Exercise 4.1

 

1. Can 30°, 60° and 90° be the angles of a triangle?

Solution: 

Given angles 30°, 60°, 90°

Sum of the angles = 30°+ 60°+ 90° = 180°

The given angles can form a triangle.

 

2. Can you draw a triangle with 25°, 65° and 80° as angles?

Solution: 

Given angles 25°, 65°, 80°

Sum of the angles = 25°+ 65°+ 80° = 170° ≠ 180°

The given angles can not form a triangle.

 

3. In each of the following triangles, find the value of x.


Solution: 

i) E + F + G = 180°


80° + 55° + x =180°

135° + x =180°

x = 180° – 135° = 45°

x = 45°

ii) M + N + O = 180°


x + 96° + 22° =180°

x + 118° =180°

x =180° – 118o = 62o

x = 62°

iii) X + Y + Z =180°


29° + 90° + 2x + l = 180°

 120° + 2x =180°

2x =180° – 120o = 60o

x = 30°

iv) L + J + K = 180°


3x + x +112° = 180°

4x + 112° = 180°

4x = 180° – 112° = 68°

x = 68 / 4 = 17o

x=17°

v) S + R + T = 180°


Side SR = Side RT

So, S = T

S = 3x T = 3x

 S + R + T = 3x + 3x + 72o = 180o

 = 6x + 72o = 180o

 = 6x = 180°–72° = 108°

 x = 180o /6 = 18°

x = 18°

vi) X + Y + Z = 180o


3x + 2x + 4x = 180o

9x = 180o

 X = 108 / 9 = 20o

x = 20°

vii) U + V + T = 180°


90° + 3x –2 + x –4 = 180°

84° + 4x = 180°

4x = 180° – 84o = 96o

 x = 96 / 4 = 24o

x = 24o

viii) N + O + P = 180°


x + 31+ 3x –10 + 2x –3 = 180°

6x + 18 = 180°

6x = 180° – 18° = 162°

 x = 162/6  = 27o

 x = 27o

 

4. Two line segments  and  intersect at O. Joining and   we get two triangles, ∆AOB and ∆DOC as shown in the figure. Find the A and B.


Solution: 

From the figure,

In ∆ OCD,

COD + OCD + ODC = 180o

COD + 30° + 70° = 180o

COD + 100o = 180o

COD = 180o – 100o = 80°

COD = 80°

COD = AOB = 80° (Vertically opposite angles)

 In ∆ AOB,

OAB + ABO + AOB = 180°

3x + 2x + 80° = 180°

5x = 180° – 80° = 100°

 x = 100 / 5 = 20°

x = 20° 

B = 2x = 2 x 20° = 40°

A = 3x = 3 x 20° = 60°

A = 60°, B = 40°

 

5. Observe the figure and find the value of

A+N+G+L+E+S.


Solution: 

From the figure, ∆AGE and ∆SNL are equilateral triangles. So each angle is 60°.

So, A + N + G + L + E + S = 60° + 60° + 60° + 60° + 60° + 60°

= 360°

 

6. If the three angles of a triangle are in the ratio 3 : 5 : 4 , then find them.

Solution: 

Sum of the three angles in a triangle = 180°

The ratio of the three angles = 3:5:4

Let the three angles be 3x, 5x, 4x.

Sum of the three angles = 3x,5x,4x =180°

 12x =180°

  x = 180 / 2 =15°

 x = 15°

 3x = 3 × 15° = 45°

 5x = 5 × l5° = 75°

 4x = 4 × 15° = 60°

The three angles are 45°, 75°, 60°

 

7. In ∆RST , S is 10° greater than R and T is 5° less than S , find the three angles of the triangle.

Solution: 

In ∆ RST

S = R + 10°

T = S – 5°

= R + 10° – 5°

T = R + 5°

Sum ofthe three angles of a triangle = 180°

R + S + T = 180°

R + R + 10° + R + 5° = 180°

3R + 15o = 180°

3R = 180° – 15o = 165°

 R = 165 / 3 = 55°

R = 55°

S = 55° + 10° = 65°

T= 55° + 5 = 60°

The three angles are 55°, 65°, 60°

 

8. In ∆ABC , if B is 3 times A and C is 2 times A , then find the angles.

Solution: 

In ∆ ABC

B = 3A

C = 2A

Sum of the three angles = 180°

A + B + C = 180°

A + 3A + 2A =180°

6A =180°

 A = 180 / 6 = 30o

A= 30°

B = 3A = 3 × 30° = 90°

C = 2A = 2 × 30° = 60°

The three angles are 30°, 60°, 90°

 

9. In ∆XYZ , if X : Z is 5 : 4 and Y = 72°. Find X and Z

Solution: 

In ∆ XYZ , Y = 72°

X : Z = 5:4

Let X = 5x, Z = 4x

Sum of the three angles = 180°

5x + 4x + 72° = 180°

9x + 72° = 180° 

9x = 180° – 72° = 108°

 x = 108o/9 = 12o

X = 5x = 5 × 12 = 60°

X = 60°

Z = 4x = 4 × 12 = 48°

Z = 48°

X = 60° ; Z = 48°

 

10. In a right angled triangle ABC, B is right angle, A is x + 1 and C is 2x + 5 . Find A and C .

Solution: 

In right ∆ ABC,

B = 90°             A = x + 1

A + C = 90°   C = 2x + 5

x + l + 2x + 5 = 90°

3x + 6 = 90°

3x = 90 – 6 = 84°

 x = 84 / 3 = 28o

x = 28°

A = x + 1 = 28° + 1 = 29°

C = 2x + 5 = 2 × 28 + 5 = 56 + 5 = 61°

A = 29°

C = 61°

 

11. In a right angled triangle MNO, N = 90°, MO is extended to P. If NOP = 128°, find the other two angles of ∆MNO .

Solution: 

In right ∆ MNO,

N =90°

NOP =128°

MON + NOP = 180° (linear angles)

MON + 128° =180°

MON = 180°– 128° = 52°

MON = 52°

MON + NMO = 90°

52° + NMO = 90°

NMO = 90° – 52° = 38°

The other two angles,

M = 38°

O = 52°

 

12. Find the value of x in each of the given triangles.


Solution: 

i) Exterior angle BCL = Sum of two interior opposite angles


135° = 65° + BAC

BAC = 135° – 65° = 70°

x + BAC = 180° (Linear angles)

x + 70o = 180°

x = 180° – 70° = 110°

x = 110°

ii) From the figure, BAC = XAZ = 8x + 7 (Vertically opposite angle)


BAC = 8x + 7

Exterior angle ACY = Sum of two interior opposite angles. 

120° = BAC + ABC

120° = 8x + 7 + 3x – 8

11x – 1 = 120

11 x = 120 + 1 = 121

 x = 121/ 11=11

x = 11°

 

13. In ∆LMN, MN is extended to O. If MLN = 100 – x, LMN = 2x and LNO = 6x – 5, find the value of x.

Solution: 

Exterior angle LNO = Sum of two interior opposite angles.

6x – 5 = 100 – x + 2x

6x – 5 = 100 + x

6x – x = 100 + 5

5x = 105

 x = 105 / 5 = 21°

x = 21°

 

14. Using the given figure find the value of x.


Solution: 

Exterior angle BEC = Sum of two interior opposite angles.

x = EDC + ECD

x = 50° + 60° = 110°

x = 110°

x = 110°

 

15. Using the diagram find the value of x.


Solution: 

Angles of the equilateral triangle.

So, A = B = C = 60°

Exterior angle x = Sum of two interior opposite angles 

x = B + C

x = 60° + 60° = 120°

x = 120°

x = 120°
