In the given figure, 'l' is parallel to 'm' and 'a' is a transversal. If angle 3 = 65 degree, find the measure of angle 2, angles 4, angle 7 and angle 8.
Answers
Answer:
<2=115°, <4=115°, <7=65°, <8=115°
Step-by-step explanation:
<3=65°
<3 and <2 are corresponding angles.
<3+<2=180°
65°+<2=180°
<2=115°
and <2 and <4 are vertical opposite angles.
<2=<4=115°
<3 and <7 are alternate interior angles.
<3=<7=65°
<7 and <8 are corresponding angles.
<7+<8=180°
65°+<8=180°
<8=115°
Hence proved.
=> angle 3 is Congruent to angle 7
... (Corresponding angles)
angle 3 = 65°
... (Given)
Therefore angle 7 = 65°
=> angle 2 + angle 3 = 180°
... (angles in a linear pair)
angle 2 + 65° = 180°
angle 2 = 180°-65°
angle 2 = 115°
=> angle 2 is Congruent to angle 4
... (vertically opposite angles)
angle 2 = 115°
Therefore angle 4 = 115°
[ we can also find it by angles in a linear pair by taking angle 3]
=> angle 3 + angle 8 = 180°
... (interior angles)
angle 3 = 65°
65°+ angle 8 = 180°
angle 8 = 180° - 65°
angle 8 = 115°
[ we can also find it by angles in a linear pair by taking angle 7]
[ we can also find it by corresponding angles by taking angle 4]
[ we can also find it by alternate angles by taking 2]
