Q41 of 93 Page 6

Which of the following statements are true (T) and which are false (F)? Give reasons.
        (i) Angles forming linear pair are supplementary.
        (ii) If two adjacent angles are equal, then each angle measures 90°.
        (iii) Angles forming a linear pair can both be acute angles.
        (iv) Two distinct lines in a plane can have two points in common.
        (v) If angles forming a linear pair are equal, then each of these angles is of measure 90°.
       (vi) If two lines intersect and if one pair of vertically opposite angles is formed by acute angles, then the other pair of vertically opposite angles will be formed by obtuse angles.
       (vii) If two lines intersect and one of the angles so formed is a right angle, then the other three angles will not be right angles.

(i) T. All angles forming linear pair must be supplementary. 
(ii) F. Two adjacent angles will be equal as 90° only, when the lines are perpendicular to each other. 
(iii) F. Both angles forming linear pair need not be acute angles, can be one obtuse and one acute angle or both equal to 90°. 
(iv) F. Two distinct lines cannot have two points in common.
(v) T. If angles forming a linear pair are equal, the measure of each angle formed will be equal to 90° since the lines will be perpendicular to each other.
(vi) T. If two lines intersect, and if one pair of vertically opposite angles formed are acute, then the other pair will be obtuse since the sum of the four angles will be 360°.
(vii) F. If two lines intersect and one of the angles so formed is a right angle, then the two lines will be perpendicular to each other. So all the angles formed will right angles.
