If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, prove that the bisectors of the two
pairs of interior angles enclose a rectangle.
Answers
Answer:
Two parallel lines AB and CD are intersected by a transversal EF in points G and H respectively. The bisectors of two pairs of interior angles intersect in L and M. To Prove: GLHM is a rectangle.... | If the sum of two adjacent angles
is 180°, then the non-common arms of the angles form a line.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two parallel lines AB and CD are intersected by a transversal EF in points G and H respectively. The bisectors of two pairs of interior angles intersect in L and M. To Prove: GLHM is a rectangle.
Proof: AB || CD and a transversal EF intersects them
.: 1/2AGH = 1/2GHD
| Alternate interior angles
ZAGH =- LACH | Halves of equals are equal
21 = 2
But these form a pair of equal alternate interior
angles
.: GM || HL .(1) Similarly, we can show that
HM || GL .(2)
In view of (1) and (2), GLHM is a parallelogram
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its both the
pairs of opposite sides are parallel
Now, since the sum the consecutive interior angles on the same side of a transversal is 180°
.. ZBGH +ZGHD = 180°
ZGHD =.
BGH+ | Halves of equals are equal
23 + 22 = 90° ..(3) In AGHL,
23 + 2 + ZGLH = 180° | Angle sum property of a triangle
90° + ZGLH = 180°
From (3)
ZG = 90°
- GLHM is a rectangle
| A parallelogram with one of its angles of measure 90° is a rectangle.
