2. In which of the following figures, are ∠AOB and ∠AOC adjacent angles? Give, in each case, reason for your answer.

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 2

Solution:

If ∠AOB and ∠AOC are adjacent angle, they have OA as their common arm.

(i) From the figure

OB is the common arm

∠AOB and ∠AOC are not adjacent angles.

(ii) From the figure

OC is the common arm

∠AOB and ∠AOC are not adjacent angles.

(iii) From the figure

OA is the common arm

∠AOB and ∠AOC are adjacent angles.

(iv) From the figure

OB is the common arm

∠AOB and ∠AOC are not adjacent angles.

3. In the given figure, AOC is a straight line.
Find: (i) x (ii) ∠AOB (iii) ∠BOC

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 3

Solution:

We know that

∠AOB and ∠COB are linear pairs

It can be written as

∠AOB + ∠COB = 180o

Substituting the values

x + 25o + 3x + 15o = 180o

By further calculation

4x + 40o = 180o

So we get

4x = 180 – 40 = 140o

(i) x = 140/4 = 35o

(ii) ∠AOB = x + 25

Substituting the value of x

∠AOB = 25 + 35 = 60o

(iii) ∠BOC = 3x + 15o

Substituting the value of x

∠BOC = (3 × 35) + 15

∠BOC = 120o

4. Find y in the given figure.

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 4

Solution:

Here AOC is a straight line

We can write it as

∠AOB + ∠BOD + ∠DOC = 180o

Substituting the values

y + 150 – x + x = 180

By further calculation

y + 150 = 180

So we get

y = 180 – 150 = 30o

5. In the given figure, find ∠PQR.

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 5

Solution:

Here SQR is a straight line

We can write it as

∠SQT + ∠TQP + ∠PQR = 180o

Substituting the values

x + 70 + 20 – x + ∠PQR = 180o

By further calculation

90o + ∠PQR = 180o

So we get

∠PQR = 180o – 90o = 90o

6. In the given figure, po = qo = ro, find each.

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 6

Solution:

We know that

po + qo + ro = 180o is a straight angle

It is given that

po = qo = ro

We can write it as

po + po + po = 180o

3p = 180

p = 180/3 = 60o

Therefore, po = qo = ro = 60o

7. In the given figure, if x = 2y, find x and y.

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 7

Solution:

It is given that

x = 2y

For a straight angle

xo + yo = 180o

Substituting the values

2y + y = 180

By further calculation

3y = 180

y = 180/3 = 60o

x = 2y = 2 × 60o = 120o

8. In the adjoining figure, if bo = ao + co, find b.

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 8

Solution:

It is given that

bo = ao + co

For a straight angle

ao + bo + co = 180o

Substituting the values

bo + bo = 180o

2bo = 180o

bo = 180/2 = 90o

9. In the given figure, AB is perpendicular to BC at B.
Find : (i) the value of x.
(ii) the complement of angle x.

Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 7 Chapter 14 Image 9

Solution:

(i) From the figure

AB || BC at B

Here ∠ABC = 90o

Substituting the values

x + 20 + 2x + 1 + 7x – 11 = 90

By further calculation

10x + 10 = 90

10x = 90 – 10 = 80

x = 80/10 = 8o

(ii) The complement of angle x = 90 – x

So we get

= 90 – 8 = 82o

10. Write the complement of:

(i) 25o

(ii) 90o

(iii) ao

(iv) (x + 5)o

(v) (30 – a)o

(vi) ½ of a right angle

(vii) 1/3 of 180o

(viii) 21o 17’

Solution:

(i) The complement of 25o = 90o – 25o = 65o

(ii) The complement of 90o = 90o – 90o = 0

(iii) The complement of ao = 90o – ao

(iv) The complement of (x + 5)o = 90o – (x + 5)o

By further calculation

= 90o – x – 5o

= 85o – x

(v) The complement of (30 – a)o = 90o – (30 – a)o

By further calculation

= 90o – 30o + ao

= 60o + ao

(vi) The complement of ½ of a right angle = 90o – ½ of a right angle

So we get

= 90o – ½ × 90o

= 90o – 45o

= 45o

(vii) The complement of 1/3 of 180o = 90o – 1/3 of 180o

By further calculation

= 90o – 60o

= 30o

(viii) The complement of 21o 17’ = 90o – 21o 17’

So we get

= 68o 43’

11. Write the supplement of:

(i) 100°
(ii) 0°
(iii) x°
(iv) (x + 35)°
(v) (90 +a + b)°
(vi) (110 – x – 2y)°
(vii) 1/5 of a right angle
(viii) 80° 49′ 25″

Solution:

(i) The supplement of 100° = 180 – 100 = 800

(ii) The supplement of 0° = 180 – 0 = 180o

(iii) The supplement of x° = 1800 – x0

(iv) The supplement of (x + 35)° = 1800 – (x + 35)0

We can write it as

= 180 – x – 35

= 1450 – x0

(v) The supplement of (90 + a + b)° = 1800 – (90 + a + b)0

We can write it as

= 180 – 90 – a – b

So we get

= 900 – a0 – b0

= (90 – a – b)0

(vi) The supplement of (110 – x – 2y)° = 1800 – (110 – x – 2y)°

We can write it as

= 180 – 110 + x + 2y

= 700 + x0 + 2y0

(vii) The supplement of 1/5 of a right angle = 1800 – 1/5 of a right angle

We can write it as

= 1800 – 1/5 × 900

So we get

= 1800 – 180

= 1620

(viii) The supplement of 80° 49′ 25″ = 1800 – 80° 49′ 25″

We know that 10 = 60’ and 1’ = 60”

So we get

= 990 10’ 35”

12. Are the following pairs of angles complementary?

(i) 10° and 80°
(ii) 37° 28′ and 52° 33′
(iii) (x+ 16)°and (74 – x)°
(iv) 54° and 2/5 of a right angle.

Solution:

(i) 10° and 80°

Yes, they are complementary angles as their sum = 100 + 800 = 900

(ii) 37° 28′ and 52° 33′

No, they are not complementary angles as their sum is not equal to 900

37° 28′ + 52° 33′ = 9001’

(iii) (x+ 16)° and (74 – x)°

Yes, they are complementary angles as their sum = x + 16 + 74 – x = 900

(iv) 54° and 2/5 of a right angle

We can write it as

= 540 and 2/5 × 900

= 540 and 360

Yes, they are complementary angles as their sum = 54 + 36 = 900

13. Are the following pairs of angles supplementary?

(i) 139o and 39o

(ii) 26o59’ and 153o1’

(iii) 3/10 of a right angle and 4/15 of two right angles

(iv) 2xo + 65o and 115o – 2xo

Solution:

(i) 139o and 39o

No, they are not supplementary angles as their sum is not equal to 1800

1390 + 390 = 1780

(ii) 26o59’ and 153o1’

Yes, they are supplementary angles as their sum = 26o59’ + 153o1’ = 1800

(iii) 3/10 of a right angle and 4/15 of two right angles

We can write it as

= 3/10 of 900 and 4/15 of 1800

= 270 and 480

No, they are not supplementary angles as their sum is not equal to 1800

270 + 480 = 750

(iv) 2xo + 65o and 115o – 2xo

Yes they are supplementary angles as their sum = 2x + 65 + 115 – 2x = 1800

14. If 3x + 18° and 2x + 25° are supplementary, find the value of x.

Solution:

It is given that 3x + 18° and 2x + 25° are supplementary

We can write it as

3x + 18° + 2x + 25° = 1800

By further calculation

5x + 430 = 1800

So we get

5x = 180 – 43 = 1370

x = 137/5 = 27.40 or 270 24’

15. If two complementary angles are in the ratio 1:5, find them.

Solution:

It is given that two complementary angles are in the ratio 1:5

Consider x and 5x as the angles

We can write it as

x + 5x = 900

6x = 900

So we get

x = 90/6 = 150

Here the angles will be 150 and 15 × 5 = 750
