    In figure AB||CD, if \[x=\frac{4}{3}y\]and \[y=\frac{3}{8}z,\] then the value of x

    A)  \[48{}^\circ \] 

    B)  \[96{}^\circ \]

    C)  \[36{}^\circ \] 

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    As, AB|| CD and BD cuts them \[\angle ABD=\angle BDC,\] so \[\angle BDC=x\] So,       \[x+y+z=180{}^\circ \] In \[\Delta BCD,\]\[\frac{4}{3}y+y+z=180{}^\circ \]\[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{7y}{3}+z=180{}^\circ \] \[\frac{7}{3}\left( \frac{3}{8}z \right)+z=180{}^\circ \]\[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{7}{8}z+z=180{}^\circ \] \[\frac{15z}{8}=180{}^\circ \]\[\Rightarrow \]\[z=96{}^\circ \] So,\[y=\frac{3}{8}\times 96{}^\circ =36{}^\circ \]and\[x=\frac{4}{3}\times 36{}^\circ =48{}^\circ \]
