(a) In the given figure, prove that lines lm & nq are parallel to each other. [3 MARKS]
(b) What is the value of "x” if AB is parallel to CD in the figure?
(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°
