110
Step 1
If you look at the figure carefully, you will notice that the angle BAC = 30, BDE = 40.
Step 2
According to question AB and DE are parallel.
Therefore the angles ABC and BDE are alternate interior angles.
ABC = BDE [Alternate interior angles]
ABC = 40
Step 3
The sum of all three angles of a triangle is 180.
Now in triangle ABC,
ABC + BAC + ACB = 180
40 + 30 + ACB = 180 [Since ABC = 40 and BAC = 30]
70 + ACB = 180
ACB = 180 - 70
ACB = 110
Step 4
Therefore the value of ACB is 110.

72
Step 1
Le us assume that x be the first interior angle on the same side of a transversal intersecting
two parallel lines.
Step 2
Since the sum of the two interior angles on the same side of a transversal intersecting two
parallel lines is 180
Therefore the second interior angle on the same side of a transversal intersecting two parallel
lines = 180 - x
and the ratio of the two interior angles on the same side of a transversal intersecting two
x
parallel lines =
180 - x
Step 3
Since the ratio of the two interior angles on the same side of a transversal intersecting two
parallel lines = 2:3
Therefore
x
180 - x

360

x = 72
Step 4
The first angle = 72
The second angle = 180 - 72 = 108
Step 5
Therefore the smaller of the two angles is = 72

If you look at the angles 95 and z + 41, these are opposite angles and we know that opposite
angles are equal.
Therefore z + 41 = 95
or z = 95 - 41
or z = 54

b. 118
Step 1
Construcyion: Draw a line MN which is parallel to the line PQ and the line AB.
If you look at the given figure carefully, you will notice that, the addition of the angle Z1, angle
Z2 and angle Z makes full angle and full angle is exactly 360.
Therefore, angle Z1 + angle Z2 + angle Z = 360,
angle Z = 360 - angle Z1 - angle Z2.
Step 2
Angle P = 59, angle Z1 and angle P are alternate angles,
angle Z1 = angle P,
angle Z1 = 59.
Step 3
Similarly, angle A = 59, angle Z2 and angle A are alternate angles,
angle Z2 = angle A
angle Z2 = 59.
Step 4
Angle Z = angle Z1 + angle Z2
= 59 + 59
= 118.
Step 5
Therefore, the angle Z is 118.

c. 80
Step 1
According to question DOC = 40 and OD is perpendicular to AB. Therefore AOD = 90 and
BOD = 90.
Step 2
DOC + AOC = AOD
40 + AOC = 90 [Since AOD = 90 and DOC = 40]
AOC = 90 - 40
AOC = 50
Step 3
Now BOC - AOC = BOD + DOC - AOC [Since BOC = BOD + DOC]
= 90 + 40 - 50 [Since BOD = 90, DOC = 40 and AOC = 50]
= 80
Step 4
Therefore BOC - AOC = 80

Step 1
If you read the question carefully, you will notice that the difference of time from 6:15 O'clock
to 11:30 O'clock is 5 hours 15 minutes.
Since we know that 1 hour = 60 minutes.
and 5 hours = 5 60 = 300 minutes.
therefore 5 hours 15 minutes = 300 + 15 = 315 minutes.
Step 2
Since number of right angles made by a minute-hand in 60 minutes(1 hour) = 4 right angles
number of right angles made by a minute-hand in 1 minutes =
right angles
60

60
315 = 21 right
angles
Step 3
Therefore we can say that the number of right angles made by a minute-hand move from 6:15
O'clock to 11:30 O'clock are 21.

An angle is the space between two intersecting lines at or close to the point where they meet.
Step 2
If you look the picture carefully you will notice that 8 angles are formed in this picture. Angles
are ABC, BAC, ACB, ACD, ADC, CAD, DAB, DCB.

105
Step 1
If you look at the figure carefully, you will notice that ADE = 30 and DBC = 135.
Step 2
According to question AC and EF are parallel.
Therefore we can say that EDB and DBC are alternate interior angles.
Step 3
Now EDB = DBC [Alternate interior angles]
ADE + ADB = DBC [Since EDB = ADE + ADB]
ADB = 135 - ADE [Since ADB = 135]
ADB = 135 - 30 [Since ADE = 30]
ADB = 105
Step 4
Therefore ADB = 105
