Question

In ΔABC, ∠A = 30°, ∠B = 40° and ∠C = 110°. The angles of the triangle formed by joining the mid-points of the sides of this triangle are

(a) 70°, 70°, 40°

(b) 60°, 40°, 80°

(c) 30°, 40°, 110°

(d) 60°, 70°, 50°

Answer 1

It is given that D, E and F be the mid-points of BC , CA and AB respectively.

Then,

, and .

Now, and transversal CB and CA intersect them at D and E respectively.

Therefore,

[(Given)]

and

[(Given)]

Similarly,

Therefore,

[(Given)]

and

[(Given)]

Similarly,

Therefore,

[ (Given)]

and

[ (Given)]

Now BC is a straight line.

Similarly,

and

Hence the correct choice is (c).
