Solution

(a) Steps: 1 Mark
Proof: 1 Mark
(b) Solution: 1 Mark

(a) Given, lst=105 and nts=75

lst+nts=105+75=180

But these are co-interior angles

Since co-interior angles are supplementary, lines are parallel

Hence, the lines lm and qn are parallel.


(b) Since AB is parallel to CD, corresponding angles will be equal.

Therefore, x = 130°
