Lines & Angles (Practise Worksheet)

3. In the figure given below line m is parallel to line n. These lines are cut by
1.
two transversal lines r and s. Identify the type of the pair of angles, in the table
given below:

Pair of Angles Type of Angles

∠8 and ∠10

∠7 and ∠15

∠4 and ∠14

∠6 and ∠11

∠1 and ∠16

∠3 and ∠5

∠12 and ∠13

2. In Fig., line AB is parallel to CD. Find the values of a, b, c, d and justify
your answers.

3. When sunlight enters a drop of rain, different colours leave the

drop at different angles. That’s what makes a rainbow. For red light
m∠2 = 42°. What is m∠1? How do you know?
 Answer Key to Section A
1. (a) 6, (b) -5, (c) -1, (d) 2, (e) 7, (f) 2
2. (i) 0, (ii) Additive inverse (iii) 30, (iv) Negative (v) greater
(vi)greater, smaller
3.
1. Interior alternate angles, Corresponding angles, exterior alternate
angles, interior allied angles, exterior allied angles, vertically
opposite angles, linear pair of angles
Answer Key to Section B
1. ∠4 = 120° (Linear Pair), ∠1 = 120° (Corresponding angle with ∠4)
∠2 = 120° (Alternate angle with ∠1) , ∠3 = 120° (Corresponding angle with
∠1)

2.
∠a = 110° (Vertically opposite angle to 110°)
∠b = 110° (Corresponding angle with ∠a)
∠c = 85° (Alternate angle with 85°)
∠d = 110° (Corresponding angle with ∠c)
3. m∠1 = 42° ( Interior alternate angles)
4.
∠XEF = ∠YXU (Corresponding angles)
∠YXU = ∠QYS (Corresponding angles)
So, ∠UXE = 150° (Alternate angles)
Thus, Launching angle =180° -150°= 30°(Allied angles with ∠UXE)
5. (i) 59, (ii) -60 (iii) 48 (iv) 48 (v)89 (vi) -9
6. (i) 8 (ii)19 (iii) 30 (iv) 38 (v) 20 (vi)26
