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°.


4=100° , 7=x


6=7=x (vertically opposite angles)……………(1)


Now, as AB||CD,


6+4 =180°


x+100° =180° (co-interior angles)


x=180°-100°


x=80° (from (1))


Hence, x=80°
