In the figure find the value of x and y
Answers
★ Understanding the question :
» Here we are given a figure in which two triangles (∆ABC , ∆DBE) are joined together.
» In ∆ABC ∠A = 50° , ∠C = 30° , ∠B(3) in not given and in ∆DBE ∠D = 55° , measure of ∠B(1) and ∠E(4),(2) is not given.
» We had to find out the values of x° and y°.
Let's do it !!
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ━━━━━━━━━
★ Using angle sum property on ∆ABC :
★ Putting value of ∠A and ∠C :
Now,
★ Putting value of ∠3 :
★ Using angle sum property on ∆DBE :
★ Putting value of ∠D and ∠1 :
Now,
★ Putting value of ∠4 :
Given:
- There is two triangle first one is ∆ABC and second one is ∆BDE.
- ∠CAB = 50°
- ∠ACB is 30°
- ∠CED = x°
- ∠EBD = y°
- ∠BDE = 55°
To Find:
- Value of x and y.
Solution:
In triangle 1st :
- ∠CAB = 50°
- ∠ACB = 30°
Therefore,
∠CAB + ∠ACB + ∠ABC = 180° •••••(Angle sum property)
→ 50° + 30° + ∠ABC = 180°
→ 80° + ∠ABC = 180°
→ ∠ABC = 180° - 80°
→ ∠ABC = 100°
Now, in ∆ABC :
- ∠CAB = 50°
- ∠ACB = 30°
- ∠ABC = 100°
Now,
∠ABC + ∠EBD = 180° ••••••(linear pair)
→ 100° + ∠EBD = 180°
→ ∠EBD = 180° - 100°
→ ∠EBD = 80°
Therefore,
_______________
In triangle 2nd :
- ∠EBD = 80°
- ∠BDE = 55°
Therefore,
∠BED +∠EBD +∠BDE = 180° •••••(Angle sum property)
→ ∠BED+ 80° + 55° = 180°
→ ∠BED + 135° = 180°
→ ∠BED= 180° - 135°
→ ∠BED = 45°
Therefore,
∠EBD + ∠BDE = ∠CED •••••(Exterior angle property)
→ 80° + 55° = x
→ 135° = x
Therefore,
