               SUBTOPIC:Parallel Lines and a Transversal


                                                                                           0
               1.    In the given figure, l || m and a transversal t cuts them. If ∠1 = 120 , find the
                     measure of each of the remaining marked angles.



















                     Solution:
                                              0
                     It is given that ∠1 = 120
                     From the figure we know that ∠1 and ∠2 form a linear pair of angles
                                    0
                     ∠1 + ∠2 = 180
                                      0
                         0
                     120  + ∠2 = 180
                               0
                                     0
                     ∠2 = 180 - 120
                             0
                     ∠2 = 60
                     From the figure, we know that ∠1 and ∠3 are vertically opposite angles.
                                    0
                     ∠1 = ∠3 = 120
                     From the figure, we know that ∠2 and ∠4 are vertically opposite angles
                     So,
                                   0
                     ∠2 = ∠4 = 60
                     It is given that, l || m and ‘t’ is a transversal
                     So, the corresponding angles according to the figure is written as
                                    0
                     ∠1 = ∠5 = 120
                                   0
                     ∠2 = ∠6 = 60
                                    0
                     ∠3 = ∠7 = 120
                                   0
                     ∠4 = ∠8 = 60
                                                              1
