In the given figure, XV is parallel to PQ. Find the value of the angles marked x and y. |
A) \[27{}^\circ ,\]\[17{}^\circ \]
B) \[45{}^\circ ,\]\[25{}^\circ \]
C) \[70{}^\circ ,\]\[30{}^\circ \]
D) \[36{}^\circ ,\]\[16{}^\circ \]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
\[\angle EAY+\angle YAO+\angle OAB=180{}^\circ \][linear pair] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[60{}^\circ +40{}^\circ +\angle OAB=180{}^\circ \] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[\angle OAB=80{}^\circ \] |
\[XY||PQ\]and AB is the transversal. |
\[\angle EAY=\angle ABQ\][corresponding angles] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[\angle EAY=\angle ABO+\angle OBQ\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[60{}^\circ =30{}^\circ +y\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[y=30{}^\circ \] |
In \[\Delta AOB,\]\[\angle AOB+\angle OBA+\angle BAO=180{}^\circ \] |
\[x+30{}^\circ +80{}^\circ =180{}^\circ \] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[x=70{}^\circ \] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[x=70{}^\circ \] and \[y=30{}^\circ \] |
