Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
PQ||RS,∠PAC = 70°,∠ACS = 100°
To find :-
Determine ∠ABC , ∠ BAC and ∠ CAQ
Solution :-
Given that
PQ || RS
∠ PAC = 70°
∠ACS = 100°
Let ∠ABC = x°
Let ∠BAC = y°
In ∆ ABC , BC is extended to CS
=>∠ACS is the exterior angle
We know that
An exterior angle formed by extending any side of a triangle is equal to the sum of opposite interior angles.
The opposite interior angles of ∠ACS are ∠ABC and ∠BAC
=>∠ACS =∠ABC +∠BAC
=> 100° = x°+y°
x° + y° = 100° ------------(1)
and
PQ || RS and AB is the transversal then
Alternative interior angles are equal.
=>∠ABC =∠PAB
=> x° = 70°
x° = 70° --------(2)
On Substituting the value of x in (1) then
=> 70°+y° = 100°
=> y° = 100°-70°
=> y°=30°
So, We have
x° = 70°
=>∠ABC = 70°
and
y° = 30°
=>∠BAC = 30°
and
∠ACS+ ∠ACB = 180°
since they are linear pair
=> 100° +∠ACB = 180°
=>∠ACB = 180°-100°
=>∠ACB = 80°
PQ || RS and AC is the transversal then
Alternative interior angles are equal.
=>∠ACB =∠CAQ
=> 80° = ∠CAQ
=> ∠CAQ = 80°
Answer :-
∠ABC = 70°
∠ACB = 80°
∠BAC = 30°
∠CAQ = 80°
Used formulae:-
- An exterior angle formed by extending any side of a triangle is equal to the sum of opposite interior angles.
- If two parallel lines intersecting by a transversal then the alternative interior angles are equal.
