Q3 of 16 Page 88

If AB||CD then let’s write the measurement of the angles given below:




Given that AB||CD and EF is the transversal.


So, if two lines are parallel and cut by a transversal then the corresponding angles are equal,


Alternate interior angles are equal


Alternate exterior angles are equal,


Sum of co-interior angles is 180°.


6=68° , 1=x


5=1=x (corresponding angles)……………(1)


Now, as CD is a straight line,


5+6=180° (linear pair)


x+68° =180°


x=180°-68°


x=112°


Hence, x=112°
