Exercise 8.1
Question 1: Write the complement of each of the following angles:
(i)200
(ii)350
(iii)900
(iv) 770
(v)300
Solution:
(i) The sum of an angle and its complement = 900
Therefore, the complement of 200 = 900 – 200 = 700
(ii) The sum of an angle and its complement = 900
Therefore, the complement of 35° = 90° – 35° = 55
(iii) The sum of an angle and its complement = 900
Therefore, the complement of 900 = 900 – 900 = 00
(iv) The sum of an angle and its complement = 900
Therefore, the complement of 770 = 90° – 770 = 130
(v) The sum of an angle and its complement = 900
Therefore, the complement of 300 = 900 – 300 = 600
Question 2 : Write the supplement of each of the following angles:
(i) 540
(ii) 1320
(iii) 1380
Solution:
(i) The sum of an angle and its supplement = 1800.
Therefore supplement of angle 540 = 1800 – 540 = 1260
(ii) The sum of an angle and its supplement = 1800.
Therefore supplement of angle 1320 = 1800 – 1320 = 480
(iii) The sum of an angle and its supplement = 1800.
Therefore supplement of angle 1380 = 1800 – 1380 = 420
Question 3: If an angle is 280 less than its complement, find its measure?
Solution:
Let the measure of any angle is ‘ a ‘ degrees
Thus, its complement will be (90 – a) 0
So, the required angle = Complement of a – 28
a = ( 90 – a ) – 28
2a = 62
a = 31
Hence, the angle measured is 310.
Question 4 : If an angle is 30° more than one half of its complement, find the measure of the angle?
Solution:
Let an angle measured by ‘ a ‘ in degrees
Thus, its complement will be (90 – a) 0
Required Angle = 300 + complement/2
a = 300 + ( 90 – a ) 0 / 2
a + a/2 = 300 + 450
3a/2 = 750
a = 500
Therefore, the measure of required angle is 500.
Question 5 : Two supplementary angles are in the ratio 4:5. Find the angles?
Solution:
Two supplementary angles are in the ratio 4:5.
Let us say, the angles are 4a and 5a (in degrees)
Since angle are supplementary angles;
Which implies, 4a + 5a = 1800
9a = 1800
a = 200
Therefore, 4a = 4 (20) = 800 and
5(a) = 5 (20) = 1000
Hence, required angles are 80° and 1000.
Question 6 : Two supplementary angles differ by 480. Find the angles?
Solution: Given: Two supplementary angles differ by 480.
Consider a0 be one angle then its supplementary angle will be equal to (180 – a) 0
According to the question;
(180 – a ) – x = 48
(180 – 48 ) = 2a
132 = 2a
132/2 = a
Or a = 660
Therefore, 180 – a = 1140
Hence, the two angles are 660 and 1140.
Question 7: An angle is equal to 8 times its complement. Determine its measure?
Solution: Given: Required angle = 8 times of its complement
Consider a0 be one angle then its complementary angle will be equal to (90 – a) 0
According to the question;
a = 8 times of its complement
a = 8 ( 90 – a )
a = 720 – 8a
a + 8a = 720
9a = 720
a = 80
Therefore, the required angle is 800.
Exercise 8.2
Question 1: In the below Fig. OA and OB are opposite rays:
(i) If x = 250, what is the value of y?
(ii) If y = 350, what is the value of x?
Solution:
(i) Given: x = 25
From figure: ∠AOC and ∠BOC form a linear pair
Which implies, ∠AOC + ∠BOC = 1800
From the figure, ∠AOC = 2y + 5 and ∠BOC = 3x
∠AOC + ∠BOC = 1800
(2y + 5) + 3x = 180
(2y + 5) + 3 (25) = 180
2y + 5 + 75 = 180
2y + 80 = 180
2y = 100
y = 100/2 = 50
Therefore, y = 500
(ii) Given: y = 350
From figure: ∠AOC + ∠BOC = 180° (Linear pair angles)
(2y + 5) + 3x = 180
(2(35) + 5) + 3x = 180
75 + 3x = 180
3x = 105
x = 35
Therefore, x = 350
Question 2: In the below figure, write all pairs of adjacent angles and all the linear pairs.
Solution: From figure, pairs of adjacent angles are :
(∠AOC, ∠COB) ; (∠AOD, ∠BOD) ; (∠AOD, ∠COD) ; (∠BOC, ∠COD)
And Linear pair of angles are (∠AOD, ∠BOD) and (∠AOC, ∠BOC).[As ∠AOD + ∠BOD = 1800 and ∠AOC+ ∠BOC = 1800.]
Question 3 : In the given figure, find x. Further find ∠BOC , ∠COD and ∠AOD.
Solution:
From figure, ∠AOD and ∠BOD form a linear pair,
Therefore, ∠AOD+ ∠BOD = 1800
Also, ∠AOD + ∠BOC + ∠COD = 1800
Given: ∠AOD = (x+10) 0 , ∠COD = x0 and ∠BOC = (x + 20) 0
( x + 10 ) + x + ( x + 20 ) = 180
3x + 30 = 180
3x = 180 – 30
x = 150/3
x = 500
Now,
∠AOD=(x+10) =50 + 10 = 60
∠COD = x = 50
∠BOC = (x+20) = 50 + 20 = 70
Hence, ∠AOD=600, ∠COD=500 and ∠BOC=700
Question 4: In figure, rays OA, OB, OC, OD and OE have the common end point 0. Show that ∠AOB+∠BOC+∠COD+∠DOE+∠EOA=360°.
Solution:
Given: Rays OA, OB, OC, OD and OE have the common endpoint O.
Draw an opposite ray OX to ray OA, which make a straight line AX.
From figure:
∠AOB and ∠BOX are linear pair angles, therefore,
∠AOB +∠BOX = 1800
Or, ∠AOB + ∠BOC + ∠COX = 1800 —–—–(1)
Also,
∠AOE and ∠EOX are linear pair angles, therefore,
∠AOE+∠EOX =180°
Or, ∠AOE + ∠DOE + ∠DOX = 1800 —–(2)
By adding equations, (1) and (2), we get;
∠AOB + ∠BOC + ∠COF + ∠AOE + ∠DOE + ∠DOX = 1800 + 1800
∠AOB + ∠BOC + ∠COD + ∠DOE + ∠EOA = 3600
Hence Proved.
Question 5 : In figure, ∠AOC and ∠BOC form a linear pair. If a – 2b = 30°, find a and b?
Solution:
Given : ∠AOC and ∠BOC form a linear pair.
=> a + b = 1800 …..(1)
a – 2b = 300 …(2) (given)
On subtracting equation (2) from (1), we get
a + b – a + 2b = 180 – 30
3b = 150
b = 150/3
b = 500
Since, a – 2b = 300
a – 2(50) = 30
a = 30 + 100
a = 1300
Therefore, the values of a and b are 130° and 50° respectively.
Question 6: How many pairs of adjacent angles are formed when two lines intersect at a point?
Solution: Four pairs of adjacent angles are formed when two lines intersect each other at a single point.
For example, Let two lines AB and CD intersect at point O.
The 4 pair of adjacent angles are :
(∠AOD,∠DOB),(∠DOB,∠BOC),(∠COA, ∠AOD) and (∠BOC,∠COA).
Question 7: How many pairs of adjacent angles, in all, can you name in figure given?
Solution: Number of Pairs of adjacent angles, from the figure, are :
∠EOC and ∠DOC
∠EOD and ∠DOB
∠DOC and ∠COB
∠EOD and ∠DOA
∠DOC and ∠COA
∠BOC and ∠BOA
∠BOA and ∠BOD
∠BOA and ∠BOE
∠EOC and ∠COA
∠EOC and ∠COB
Hence, there are 10 pairs of adjacent angles.
Question 8: In figure, determine the value of x.
Solution:
The sum of all the angles around a point O is equal to 360°.
Therefore,
3x + 3x + 150 + x = 3600
7x = 3600 – 1500
7x = 2100
x = 210/7
x = 300
Hence, the value of x is 30°.
Question 9: In figure, AOC is a line, find x.
Solution:
From the figure, ∠AOB and ∠BOC are linear pairs,
∠AOB +∠BOC =180°
70 + 2x = 180
2x = 180 – 70
2x = 110
x = 110/2
x = 55
Therefore, the value of x is 550.
Question 10: In figure, POS is a line, find x.
Solution:
From figure, ∠POQ and ∠QOS are linear pairs.
Therefore,
∠POQ + ∠QOS=1800
∠POQ + ∠QOR+∠SOR=1800
600 + 4x +400 = 1800
4x = 1800 -1000
4x = 800
x = 200
Hence, the value of x is 200.
Exercise 8.3
Question 1: In figure, lines l1, and l2 intersect at O, forming angles as shown in the figure. If x = 45. Find the values of y, z and u.
Solution:
Given: x = 450
Since vertically opposite angles are equal, therefore z = x = 450
z and u are angles that are a linear pair, therefore, z + u = 1800
Solve, z + u = 1800 , for u
u = 1800 – z
u = 1800 – 45
u = 1350
Again, x and y angles are a linear pair.
x+ y = 1800
y = 1800 – x
y =1800 – 450
y = 1350
Hence, remaining angles are y = 1350, u = 1350 and z = 450.
Question 2 : In figure, three coplanar lines intersect at a point O, forming angles as shown in the figure. Find the values of x, y, z and u .
Solution:
(∠BOD, z); (∠DOF, y ) are pair of vertically opposite angles.
So, ∠BOD = z = 900
∠DOF = y = 500[Vertically opposite angles are equal.]
Now, x + y + z = 180 [Linear pair] [AB is a straight line]
x + y + z = 180
x + 50 + 90 = 180
x = 180 – 140
x = 40
Hence values of x, y, z and u are 400, 500, 900 and 400 respectively.
Question 3 : In figure, find the values of x, y and z.
Solution:
From figure,
y = 250 [Vertically opposite angles are equal]
Now ∠x + ∠y = 1800 [Linear pair of angles]
x = 180 – 25
x = 155
Also, z = x = 155 [Vertically opposite angles]
Answer: y = 250 and z = 1550
Question 4 : In figure, find the value of x.
Solution:
∠AOE = ∠BOF = 5x [Vertically opposite angles]
∠COA+∠AOE+∠EOD = 1800 [Linear pair]
3x + 5x + 2x = 180
10x = 180
x = 180/10
x = 18
The value of x = 180
Question 5 : Prove that bisectors of a pair of vertically opposite angles are in the same straight line.
Solution:
Lines AB and CD intersect at point O, such that
∠AOC = ∠BOD (vertically angles) …(1)
Also OP is the bisector of AOC and OQ is the bisector of BOD
To Prove: POQ is a straight line.
OP is the bisector of ∠AOC:
∠AOP = ∠COP …(2)
OQ is the bisector of ∠BOD:
∠BOQ = ∠QOD …(3)
Now,
Sum of the angles around a point is 360o.
∠AOC + ∠BOD + ∠AOP + ∠COP + ∠BOQ + ∠QOD = 3600
∠BOQ + ∠QOD + ∠DOA + ∠AOP + ∠POC + ∠COB = 3600
2∠QOD + 2∠DOA + 2∠AOP = 3600 (Using (1), (2) and (3))
∠QOD + ∠DOA + ∠AOP = 1800
POQ = 1800
Which shows that, the bisectors of pair of vertically opposite angles are on the same straight line.
Hence Proved.
Question 6 : If two straight lines intersect each other, prove that the ray opposite to the bisector of one of the angles thus formed bisects the vertically opposite angle.
Solution: Given AB and CD are straight lines which intersect at O.
OP is the bisector of ∠ AOC.
To Prove : OQ is the bisector of ∠BOD
Proof :
AB, CD and PQ are straight lines which intersect in O.
Vertically opposite angles: ∠ AOP = ∠ BOQ
Vertically opposite angles: ∠ COP = ∠ DOQ
OP is the bisector of ∠ AOC : ∠ AOP = ∠ COP
Therefore, ∠BOQ = ∠ DOQ
Hence, OQ is the bisector of ∠BOD.
Exercise 8.4
Question 1: In figure, AB, CD and ∠1 and ∠2 are in the ratio 3 : 2. Determine all angles from 1 to 8.
Solution:
Let ∠1 = 3x and ∠2 = 2x
From figure: ∠1 and ∠2 are linear pair of angles
Therefore, ∠1 + ∠2 = 180
3x + 2x = 180
5x = 180
x = 180 / 5
=> x = 36
So, ∠1 = 3x = 1080 and ∠2 = 2x = 720
As we know, vertically opposite angles are equal.
Pairs of vertically opposite angles are:
(∠1 = ∠3); (∠2 = ∠4) ; (∠5, ∠7) and (∠6 , ∠8)
∠1 = ∠3 = 108°
∠2 = ∠4 = 72°
∠5 = ∠7
∠6 = ∠8
We also know, if a transversal intersects any parallel lines, then the corresponding angles are equal
∠1 = ∠5 = ∠7 = 108°
∠2 = ∠6 = ∠8 = 72°
Answer: ∠1 = 108°, ∠2 = 72°, ∠3 = 108°, ∠4 = 72°, ∠5 = 108°, ∠6 = 72°, ∠7 = 108° and ∠8 = 72°
Question 2: In figure, I, m and n are parallel lines intersected by transversal p at X, Y and Z respectively. Find ∠1, ∠2 and ∠3.
Solution: From figure:
∠Y = 120° [Vertical opposite angles]
∠3 + ∠Y = 180° [Linear pair angles theorem]
=> ∠3= 180 – 120
=> ∠3= 60°
Line l is parallel to line m,
∠1 = ∠3 [ Corresponding angles]
∠1 = 60°
Also, line m is parallel to line n,
∠2 = ∠Y [Alternate interior angles are equal]
∠2 = 120°
Answer: ∠1 = 60°, ∠2 = 120° and ∠3 = 60°.
Question 3: In figure, AB || CD || EF and GH || KL. Find ∠HKL.
Solution:
Extend LK to meet line GF at point P.
From figure, CD || GF, so, alternate angles are equal.
∠CHG =∠HGP = 60°
∠HGP =∠KPF = 60° [Corresponding angles of parallel lines are equal]
Hence, ∠KPG =180 – 60 = 120°
=> ∠GPK = ∠AKL= 120° [Corresponding angles of parallel lines are equal]
∠AKH = ∠KHD = 25° [alternate angles of parallel lines]
Therefore, ∠HKL = ∠AKH + ∠AKL = 25 + 120 = 145°
Question 4: In figure, show that AB || EF.
Solution: Produce EF to intersect AC at point N.
From figure, ∠BAC = 57° and
∠ACD = 22°+35° = 57°
Alternative angles of parallel lines are equal
=> BA || EF …..(1)
Sum of Co-interior angles of parallel lines is 180°
EF || CD
∠DCE + ∠CEF = 35 + 145 = 180° …(2)
From (1) and (2)
AB || EF[Since, Lines parallel to the same line are parallel to each other]
Hence Proved.
Question 5 : In figure, if AB || CD and CD || EF, find ∠ACE.
Solution:
Given: CD || EF
∠ FEC + ∠ECD = 180°[Sum of co-interior angles is supplementary to each other]
=> ∠ECD = 180° – 130° = 50°
Also, BA || CD
=> ∠BAC = ∠ACD = 70°[Alternative angles of parallel lines are equal]
But, ∠ACE + ∠ECD =70°
=> ∠ACE = 70° — 50° = 20°
Question 6: In figure, PQ || AB and PR || BC. If ∠QPR = 102°, determine ∠ABC. Give reasons.
Solution: Extend line AB to meet line PR at point G.
Given: PQ || AB,
∠QPR = ∠BGR =102°[Corresponding angles of parallel lines are equal]
And PR || BC,
∠RGB+ ∠CBG =180°[Corresponding angles are supplementary]
∠CBG = 180° – 102° = 78°
Since, ∠CBG = ∠ABC
=>∠ABC = 78°
Question 7 : In figure, state which lines are parallel and why?
Solution:
We know, If a transversal intersects two lines such that a pair of alternate interior angles are equal, then the two lines are parallel
From figure:
=> ∠EDC = ∠DCA = 100°
Lines DE and AC are intersected by a transversal DC such that the pair of alternate angles are equal.
So, DE || AC
Question 8: In figure, if l||m, n || p and ∠1 = 85°, find ∠2.
Solution:
Given: ∠1 = 85°
As we know, when a line cuts the parallel lines, the pair of alternate interior angles are equal.
=> ∠1 = ∠3 = 85°
Again, co-interior angles are supplementary, so
∠2 + ∠3 = 180°
∠2 + 55° =180°
∠2 = 180° – 85°
∠2 = 95°
Question 9 : If two straight lines are perpendicular to the same line, prove that they are parallel to each other.
Solution:
Let lines l and m are perpendicular to n, then
∠1= ∠2=90°
Since, lines l and m cut by a transversal line n and the corresponding angles are equal, which shows that, line l is parallel to line m.
Question 10: Prove that if the two arms of an angle are perpendicular to the two arms of another angle, then the angles are either equal or supplementary.
Solution: Let the angles be ∠ACB and ∠ABD
Let AC perpendicular to AB, and CD is perpendicular to BD.
To Prove : ∠ACD = ∠ABD OR ∠ACD + ∠ABD =180°
Proof :
In a quadrilateral,
∠A+ ∠C+ ∠D+ ∠B = 360°[ Sum of angles of quadrilateral is 360° ]
=> 180° + ∠C + ∠B = 360°
=> ∠C + ∠B = 360° –180°
Therefore, ∠ACD + ∠ABD = 180°
And ∠ABD = ∠ACD = 90°
Hence, angles are equal as well as supplementary.

About RD Sharma
RD Sharma isn’t the kind of author you’d bump into at lit fests. But his bestselling books have helped many CBSE students lose their dread of maths. Sunday Times profiles the tutor turned internet star
He dreams of algorithms that would give most people nightmares. And, spends every waking hour thinking of ways to explain concepts like ‘series solution of linear differential equations’. Meet Dr Ravi Dutt Sharma — mathematics teacher and author of 25 reference books — whose name evokes as much awe as the subject he teaches. And though students have used his thick tomes for the last 31 years to ace the dreaded maths exam, it’s only recently that a spoof video turned the tutor into a YouTube star.
R D Sharma had a good laugh but said he shared little with his on-screen persona except for the love for maths. “I like to spend all my time thinking and writing about maths problems. I find it relaxing,” he says. When he is not writing books explaining mathematical concepts for classes 6 to 12 and engineering students, Sharma is busy dispensing his duty as vice-principal and head of department of science and humanities at Delhi government’s Guru Nanak Dev Institute of Technology.
