    In the figure (not drawn to scale), AJE, BJF, CJG and DJH are straight lines.           Find \[\angle x\] and \[\angle y\] respectively.

    A)  \[{{50}^{o}},{{49}^{o}}\]         

    B)  \[{{59}^{o}},{{40}^{o}}\]       

    C)                     \[{{59}^{o}},{{59}^{o}}\]      

    D)        \[{{49}^{o}},{{48}^{o}}\]     

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [a] As, \[\angle AJB+\angle BJC+\angle CJD+\angle DJE={{180}^{o}}\] (Angles on a straight line AE) \[\therefore \]  \[{{42}^{o}}+\angle x+{{40}^{o}}+{{39}^{o}}={{180}^{o}}\] \[\angle x={{180}^{o}}-({{42}^{o}}+{{40}^{o}}+{{39}^{o}})\] \[\angle x={{180}^{o}}-{{121}^{o}}={{59}^{o}}\] [b] \[\angle y=\angle x\]  (Vertically opposite angles) \[\therefore \] \[\angle y={{59}^{o}}\]
