find x,y,z in the following figure
Answers
Answer:
x= 80
y= 50
z= 50
correct h
To find :- Values of " x , y and z " respectively .
Used Concepts :- In any triangle if two sides are equal then the opposite angles to the equal sides are also equal .
:- Sum of all angles on a straight line is 180° . This property is also known as Linear pair.
:- Sum of all angles of a triangle is equal to 180° . This property is known as angle sum property of a Triangle .
Solution :- Here , 45° , 55° and x angles make a linear pair .
Therefore , 45° + 55° + x = 180° [ Linear Pair ]
x + 100° = 180°
x = 180° - 100°
x = 80°
Now , in the given triangle angle Y = angle Z [ Because angle opposite to equal sides are also equal ] .
Therefore , x + y + z = 180° [ Angle Sum property of Triangle ] .
But, y = z
So, x + y + y = 180°
80° + 2y = 180°
2y = 180° - 80°
2y = 100°
y = 100/ 2 = 50°
Therefore, x = 80°
y = 50°
z = 50°
