Question
Find the value of x, y and z
Solution
∠DOB and ∠BOC are linear pair
∴ ∠DOB + ∠BOC = 180°
x + 3x + 40 = 180°
4x + 40 = 180°
4x + 40 – 40 = 180° – 40°
4x = 140°
x = `(140^circ)/4`
x = 35°
Also ∠BOD and ∠AOC are vertically opposite angles.
∴ ∠BOD = ∠AOC
x = z + 10
35° = z + 10
z + 10 – 10 = 35 – 10
z = 25°
Again ∠AOD and ∠AOC are linear pair.
∴ ∠AOD + ∠AOC = 180°
y + 30 + z + 10 = 180°
y + 30 + 25 + 10 = 180°
y + 65 = 180°
y + 65 – 65 = 180° – 65
y = 115°
∴ x = 35°,
y = 115°,
z = 25°
