All necessary formulas⤵️

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

$\purple{\boxed{\bf{Angle\:sum\: property}}}$

Angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°. Proof .Thus, the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

$\blue{\tt{Example:-}}$

$\red{\boxed{a+b+c=180°}}$

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

$\orange{\boxed{\bf{Alternate\: interior\:angle}}}$

Alternate interior angles are angles formed when two parallel or non-parallel lines are intersected by a transversal.Alternate interior angles are equal if the lines intersected by the transversal are parallel.

$\orange\star{\bf{\red{\underbrace{complementary \:angle}}}}\red\star$

The sum of 2 numbers$=90°$

example $a−b=90°$

how to find "a" if a is not mentioned

$\red{\underbrace{\bf{\orange{Given࿐}}}}$

$a= \: ?$

$b = 40$

$a+40=\:90°$

$a=90-40°$

$a=50°$

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

$\pink\star{\bf{\purple{\underbrace{supplementary\: angle}}}}\red\star$

The sum of two numbers$= \:180°$

example $a+b=180°$

how to find "a" if a is not mentioned

Given

$a= \:?$

$b =\: 40$

$a+40=180°$

$a=180-40°$

$a=140°$

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

$\orange\star{\bf{\green{\underbrace{Adjacent \:angle}}}}\red\star$

If there is a common ray between ${\bf&#x2220}a$ and ${\bf&#x2220}b$ so it is a adjacent angle.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

$\orange\star{\bf{\blue{\underbrace{Vertical\: opposite\: angle }}}}\red\star$

Vertical angles are pair angles formed when two lines intersect. Vertical angles are sometimes referred to as vertically opposite angles because the angles are opposite to each other.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

$\orange\star{\bf{\orange{\underbrace{lenear\: pair \:of\: angles}}}}\red\star$

Here ${\bf&#x2220}a$$+{\bf&#x2220}b$$=$180°.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ∠ a = 2x, & ∠b = 3x

We know that :- Sum of angle in linear pair always equal to 180°

• ∠XOM + ∠MOP + ∠POY = 180°
• ∠b + ∠a + ∠POY = 180° [∠POY = 90°]
• 3x + 2x + 90° = 180°
• 5x = 90°
• x = 18°

• a = 2x = 2 × 18 = 36°
• b = 3x = 3 × 18 = 54°

MN is a straight line, so again

• ∠b + ∠c = 180°
• 54° + ∠c = 180°
• ∠c = 180° − 54°
• ∠c = 126°
