Question

in the given figure find a,b,c and d if PQ || RS and m||n if one side is 80°​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that AB || CD and CD || EF

∴ AB || CD || EF (Lines parallel to the same line are parallel to each other)

It can be observed that

x = z (Alternate interior angles) … (1)

It is given that y: z = 3: 7

Let the common ratio between y and z be a.

∴ y = 3a and z = 7a

Also, x + y = 180º (Co-interior angles on the same side of the transversal)

z + y = 180º [Using equation (1)]

7a + 3a = 180º

10a = 180º

a = 18º
