Maths
Chapter 6-Lines and Angles
Exercise-6.1
1. In the given figure, lines AB and CD intersect at O. if AOC+BOE=70o
and BOD=40o find BOE and reflex COE

Ans: AB is a straight line, OC and OE are rays from O.


We know that a straight line covers 180
 AOC+COE+BOE=180
By clubbing AOC and BOE together we can rewrite the above equation as
 ( AOC+BOE ) + COE=180
Putting AOC+BOE=70
.  COE=180 -70
 COE=110
Hence reflex COE=360 -110
reflexCOE=250
Similarly CD is a straight line, OB and OE are rays from O.
We know that a straight line covers 180
 BOD+COE+BOE=180

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 1


`

 40 +110 +BOE=180
 BOE=180 - ( 40 +110 )
 BOE=180 -150
 BOE=30
Hence BOE=30 and reflex COE=250

2.In the given figure, lines XY and MN intersect at O. If POY=90o and a: b


= 2:3, find c.

Ans: Let the common ratio between a and b be x.


 a = 2x , and b = 3x
XY is a straight line, OM and OP are rays from O.
We know that a straight line covers 180
XOM +MOP +POY = 180o
Putting values for XOM=b andMOP=a
 b + a +POY = 180o
 3x + 2x +POY = 180o
 5x = 90o
 x = 18o
a = 2x
 a = 2  18
= 36

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 2


`

b = 3x
 b = 3 18
= 54
Similarly MN is a straight line, OX is a ray from O
 b+c=180
54o + c = 180o
c = 180 − 54
c = 126

3.In the given figure, PQR=PRQ , then prove that PQS=PRT .

Ans: ST is a straight line, QP is a line segment from Q in ST to any point P


by Linear Pair property
PQS+PQR=180o
 PQR=180o -PQS ......(1 )
Similarly
PRT + PRQ = 180
 PRQ=180o -PRT ......( 2 )
Now in the question it is given that PQR=PRQ
Therefore on equating equation (1 ) and ( 2 ) we get
180o -PQS=180o -PRT
 PQS=PRT
Hence proved

4.In the given figure, if x+y=w+z then prove that AOB is a line.

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 3


`

Ans: It can be observed that,


Since there are 360 around a point therefore we can write
x + y + z + w = 360
It is given that,
x+y=w+z
Therefore writing x+y in place of w+z so that we can eliminate w and z, we get
x + y + x + y = 360
2 ( x + y ) = 360
x + y = 180
Since x and y form a linear pair, hence we can say that AOB is a line.
Hence proved

5.In the given figure, POQ is a line. Ray OR is perpendicular to line PQ. OS is
another ray lying between rays OP and OR. Prove that
1
ROS= ( QOS-POS )
2

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 4


`

Ans: Since OR ⊥ PQ therefore


POR=90o
POS + ROS = 90
 ROS=90o -POS ...... (1 )
Similarly QOR=90o (Since OR^PQ )
QOS-ROS=90o
 ROS=QOS-90o ......( 2 )
We can clearly see that on adding equation (1 ) and ( 2 ) 90 get canceled out
 2ROS=QOS-POS
Which can easily be written as
1
 ROS= ( ROS-POS)
2
Hence proved

6.It is given that ÐXYZ=64o and XY is produced to point P. Draw a figure


from the given information. If ray YQ bisects ÐZYP , find ÐXYQ and
reflex ÐQYP .
Ans: It is given that line YQ bisects ZYP .
Hence, QYP=ZYQ
It can easily be understood that PX is a line, YQ and YZ being rays standing on it.
XYZ+ZYQ+QYP=180o
From above relation QYP=ZYQ we can write
64o +2QYP=180o

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 5


`

 2QYP=180o -64o
 QYP=58
Therefore ZYQ=58
Also Reflex QYP=302
Now we can write XYQ as below
XYQ=XYZ+ZYQ
64 + 58 = 122

Therefore we found XYQ=122 and so the Reflex QYP=302

Exercise-6.2
1.In the given figure, find the values of x and y and then show that AB CD.

Ans: From the figure it is clear that,


50 + x = 180 (Linear Pair)
 x=130o ......(1 )

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 6


`

Also, from the figure it is clear that y = 130 (since vertically opposite angles are
equal)Similarly we can see that x and y are alternate interior angles for lines AB
and CD and so measures of these angles are equal to each other.
Therefore, line AB || CD.
Hence proved.

2.In the given figure, if AB CD, CD EF and y: z = 3:7, find x.

Ans: It is given that AB CD and CD EF


 AB CD EF (Lines parallel to other fixed line are parallel to each other)
It can easily be understood that
x=z (since alternate interior angles are equal) ...... ( 1 )
It is given that y: z = 3: 7
Without any loss of generality we can let y=3a and z=7a
Also, x+y=180o (Co-interior angles together sum up to 180 )
From equation (1 ) we can write z in place of x as shown
z+y=180o
It can further written as shown
7a + 3a = 180
 10a=180o
 a=18o
 x=7×18o
 x=126o

3.In the given figure, If AB CD, EF ⊥ CD and GED=126o , find AGE ,


GEF and FGE .

Ans: We are given that,


AB CD and EF ⊥ CD and
GED=126o
Which can be written as
 GEF+FED=126o
 GEF+90o =126o
Hence we can obtain ÐGEF as shown below
 GEF=126o -90o
 GEF=36
AGE=GED=126o (∠AGE and ∠GED are alternate interior angles)
But AGE+FGE=180o (because these form a linear pair)
 126o +FGE=180o
 FGE=180o -126o
 FGE=54o
Hence, we found AGE=126o , GEF=36o , FGE=54o

4.In the given figure, if PQ ST, PQR=110o and RST=130o , find QRS .
[Hint: Draw a line parallel to ST through point R.]

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 8


`

Ans:

In this question we will have some construction of our own, we draw a line XY
parallel to ST and so parallel to PQ passing through point R.
PQR+QRX=180o (Co-interior angles on the same side of transversal QR
together sum up to 180 )
110o +QRX=180o
 QRX=70o
Also,
RST+SRY=180 (sum of Co-interior angles on the same side of transversal
SR equals 180 )
 SRY=180 -130
 SRY=50
Now from the construction XY is a straight line. RQ and RS are rays from it.
QRX+QRS+SRY=180
 70 + QRS + 50 = 180
Hence we found that

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 9


`

QRS=60

5.In the given figure, if AB CD, APQ = 50 and PRD = 127 , find x and y.

Ans: APR = PRD (since alternate interior angles are equal)


 50 + y = 127 (since APR = APQ+PQR )
 y=77
similarly,
APQ=PQR ∠APQ = ∠PQR (since alternate interior angles are equal)
 x=50
Therefore we found that x=50 and y=77

6.In the given 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 atC and again reflects back along CD.
Prove that AB||CD.

Ans:

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 10


`

Let us construct BM ⊥ PQ and CN ⊥ RS.


Since PQ RS, and so BM CN
Therefore, CN and BM are two parallel lines and a transversal line BC cuts them
at B and C respectively.
∠2 = ∠3......(1 ) (since alternate interior angles are equal)
But, by laws of reflection in Physics
∠1 = ∠2 and ∠3 = ∠4
Now from equation (1 )
∠1 = ∠2 = ∠3 = ∠4
Therefore
∠1 + ∠2 = ∠3 + ∠4
ABC=  DCB
But, these are alternate interior angles.
 AB CD
Hence proved.

Exercise-6.3
1.In the given figure, sides QP and RQ of  PQR are produced to points S and
T respectively. If ∠SPR = 135o and ∠PQT = 110o, find ∠PRQ.

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 11


`

Ans: We are given that,


SPR=135 and PQT=110
Therefore we can write
SPR+QPR=180 (since Linear pair angles equals 180 )
 135 + QPR=180
 QPR=45
Similarly PQT+PQR=180 (Linear pair angles)
 110 + PQR = 180
From here we get
PQR=70
Considering  PQR,
QPR+PQR+PRQ = 180 (sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 )
 45 + 70 + PRQ = 180
Hence we found that
PRQ=65

2.In the given figure, X=62 , XYZ=54 . If YO and ZO are the bisectors of
XYZ and XZY respectively of  XYZ, find OZY and YOZ .

Ans: We know that the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 , therefore,
for  XYZ,
X+XYZ+XZY
 62 + 54 + XZY=180
Hence we get
XZY=64
54
Similarly OZY = 27 (since OZY = )
2
From OYZ we obtain
OZY + YOZ + OZY = 180 ?(using angle sum property of a triangle)
 27 + YOZ + 32 = 180
From here we get
YOZ = 121
Hence we found that, OZY = 27 and YOZ = 121

3.In the given figure, if AB DE, BAC=35 and CDE=53 , find DCE .

Ans: From the figure we can easily see AB DE and AE is a transversal.


BAC = CED (since alternate interior angles are equal)
CED=35
In  CDE,
CDE+CED+DCE=180 (from the angle sum property of a triangle)
53 + 35 + DCE = 180
From here we get
DCE = 92

4.In the given figure, if lines PQ and RS intersect at point T, such that
PRT=40 , RPT = 95 and TSQ=75 , find STQ

Ans: On applying angle sum property for  PRT, we find


PRT+RPT+PTR=180
 40 + 95 + PTR = 180
From here we get

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 14


`

PTR=45
Now in STQ
STQ = PTR (since they are vertically opposite angles)
STQ = 45
Similarly on applying angle sum property for  STQ, we find
STQ+SQT+QST=180
 45 + STQ + 75 = 180
Hence we found that
SQT=60

5.In the given figure, if PQ ⊥ PS, PQ SR, SQR=28 and QRT=65 then
find the values of x and y.

Ans: We are given that PQ SR and QR is a transversal line.


PQR=QRT (since alternate interior angles are equal)
 x + 28 = 65 (since PQR=PQS + SQR )
From here we get
x=37
By applying the angle sum property for  SPQ, we find
SPQ + x + y = 180
90 + 37 + y = 180
From here we get
y=53

Class IX Maths www.vedantu.com 15


`

Hence we found and x=37 and y=53

6.In the given figure, the side QR of  PQR is produced to a point S. If the
bisectors of PQR and PRS meet at point T, then prove that
1
QTR= QPR .
2

Ans: In QTR ,we can easily observe ∠TRS is an exterior angle.


QTR+TQR=TRS
 QTR=TRS-TQR ...... (1 )
In  PQR, we can easily observe PRS is an external angle.
QPR + PQR = PRS
 QPR + 2TQR = 2TRS (Given QT and RT are angle bisectors)
 QPR=2 ( TRS-TQR )
QPR = 2QTR (from equation 1 )
1
Hence QPR = QTR proved.
