RD SHARMA Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10 - Lines and Angles
Chapter 10 - Lines and Angles Exercise Ex. 10.1
Write the complement of each of the following angles:
(i) 20o
(ii) 35o
(iii) 90o
(iv) 77o
(v) 30o
Write the supplement of each of the following angles:
(i) 54o
(ii) 132o
(iii) 138o
(i) 54°
Since, the sum of an angle and its supplement is 180°
∴Its supplement will be 180° - 54° = 126°.
(ii) 132°
Since, the sum of an angle and its supplement is 180°
∴Its supplement will be 180° - 132° = 48°.
(iii) 138°
Since, the sum of an angle and its supplement is 180°
∴Its supplement will be 180° - 138° = 42°.
If an angle is 28o less than its complement, find its measure.
If an angle is 30o more than one half of its complement, find the measure of the angle.
If the complement of an angle is equal to the supplement of the thrice of it. Find the measure of angle.
Let the measure of the angle be xo.
Its complement will be (90o - xo) and its supplement will be (180o - xo).
Supplement of thrice of the angle = (180o - 3xo)
According to the given information:
(90o - xo) = (180o - 3xo)
3x - x = 180 - 90
2x = 90
x = 45
Thus, the measure of the angle is 45o.
The measure of the angle is 45o
