    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 \[y=30{}^\circ \]
