If the construction of a triangle abc in which ab = 6 cm, ∠a = 70° and ∠b = 40° is possible then find the measure of ∠c. (i) 40°(ii) 70°(iii) 80°
Answers
Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
<a+<b+<c=180
70+40+<c=180
110+<c=180
<c= 70
Construction of ∆ABC in which AB = 6 cm, ∠A = 70° and ∠B = 40° has been done.
∠C= 70° , option (ii) is correct.
Given:
- AB = 6 cm, ∠A = 70° and ∠B = 40°
To find:
- Construction of ∆ABC,if possible
- find the measure of ∠c. (i) 40°(ii) 70°(iii) 80°
Solution:
Steps of construction to be followed:
- Draw base line AB= 6 cm, with the help of pencil and scale.
- With the help of protector make an angle if 70° at A.
- With the help of protector make an angle if 40° at B.
- Extend both lines of angles, they meet at a single point, mark that point C.
- Construction of ∆ABC has been done.
- To measure ∠C, put the protector on line AC or BC and measure it. Thus, ∠C= 70°.
Verification:
According to property of interior angles of triangles.
Sum of all interior angles are 180°.
Thus,
∠A+∠B +∠C= 180°
Put the values
70°+40°+∠C= 180°
or
∠C= 180°-110°
or
∠C= 70°
Thus,
Construction of ∆ABC in which AB = 6 cm, ∠A = 70° and ∠B = 40° has been done.
∠C= 70° , option (ii) is correct.
