Exercise – 25 A Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines) for ICSE Class-6th Concise Selina Mathematics Solutions 

Question -1-.

Two straight lines AB and CD intersect each other at a point O and angle AOC = 50° ; find :
(i) angle BOD
(ii) ∠AOD
(iii) ∠BOC
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-a1
Answer-1

(i)∠BOD = ∠AOC
(Vertically opposite angles are equal)
∴ ∠BOD =50°
(ii) ∠AOD
∠AOD + ∠BOD = 180°
∠AOD + 50° = 180° [From (i)]
∠AOD = 180°-50°
∠AOD = 130°
(iii) ∠BOC = ∠AOD
(Vertically opposite angles are equal)
∴ ∠BOC =130°

Question- 2.

The adjoining figure, shows two straight lines AB and CD intersecting at point P. If ∠BPC = 4x – 5° and ∠APD = 3x + 15° ; find :
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-a2
(i) the value of x.
(ii) ∠APD
(iii) ∠BPD
(iv) ∠BPC
Answer-2

(i) 4x – 5 = 3x + 15 (∵ ∠CPB = ∠APD; opposite angles)

⇒ 4x – 3x = 15 + 5

⇒ x = 20

(ii) ∠APD = 3x + 15

= (3 × 20) + 15

= 60 + 15 = 75°

(iii) ∠BPD = 180 – ∠BPC

= 180 – (4x – 5)

= 180 – 4x + 5

= 185 – (4 × 20)

= 185 – 80 = 105°

(iv) ∠BPC = 4x – 5

= (4 × 20) – 5

= 80 – 5

= 75°

Question- 3.

 The given diagram, shows two adjacent angles AOB and AOC, whose exterior sides are along the same straight line. Find the value of x.

Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-a3
Answer-3

Since, the exterior arms of the adjacent angles are in a straight line ; the adjacent angles are supplementary
∴ ∠AOB + ∠AOC = 180°
⇒ 68° + 3x – 20° = 180°
⇒ 3x = 180° + 20° – 68°
⇒ 3x = 200° – 68° ⇒ 3x =132°
x = 1323 = 44°

Question -4.

Each figure given below shows a pair of adjacent angles AOB and BOC. Find whether or not the exterior arms OA and OC are in the same straight line.
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-a4
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-a4a
Answer-4

(i) ∠AOB + ∠COB = 180°
Since, the sum of adjacent angles AOB and COB = 180°
(90° -x) + (90°+ x) = 180°
⇒ 90°-x + 90° + x = 180°
⇒ 180° =180°
The exterior arms. OA and OC are in the same straight line.
(ii) ∠AOB + ∠BOC = 97° + 83° = 180°
⇒ The sum of adjacent angles AOB and BOC is 180°.
∴ The exterior arms OA and OC are in the same straight line.
(iii)∠COB + ∠AOB = 88° + 112° = 200° ; which is not 180°.
⇒ The exterior amis OA and OC are not in the same straight line.

Question -5.

A line segment AP stands at point P of a straight line BC such that ∠APB = 5x – 40° and ∠APC = .x+ 10°; find the value of x and angle APB.
Answer-5

AP stands on BC at P and
∠APB = 5x – 40°, ∠APC = x + 10°
Properties of Angles and Lines ICSE Class-6th Concise Selina maths Exercise-25 A Ans-5
(i) ∵APE is a straight line
∠APB + ∠APC = 180°
⇒ 5x – 40° + x + 10° = 180°
⇒ 6x-30°= 180°
⇒6x= 180° + 30° = 210°
x = 2106° = 35°
(ii) and ∠APB = 5x – 40° = 5 x 35° – 40°
= 175 ° – 140° = 135°

Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-b2a..
Answer-2

(i) a + 140° = 180° (Linear pair)

∴ a = 180° – 140° = 40°

But b = a  (alternate angles)

= 40°

∴ a = 40°, b = 40°

(ii) ∵  l || m and p intersects them

b + 60° = 180°     (Linear pair)

∴ b = 180° – 60° = 120°

and a = 60°    (corresponding angle)

∴ a = 60°, b = 120°

(iii) a = 110°     (Vertically opposite angles)

b = 180° – a     (Co-interior angles)

= 180° – 110° = 70°

(iv) a = 60°     (Alternate interior angles)

b = 180° – a     (Co-interior angles)

= 180° – 60° = 120°

(v) a = 72°     (Alternate interior angles)

b = a     (Vertically opposite angles)

i.e. b = 72°

(vi) b = 100°     (Corresponding angles)

a = 180° – b     (Linear pair of angles)

a = 180° – 100° = 80°

(vii) a = 180° – 130° = 50°    (Co-interior angles)

b = 130°      (Vertically opposite angles)

(viii) b = 62°     (Corresponding angles)

a = 180° – b     (Linear pairs of angles)

a = 180° – 62°  = 118°

(viii) a = 180° – 90°     (Linear pairs of angles)

= 90°

b = 90°     (Corresponding angles)

Question -3.

 If ∠1 = 120°, find the measures of : ∠2, ∠3, ∠4, ∠5, ∠6, ∠7 and ∠8. Give reasons.

Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-b3
Answer-3

l || m and p is their transversal and ∠1 = 120°

∠1 + ∠2 = 180°    (Straight line angle)

∴ 120° + ∠2 = 180°

⇒ ∠2 = 180° – 120° = 60°

∴ ∠2 = 60°

But ∠1 = ∠3   (Vertically opposite angles)

∴ ∠3 = ∠1 = 120°

Similarly ∠4 = ∠2   (Vertically opposite angles)

∴ ∠4 = 60°

∠5 = ∠1     (Corresponding angles)

∴ ∠5 = 120°

Similarly ∠6 = ∠2   (Corresponding angles)

∴ ∠6 = 60°

∠7 = ∠5   (Vertically opposite angles)

∴  ∠7 = 120°

and ∠8 = ∠6 (Vertically opposite angles)

∴  ∠8 = 60°

Hence ∠2 = 60°, ∠3 = 120°, ∠4 = 60°,∠5 = 120°, ∠6 = 60°, ∠7 = 120° and ∠8 = 60°.

Question- 4.

In the figure given below, find the measure of the angles denoted by x,y, z,p,q and r.

60°

q = 180 – P   [Linear Pair of angles]

= 180 – 60 = 120°

r = 180 – x    [Linear Pair of angles]

= 180 – 60 = 120°

Revision Exercise Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines) for ICSE Class-6th Concise Selina Mathematics Solutions 

Question -1.

In the following figures, AB is parallel to CD; find the values of angles x, y and z :
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-r1
Answer-1

(i) In the given figure,

AB || CD

and LM is its transversal

∴ ∠ALM = ∠LMN  (Alternate angles)

⇒ ∠x = 105°

∴ x = 105°

Similarly AB || CD and LN is its transversal

∴ ∠BLN = ∠LNM  (Alternate angles)

∴ ∠z = 60°

∴ z = 60°

But x + y + z = 180°  (Straight line angles)

⇒ 105° + y + 60° = 180°

⇒ y + 165° = 180°

⇒ y = 180° – 165° = 15°

Hence x = 105°, y = 15° and z = 60°

(ii) In the given figure,

AB || CD

and MN is its transversal

∴ ∠LMN = ∠NMD  (Alternate angles)

⇒ y = 45°

and AB || CD and LM is its transversal

∴ ∠ALM = ∠CMP  (Corresponding angles)

⇒ 75° = x

∴ x = 75°

and ∠ALM = ∠LMD     (Alternate angles)

⇒ 75° = z + 45°

⇒ z =75° – 45° = 30°

Hence x = 75°, y = 45° and z = 30°

Question -2.

In each of the following figures, BA is parallel to CD. Find the angles a, b and c:
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-r2
Answer-2

(i)

In the given figure,

ABC is a triangle and CD || BA, BC is produced to E.

∠A = 60°, ∠B = 70°

∵ AB || DC and BE is its transversal

∴ ∠DCE = ∠ABC  (Corresponding angles)

⇒ a = 70°

∴ a = 70°

Similarly, AB || DC and AC is its transversal

∴ ∠ACD = ∠BAC  (Alternate angles)

⇒ b = 60°

∴ b = 60°

But a + b + c = 180°     (Straight line angle)

⇒ 70° + 60° + c = 180°

⇒ 130° + c = 180°

⇒ c = 180° – 130° = 50°

Hence a = 70°, b = 60° and c = 50°

(ii) In the given figure,

ABC is a triangle and AB || DC and AC is its transversal.

∠BAC = ∠ACD     (Alternate angles)

⇒ b = 65°

Again AB || DC and BCE is its transversal

∴ ∠ABC = ∠DCE

⇒ C = 70°

But ∠ACB + ∠ACD + ∠DCE = 180    (Straight line angle)

∴ a + 65° + 70° = 180°

⇒ a + 135° = 180°

⇒ a = 180° – 135° = 45°

Hence a = 45°, b = 65° and c = 70°

Question -3.

In each of the following figures, PQ is parallel to RS. Find the angles a, b and c:
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions - Properties of Angles and Lines (Including Parallel Lines)-r3
Answer-3

(i) In the given figure,

PQ || RS, ∠B = 75°, ∠ACS = 140°

AB is its transversal

∴ ∠PAB = ∠ABC

⇒ a = 75°

Again PQ || RS and AC is its transversal

∴ ∠QAC + ∠ACS = 180°   (Co-interior angles)

⇒ c + 140° = 180°

⇒ c = 180° – 140° = 40°

But a + b + c = 180°   (Straight line angles)

∴ 75° + b + 40° = 180°

⇒ b + 115° = 180°

⇒ b = 180° – 115° = 65°

Hence a = 75°, b = 65°, c = 40°

(ii) In the given figure,

PQ || RS, ∠BAR = 63°, ∠CAS = 57°

AB is its transversal.

∴ ∠CBA = ∠BAR     (Alternate angles)

⇒ a = 63°

∵ PQ || RS and CA is its transversal

∴ ∠QCA + ∠CAS = 180°   (Co-interior angles)

⇒ b + 57° = 180°

⇒ b = 180° – 57° = 123°

But ∠CAS + ∠CAB + ∠BAR = 180°   (Straight line angles)

∴ 57° + c + 63° = 180°

⇒ c + 120° = 180°

⇒ c = 180° – 120° = 60°

Hence a = 63°, b = 123°, c = 60°

Question- 4.

Answer-5

A transversal intersects two straight lines and co-interior angles are supplementary

∴ By deflations, the lines will be parallel.

Question -6.

Two straight lines are cut by a transversal so that the co-interior angles are equal. What must be the measure of each interior angle to make the straight lines parallel to each other ?
Answer-6

A transversal intersects two straight lines and co-interior angles are equal to each other,

∵ The two straight lines are parallel Their sum of co-interior angles = 180°

But both angles are equal

∴ Each angle will be ..1802…= 90…

Answer-7

(i) POQ is a straight line.

In the given figure,

∵ POQ is a straight line

∴ ∠POL + ∠LOM + ∠MOQ = 180°  (Straight line angles)

⇒ x + 20° + 2x – 30° + 3x – 50°= 180°

⇒ 6x + 20° – 80° = 180°

⇒ 6x – 60° = 180°

⇒ 6x = 180° + 60° = 240°

⇒ x = 240∘6

⇒ x = 40°

∴ x = 40°

(ii) ∵ POQ is a straight line

∴ ∠POL + ∠LOQ = 180°

⇒  7x11 +x=180∘

⇒ 7x+11x11  =180°

⇒  18x11 =180°

⇒ x = 180°× 1118 = 110°

∴ x = 110°

(iii) 5.5x + 15° = 180°

⇒ 5.5x = 180° – 15°

⇒ 5.5x = 165°

⇒  18x11=180°

⇒ x =  1655.5 165×1055 = 30°

∴ x = 30°
