12. If straight lines AB and CD intersect at a point O , then the values of a, b and c are
D A
b
(2a-5)° a+35°
O
B c C

A) a  40, b  c  105 B) a  30, b  c  110

C) a  30, b  50, c  40 D) a  40, b  30, c  40
Answer: A
Solution: Since AOC & BOD are vertically opposite angle
a  35  2a  50
 2a  a  35  5
 a  40
also AOD & AOC  180 (linear pair)
 b   a  35  180
 b   40  35   180
 b  75  180
 b  105  c (vertically opposite angles)
 a  40, b  c  105

Solution: Let the angle is x
1
According to sum x   90  x   40
6

 90  x  40  x
6
 90  x  6  40  x 
 90  x  240  6 x
 6 x  x  150
 5 x  150
x  30
