Question

In rectangle PAIR, find ∠ARI, ∠RMI and ∠PMA.

Sum

Solution

Given, ∠RAI = 35°

∴ ∠PRA = 35°   ...[PR || AI and AR is transversal]

⇒ ∠ARI = 90° – ∠PRA

= 90° – 35°

= 55°

∵ AM = IM,  

∠MIA + ∠MAI = 35°

In ΔAMI,

∠RMI = ∠MAI + ∠MIA = 70°  ...[Exterior angle]

Also, ∠RMI = ∠PMA

⇒ ∠PMA = 70°  ...[Vertically opposite angles]
