴ x + y = 180°
∴ The angles x andy are not supplementary.
∴ The angles do not satisfy the interior angles test for parallel lines
∴ line m and line n are not parallel lines.

Question 2.
In the given figure, if ∠a = ∠b then prove that line l || line m.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 2
Given: ∠a ≅ ∠b
To prove: line l| line m
Solution:

Proof:
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 3
consider ∠c as shown in the figure ∠a ≅ ∠c …….. (i) [Vertically opposite angles]
But, ∠a ≅ ∠b I (ii) [Given]
∴ ∠b ≅ ∠c [From (i) and (ii)]
But, ∠b and ∠c are corresponding angles on lines l and m when line n is the transversal.
∴ line l || line m. [Corresponding angles test]

Question 3.
In the given figure, if ∠a ≅ ∠b and ∠x ≅ ∠y, then prove that line l | line n.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 4
Given: ∠a ≅ ∠b and ∠x ≅ ∠y
To prove: line l | line n
Solution:
Proof:
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 5
∠a = ∠b [Given]
But, ∠a and ∠b are corresponding angles on lines l and m when line k is the transversal.
∴ line l || line m ….(i) [Corresponding angles test]
∠x ≅ ∠y [Given]
But, ∠x and ∠y are alternate angles on lines m and n when seg PQ is the transversal,
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 6
∴ line m || line n ……(ii) [Alternate angles test]
∴ From (i) and (ii),
line l || line m || line n
i.e., line l || line n

Question 4.
In the given figure, if ray BA || ray DE, ∠C = 50° and ∠D = 100°. Find the measure of ∠ABC.
(Hint: Draw a line passing through point C and parallel to line AB.)
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 7
Solution:
Draw a line FG passing through point
C and parallel to line AB
line FG || ray BA …….(i) [Construction]
Ray BA || ray DE ….(ii) [Given]
line FG || ray BA || ray DE …(iii) [From (i) and (ii)]
line FG||rayDE [From (iii)]
and seg DC is their transvensal
∴ ∠ DCF = ∠ EDC [Alternate angles]
∴ ∠ DCF = 100° [∵ ∠D = 100°]
Now, ∠ DCF = ∠ BCF + ∠ BCD [Angle addition property]
∴ 100° = ∠BCF + 50°
∴ 100° – 50° = ∠BCF
∴ ∠BCF = 50° ….(iv)
Now, line FG || ray BA and seg BC is their transversal.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 8
∴ ∠ABC + ∠BCF = 180° [Interior angles]
∴ ∠ABC + 50° = 180° [From (iv)]
∴ ∠ABC = 180°- 50°
∴ ∠ABC = 130°

Question 5.
In the given figure, ray AE || ray BD, ray AF is the bisector of ∠EAB and ray BC is the bisector of ∠ABD. Prove that line AF || line BC.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 9
Given: Ray AE || ray BD, and
ray AF and ray BC are the bisectors of ∠EAB and ∠ABD respectively.
To prove: line AF || line BC
Solution:
Proof:
Ray AE || ray BD and seg AB is their transversal.
∴ ∠EAB = ∠ABD ….(i) [Alternate angles]
∠FAB = 12∠EAB [Ray AF bisects ∠EAB]
∴ 2∠FAB = ∠EAB …..(ii)
∠CBA = 12∠ABD [Ray BC bisects ∠ABD]
∴ 2∠CBA = ∠ABD …(iii)
∴ 2∠FAB = 2∠CBA [From (i), (ii) and (iii)]
∴ ∠FAB = ∠CBA
But, ∠FAB and ∠ABC are alternate angles on lines AF and BC when seg AB is the transversal.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 10
∴ line AF || line BC [Alternate angles test]

Question 6.
A transversal EF of line AB and line CD intersects the lines at points P and Q respectively. Ray PR and ray QS are parallel and bisectors of ∠BPQ and ∠PQC respectively. Prove that line AB || line CD.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 11
Given: Ray PR || ray QS
Ray PR and ray QS are the bisectors of ∠BPQ and ∠PQC respectively.
To prove: line AB || line CD
Solution:
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 12
Proof:
Ray PR || ray QS and seg PQ is their transversal.
∠RPQ = ∠SQP ….(i) [Alternate angles]
∠RPQ = 12∠BPQ …. (ii) [Ray PR bisects ∠BPQ]
∠SQP = 12∠PQC [Ray QS bisects ∠PQC]
∴ 12∠BPQ = 12∠PQC
∴ ∠BPQ = ∠PQC
But, ∠BPQ and ∠PQC are alternate angles on lines AB and CD when line EF is the transversal.
∴ line AB || line CD [Alternate angles test]

Question 1.
In the given figure, how will you decide whether line ¡ and line m are parallel or not? (Textbook pg. no. 19)
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Parallel Lines Practice Set 2.2 13
Answer:

In the figure, we observe that line I and line m are coplanar and do not intersect each other.
∴ Line l and line m are parallel lines.

About Maharashtra State Board (MSBSHSE)

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education or MSBSHSE (Marathi: महाराष्ट्र राज्य माध्यमिक आणि उच्च माध्यमिक शिक्षण मंडळ), is an autonomous and statutory body established in 1965. The board was amended in the year 1977 under the provisions of the Maharashtra Act No. 41 of 1965.

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary & Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE), Pune is an independent body of the Maharashtra Government. There are more than 1.4 million students that appear in the examination every year. The Maha State Board conducts the board examination twice a year. This board conducts the examination for SSC and HSC. 

The Maharashtra government established the Maharashtra State Bureau of Textbook Production and Curriculum Research, also commonly referred to as Ebalbharati, in 1967 to take up the responsibility of providing quality textbooks to students from all classes studying under the Maharashtra State Board. MSBHSE prepares and updates the curriculum to provide holistic development for students. It is designed to tackle the difficulty in understanding the concepts with simple language with simple illustrations. Every year around 10 lakh students are enrolled in schools that are affiliated with the Maharashtra State Board.
