1.2.2 Angles and Lines II, PT3 Practice


Question 6:
In Diagram below, PQRST is a straight line. Find the value of x.

Solution:
Interior angle of  R = ( 180 o 76 o ) ÷ 2 = 52 o x = exterior angle of  R   ( corresponding angles ) Hence,  x = 76 o + 52 o = 128 o


Question 7:
In Diagram below, find the value of y.



Solution:


A B C = B C D    = 108 o  (alternate angle) y o + 130 o + 108 o = 360 o   y o = 360 o 238 o   y o = 122 o


Question 8:
In Diagram below, PSR and QST are straight lines.
Find the value of x.

Solution:
UST+STV= 180 o UST= 180 o 116 o = 64 o PST=QSR x o +UST= 135 o x o +UST= 135 o x o = 71 o x=71


Question 9:
In Diagram below, PWV is a straight line.

(a) Which line is perpendicular to line PWV?
(b) State the value of  ∠ RWU.

Solution:
(a) SW

(b) ∠ RWU = 13o + 29o + 20o = 62o

 


Question 10:
In Diagram below, UVW is a straight line.


(a) Which line is parallel to line TU?
(b) State the value of  ∠ QVS.

Solution:
(a) QV

(b) ∠ QVS = 8o + 18o = 26o
