In the figure below ab and and cd are parallell compute all the angles in the figure
Answers
Since AB//CD ,
∠ECD = ∠CAB = 70°
∠EDC = ∠DAB = 60°
∠ACD = 180° - ∠CAB = 180° - 70° = 110°
∠CDB = 180° - ∠ABD = 180° - 60° = 120°
In Δ CDE , ∠C + ∠D + ∠E =180°
∠E = 180° - (70 + 60)° = 180° - 130° = 50°
All the angles in the figure are,
∠ AEB = 50°, ∠ ECB = 70°, ∠ EDC = 60°, ∠ DCA = 110°, ∠ CDB = 120°.
Given: In the figure given, AB || CD.
To Find: Compute all the angles in the figure.
Solution:
We can solve the numerical by applying the formula of parallel lines and the concept of total angles in a triangle.
We are given that,
∠ EAB = 70° and ∠ EBA = 60°
So, we can say that,
∠ AEB + ∠ EAB + ∠ EBA = 180° [Total angles in a triangle]
⇒ ∠ AEB + 70° + 60° = 180°
⇒ ∠ AEB = 180° - 130°
= 50°
We know that AB || CD, so we can say that,
∠ EAB = ∠ ECB [ Corresponding angles ]
∴ ∠ ECB = 70°
Again, ∠ EBA = ∠ EDC [ Corresponding angles ]
∴ ∠ EDC = 60°
Now, ∠ DCA = 180° - 70° [ Angles on a straight line ]
= 110°
again, ∠ CDB = 180° - 60° [ Angles on a straight line ]
= 120°
Hence, compiling the answer we get;
All the angles in the figure are,
∠ AEB = 50°, ∠ ECB = 70°, ∠ EDC = 60°, ∠ DCA = 110°, ∠ CDB = 120°.
