(Sum of consecutive angles of a ||gm)
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q1.1

Question 2.
In a parallelogram ABCD, if ∠D = 115°, then write the measure of ∠A.
Solution:
In ||gm ABCD,
∠D = 115°
But ∠A + ∠D = 180°
(Sum of consecutive angles of a ||gm)
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q2.1
⇒ ∠A + 115°= 180° ∠A = 180°- 115°
∴ ∠A = 65°

Question 3.
PQRS is a square such that PR and SQ intersect at O. State the measure of ∠POQ.
Solution:
In a square PQRS,
Diagonals PR and QS intersects each other at O.
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q3.1
∵ The diagonals of a square bisect each other at right angles.
∴ ∠POQ = 90°

Question 4.
If PQRS is a square then write the measure of ∠SRP.
Solution:
In square PQRS,
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q4.1
Join PR,
∵Diagonals of a square bisect are opposite angles
∴∠SRP = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)x ∠SRQ
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) x 90° = 45°

Question 5.
If ABCD is a rhombus with ∠ABC = 56°, find the measure of ∠ACD.
Solution:
In rhombus ABCD,
Diagonals bisect each other at 0 at right angles.
∠ABC = 56°
But ∠ABC + ∠BCD = 180° (Sum of consecutive angles)
⇒ 56° + ∠BCD = 180°
⇒ ∠BCD = 180° – 56° = 124°
∵ Diagonals of a rhombus bisect the opposite angle
∴ ∠ACD = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠BCD = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) x 124°
= 62°

Question 6.
The perimeter of a parallelogram is 22 cm. If the longer side measures 6.5 cm, what is the measure of the shorter side.
Solution:
Perimeter of a ||gm ABCD = 22cm
∴ Sum of two consecutive sides = \(\frac { 22 }{ 2 }\)
= 11cm
i.e. AB + BC = 11 cm
AB = 6.5 cm and let BC = x cm
∴ 6.5 + x = 11 cm
x = 11 – 6.5 = 4.5
∴ Shorter side = 4.5 cm
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q6.1

Question 7.
If the angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio 3 : 5 : 9 : 13. Then find the measure of the smallest angle.
Solution:
Ratio in the angles of a quadrilateral = 3 : 5 : 9 : 13
Let first angle = 3x
Second angle = 5x
Third angle = 9x
and fourth angle = 13x
∵ The sum of angles of a quadrilateral = 360°
∴ 3x + 5x + 9x + 13x = 360°
⇒ 30x = 360° ⇒ x = \(\frac { { 360 }^{ \circ } }{ 30 }\)  = 12
∴ Smallest angle = 3x = 3 x 12° = 36°

Question 8.
In parallelogram ABCD if ∠A = (3x – 20°), ∠B = (y + 15)°, ∠C = (x + 40°), then find the value of x and y.
Solution:
In a ||gm ABCD,
∠A = (3x – 20°), ∠B = y + 15°,
∠C = x + 40°
Now, ∠A = ∠C (Opposite angles of a ||gm)
⇒ 3x – 20 = x + 40°
⇒ 3x – x = 40° + 20° ⇒ 2x = 60°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 60 }^{ \circ } }{ 2 }\)  = 30°
and ∠A + ∠B = 180° (Sum of the consecutive angles)
⇒ 3x-20° + y + 15° = 180°
⇒ 3x + y – 5° = 180°
⇒ 3 x 30° +y- 5° = 180°
⇒ 90° – 5° + y = 180
y = 180° – 90° + 5 = 95°
∴ x = 30°, y = 95°

Question 9.
If measures opposite angles of a parallelogram are (60 – x)° and (3x – 4)°, then find the measures of angles of the parallelogram.
Solution:
Opposite angles of a ||gm ABCD are (60 – x)° and (3x – 4°)
But opposite angles of a ||gm are equal, the
60° – x° = 3x – 4° ⇒ 60° + 4° = 3x + x
⇒ 4x = 64° ⇒ x = \(\frac { { 64 }^{ \circ } }{{ 4 }^{ \circ } }\)  = 16°
∴ ∠A = 60° – x = 60° – 16° = 44°
But ∠A + ∠B = 180° (sum of consecutive angle)
⇒ 44° + ∠B = 180°
⇒ ∠B = 180° – 44°
⇒ ∠B = 136°
But ∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D (Opposite angles)
∴ Angles are 44°, 136°, 44°, 136°

Question 10.

Solution:
In ||gm ABCD,
Bisectors of ∠A meets BC at X and BX = XC
Draw XY ||gm AB meeting AD at Y

Question 11.
In the figure, PQRS in an isosceles trapezium find x and y.
Solution:
∵ PQRS is an isosceles trapezium in which
SP = RQ and SR || PQ
∴ ∠P + ∠S = 180° (Sum of co-interior angles)
3x + 2x = 180° ⇒ 5x = 180°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 5 }\)  = 36°
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q11.1
But ∠P = ∠Qm (Base angles of isosceles trapezium)
y = 2x = 2 x 36° = 12°
∴ y = 12°
Hence x = 36°, y = 12°

Question 12.
In the figure ABCD is a trapezium. Find the values of x and y.
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q12.1
Solution:
In trapezium ABCD,
AB || CD
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q12.2
∴ ∠A + ∠D = 180° (Sum of cointerior angles)
x + 20° + 2x + 10° = 180°
3x + 30° = 180°
⇒ 3x= 180° – 30°
3x = 150°
x = \(\frac { { 150 }^{ \circ } }{ 3 }\)  = 50°
Similarly, ∠B + ∠C = 180°
⇒ y + 92° = 180°
⇒ y = 180° – 92° = 88°
∴ x = 50°, y = 88°

Question 13.
In the figure, ABCD and AEFG are two parallelograms. If ∠C = 58°, find ∠F.
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q13.1
Solution:
In the figure, ABCD and AEFG are two parallelograms ∠C = 58°
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q13.2
∵ DC || GF and CB || FE (Sides of ||gms)
∴ ∠C = ∠F
But ∠C = 58°
∴ ∠F = 58°

Solution:
(i) If one pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel, then the figure is parallelogram.
(ii) If in a quadrilateral only one pair of opposite sides are parallel, the quadrilateral is trapezium.
(iii) A line drawn from the mid-point of one side of a triangle parallel to another side intersects the third side at its mid-point,

Question 15.
In a quadrilateral ABCD, bisectors of A and B intersect at O such that ∠AOB = 75°, then write the value of ∠C + ∠D.
Solution:
In quadrilateral ABCD,
Bisectors of ∠A and ∠B meet at O and ∠AOB = 75°
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q15.1
In AOB, ∠AOB = 75°
∴ ∠OAB + ∠OBA = 180° – 75° = 105°
But OA and OB are the bisectors of ∠A and ∠B.
∴ ∠A + ∠B = 2 x 105° = 210°
But ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360° (Sum of angles of a quad.)
∴ 210° + ∠C + ∠D = 360°
⇒ ∠C + ∠D = 360° – 210° = 150°
Hence ∠C + ∠D = 150°

Question 16.
The diagonals of a rectangle ABCD meet at O. If ∠BOC = 44° find ∠OAD.
Solution:
In rectangle ABCD,
Diagonals AC and BD intersect each other at O and ∠BOC = 44°
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q16.1
But ∠AOD = ∠BOC (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠AOD = 44°
In ∆AOD,
∠AOD + ∠OAD + ∠ODA = 180° (Sum of angles of a triangle)
⇒ 44° + ∠OAD + ∠OAD = 180° [∵ OA = OD, ∠OAD = ∠ODA]
⇒ 2∠OAD = 180° – 44° = 136°
∴ ∠OAD = \(\frac { { 136 }^{ \circ } }{ 2 }\)  = 68°

Question 17.
If ABCD is a rectangle with ∠BAC = 32°, find the measure if ∠DBC.
Solution:
In rectangle ABCD,
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q17.1
Diagonals bisect each other at O
∠BAC = 32°
∵ OA = OB
∴ ∠OBA Or ∠DBA = ∠BAC = 32°
But ∠ABC = 90° (Angle of a rectangles)
∴ ∠DBC = ∠ABC – ∠DBA
= 90° – 32° = 58°

Question 18.
If the bisectors of two adjacent angles A and B of a quadrilateral ABCD intersect at a point O. Such that ∠C + ∠D = k(∠AOB), then find the value of k.
Solution:
In quadrilateral ABCD,
Bisectors of ∠A and ∠B meet at O
Such that ∠C + ∠D = k (∠AOB)

Question 19.
In the figure, PQRS is a rhombus in which the diagonal PR is produced to T. If ∠SRT = 152°, find x, y and z.
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q19.1
Solution:
In rhombus PQRS,
Diagonal PR and SQ bisect each other at right angles and PR is produced to T such that ∠SRT = 152°
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q19.2
But ∠SRT + ∠SRP = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 152° +∠SRP = 180°
⇒ ∠SRP =180°- 152° = 28°
But ∠SPR = ∠SRP (∵ PR bisects ∠P and ∠R)
⇒ z = 28°
y = 90° (∵ Diagonals bisect each other at right angles)
∠RPQ = z = 28°
∴ In ∆POQ,
z + x = 90° ⇒ 28° + x = 90°
⇒ x = 90° – 28° = 62°
∴ x = 62°, y = 90°, z = 28°

Question 20.
In the figure, ABCD is a rectangle in which diagonal AC is produced to E. If ∠ECD = 146°, find ∠AOB.
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q20.1
Solution:
In rectangle ABCD,
Diagonals AC and BD bisect each other at O
AC is produced to E and ∠DCE = 146°
RD Sharma Class 9 Solutions Chapter 13 Linear Equations in Two Variables VSAQS Q20.2
∠DCE + ∠DCA = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 146°+ ∠DCA= 180°
⇒ ∠DCA = 180°- 146°
⇒ ∠DCA = 34°
∴ ∠CAB = ∠DCA (Alternate angles)
= 34°
Now in ∆AOB,
∠AOB = 180° – (∠DAB + ∠OBA)
= 180° – (34° + 34°)
= 1803 – 68° = 112°
