In Fig. 102, AB || CD || EF, ∠ABG = 110°, ∠GCO = 100° and ∠BGC = x°. The value of x is
(a) 35
(b) 50
(c) 30
(d) 40

Solution

Since, AB || EG
∴ ∠ABG + ∠EGB = 180 (Angles on the same side of a transversal line are supplementary)
⇒ 110 + ∠EGB = 180
⇒ ∠EGB = 70
Again, CD || GF
∴ ∠DCG + ∠FGC = 180 (Angles on the same side of a transversal line are supplementary)
⇒ 100 + ∠FGC = 180
⇒ ∠FGC = 80
Now, ∠EGB + ∠BGC +∠FGC = 180
⇒ 70 + x + 80= 180
⇒ 150+ x = 180
⇒ x = 30
⇒ x = 30
Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
