Find the unknown angles in the given triangles
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
80 + a + b = 180
here two sides are equal so their opposite angles are also equal so, a=b
Now ,
80 + a + a = 180 ( a=b)
2a=180-80
2a = 100
a = 100/2
a= 50
b=a=50
Solution :-
In this given figure we can see that sides along the 80° angle are equal .
So , the two angles will be equal .
[ Angles opposite to equal sides are equal . ]
Let the measure of each angle be k .
We know in a ∆ the sum of all internal angles is 180° .
⇒ k + k + 80° = 180° .
⇒ 2k = 180⁰ - 80° .
⇒ 2k = 100⁰.
⇒ k = 100° / 2 .
⇒ k = 50° .
So , the values of a and b are equal and equal to 50° .
Now , we also , know that the measure of angle of a straight line is 180° .
So , here
⇒ 50° + x = 180°.
⇒ x = 180° - 50° .
⇒ x = 130⁰.
Here , similarly x = y = 130° .
Hence the values are ,
- a = 50°
- b = 50°
- x = 130°
- y = 130°
