Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 8

Solution:

(i) Given PQR is a straight line

In the given figure,

∠PQS + ∠SQR = 1800 {linear pair of angles}

∠PQ S + 75 = 180

On further calculation, we get,

∠PQS = 180 – 75

∠PQS = 1050

(ii) Given PQR is a straight line

∠PQS + ∠RQS = 1800

1100 + ∠RQS = 1800

On further calculation, we get,

∠RQS = 1800 – 1100

∠RQS = 700

7. In the given figure; AOC is a straight line. If angle AOB = 500, angle AOE = 900 and angle COD = 250; find the measure of:

(ii) angle EOD

(iii) obtuse angle BOD

(iv) reflex angle BOD

(v) reflex angle COE

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 9

Solution:

(i) Given

AOC is a straight line

∠AOB = 500

∠AOE = 900

∠COD = 250

To find the measure of ∠BOC

∠AOB + ∠BOC = 1800 (Linear pairs of angle)

500 + ∠BOC = 1800

On further calculation, we get,

∠BOC = 1800 – 500

∠BOC = 1300

(ii) Given

AOC is a straight line

∠AOB = 500

∠AOE = 900

∠COD = 250

To find the measure ∠EOD

∠EOD + ∠COD = 900 (Since ∠AOE = 900)

∠EOD + 250 = 900

∠EOD = 900 – 250

We get,

∠EOD = 650

(iii) Given

AOC is a straight line

∠AOB = 500

∠AOE = 900

∠COD = 250

To find the measure of obtuse angle BOD,

∠BOD = ∠BOC + ∠COD

Substituting the value of ∠BOC and ∠COD, we get,

∠BOD = 1300 + 250

We get,

∠BOD = 1550

(iv) Given

AOC is a straight line

∠AOB = 500

∠AOE = 900

∠COD = 250

To find the measure of reflex angel BOD

∠BOD = 3600 – ∠BOD

= 3600 – 1550

We get,

∠BOD = 2050

(iv) Given

AOC is a straight line

∠AOB = 500

∠AOE = 900

∠COD = 250

To find the measure of reflex angle COE

∠COE = 3600 – ∠COE

= 3600 – (∠COD + ∠EOD)

= 3600 – (250 + 650)

We get,

= 3600 – 900

∠COE = 2700

8. In the given figure if:

(i) a = 1300; find b

(ii) b = 200; find a

(iii) a = 5 / 3 right angle, find b

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 10

Solution:

(i) From figure,

a + b = 3600

Substitute the value of a in above equation

1300 + b = 3600

b = 3600 – 1300

We get,

b = 2300

(ii) From figure,

a + b = 3600

a + 2000 = 3600

a = 3600 – 2000

We get,

a = 1600

(iii) From figure,

a = 5 / 3 right angle

= 5 / 3 × 900

We get,

a = 1500

Now,

a + b = 3600

Substitute the value of a in above equation

1500 + b = 3600

b = 3600 – 1500

b = 2100

9. In the given diagram, ABC is a straight line

(i) If x = 530, find y

(ii) If y =
Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 11 right angles; find x.

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 12

Solution:

(i) From the figure,

Given that ABC is a straight line

Hence,

∠ABD + ∠DBC = 1800 {Linear pair of angles}

x + y = 1800

530 + y = 1800

y = 1800 – 530

y = 1270

(ii) From given figure,

x + y = 1800

x +
Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 13right angles = 1800

x + 3 / 2 × 900 = 1800

On further calculation, we get

x + 1350 = 1800

x = 1800 – 1350

x = 450

10. In the given figure, AOB is a straight line. Find the value of x and also answer each of the following:

(i) ∠AOP = …….

(ii) ∠BOP = …….

(iii) which angle is obtuse?

(iv) which angle is acute?

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 14

Solution:

Given from figure,

∠AOP = x + 300

∠BOP = x – 300

Now,

∠AOP + ∠BOP = 1800 (Since ∠AOB is a straight line)

(x + 300)+ (x – 300) = 1800

2x = 1800

We get,

x = 900

(i) ∠AOP = x + 300

= 900 + 300

= 1200

(ii) ∠BOP = x – 300

= 900 – 300

We get,

= 600

(iii) The obtuse angle is ∠AOP

(iv) The acute angle is ∠BOP

11.In the given figure, PQR is a straight line. Find x. Then complete the following:

(i) ∠AQB = ……………

(ii) ∠BQP = ……………

(iii) ∠AQR = …………….

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 15

Solution:

Given

PQR is a straight line

∠AQP = x + 200

∠AQB = 2x + 100

∠BQR = x – 100

Since PQR is a straight line

∠AQP + ∠AQB + ∠BQR = 1800

(x + 200) + (2x + 100) + (x – 100) = 1800

We get,

4x + 200 = 1800

4x = 1800 – 200

4x = 1600

x = 1600 / 4

We get,

x = 400

(i) ∠AQB = 2x + 100

= 2 × 400 + 100

= 800 + 100

= 900

Similarly,

∠AQP = x + 200

∠AQP = 400 + 200

∠AQP = 600

∠BQR = x – 100

∠BQR = 400 – 100

∠BQR = 300

(ii) ∠BQP = ∠AQP + ∠AQB

= 600 + 900

= 1500

(iii) ∠AQR = ∠AQB + ∠BQR

= 900 + 300

= 1200

12. In the given figure, lines AB and CD intersect at point O.

(i) Find the value of ∠a.

(ii) Name all the pairs of vertically opposite angles.

(iii) Name all the pairs of adjacent angles

(iv) Name all the reflex angles formed and write the measure of each.

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 16

Solution:

Given

AB and CD intersect each other at point C

∠AOC = 680

(i) Here, AOB is a line

Hence,

∠AOC + ∠BOC = 1800 (Linear pairs of angles)

680 + a = 1800

a = 1800 – 680

a = 1120

(ii) The pairs of vertically opposite angles are,

∠AOC and ∠BOD and ∠BOC and ∠AOD

(iii) The pairs of adjacent angles are,

∠AOC and ∠BOC, ∠BOC and ∠BOD, ∠BOD and ∠DOA, ∠DOA and ∠AOC

(iv) The reflex angles in the given figure are,

∠BOC and ∠DOA,

Reflex angle BOC = 1800 + 680

= 2480

Reflex angle DOA = 1800 + 680

= 2480

13. In the given figure:

(i) If ∠AOB = 450, ∠BOC = 300 and ∠AOD = 1100;

Find: angles COD and BOD

(ii) If ∠BOC = ∠DOC = 340 and ∠AOD = 1200;

Find: angle AOB and angle AOC

(iii) If ∠AOB = ∠BOC = ∠COD = 380

Find: reflex angle AOC and reflex angle AOD

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 24 - 17

Solution:

(i) ∠COD = ∠AOD – ∠AOC

= ∠AOD – (∠AOB + ∠BOC)

= 1100 – (450 + 300)

We get,

= 1100 – 750

= 350

Hence,

∠COD = 350

∠BOD = ∠BOC + ∠COD

= 300 + 350

= 650

Hence,

∠BOD = 650

(ii) ∠AOB = ∠AOD – ∠BOD

= ∠AOD – (∠BOC + ∠COD)

= 1200 – (340 + 340)

We get,

= 1200 – 680

= 520

Hence,

∠AOB = 520

∠AOC = ∠AOB + ∠BOC

= 520 + 340

= 860

Hence,

∠AOC = 860

(iii) Reflex angel AOC = 3600 – ∠AOC

= 3600 – (∠AOB + ∠BOC)

= 3600 – (380 + 380)

= 3600 – 760

We get,

= 2840

Hence,

∠AOC = 2840

Reflex angle AOD = 3600 – ∠AOD

= 3600 – (∠AOB + ∠BOC + ∠COD)

= 3600 – (380 + 380 + 380)

= 3600 – 1140

We get,

= 2460

Hence,

∠AOC = 2460
