- Question
- In the given figure, OP bisect ?BOC and OQ bisects ?AOC. Then ?POQ is equal to :
Options- A. 90°
- B. 120°
- C. 60°
- D. 100°
- Correct Answer
- 90°
ExplanationSince OP bisects ?BOC,
? ?BOC = 2?POC
Again, OQ bisects ?AOC,
? ?AOC = 2?QOC
Since ray OC stands on line AB, ?,
?AOC + ?BOC = 180°
? 2?QOC + 2?POC = 180°
? 2?QOC + ?POC = 180°
? ?QOC + ?POC = 90°
? ?POQ = 90°.

Correct Answer: 85°
Explanation:
?DCK = ?FDG = 55° (corr. ?s)
? ?ACE = ?DCK = 55° (vert. opp. ?s)
So, ?AEC = 180° ? (40° + 55°) = 85°
? ?HAB = ?AEC = 85° (corr. ?s)
Hence, x = 85°.
Correct Answer: 15°
Explanation:
Let, the angle be A
? Its complement angle = 90° ? A
According to the question
(90 ? A) = A + 60°
? 90 - 60 = A + A
? 2A = 30°
? A = 15°
Correct Answer: 125°
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 360°
Explanation:
In ?ACE
?A + ?C + ?E = 180°
Similarly in ?DFB
?D + ?F + ?B = 180°
? (?A + ?C + ?E) + (?D + ?F + ?B) = 360°
?A + ?B + ?C + ?D + ?E + ?F = 360°
Correct Answer: x = 8 or 9
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Rectangle
Explanation:
Correct Answer: BC > CA, CA < CD
Explanation:
According to question,
?B = ?C = 55° , ?D = 25°
We can say ,
AB = AC ( ? ?B = ?C = 55° )
In Triangle ABC,
?A + ?B + ?C = 180°
? ?A + 55° + 55° = 180°
? ?A + 110° = 180°
? ?A = 180° - 110°
? ?A = 70° ..........................(1)
As per given figure,
?ACD + ?ACB = 180° ( ?ACB = ?C = 55°)
? ?ACD + 55° = 180°
? ?ACD = 180° - 55°
? ?ACD = 125° ....................... (2)
Now in Triangle ACD,
?CAD + ?ACD + ?CDA = 180°
? ?CAD + 125° + 25° = 180°
? ?CAD + 150° = 180°
? ?CAD = 30° ...........................(3)
( In a ?, greater angle has longer side opposite to it )
From the equation (1) , (2) and (3);
?B < ?A and ?CAD > ?D ;
? BC > CA and CA < CD
Correct Answer: 17.5°
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 120 cm2
Explanation:
Given in the question, QR = 26 cm, PM = 6 cm, MR = 8 cm
According to question, in ? PMR
(Pythagoras Theorem)
PR = ?PM2 + MR2 = ?36 + 64 = ? 100 = 10 cm
According to question, in ? PQR
(Pythagoras Theorem)
PQ = ?QR2 - PR2 = ?262 - 102 = ?576 - 100 = ? 476 = 24
? area of triangle ?PQR = Base length x Height / 2
? area of triangle ?PQR = PR x PQ / 2
? area of triangle ?PQR = 10 x 24 / 2 = 10 x 12
? area of triangle ?PQR = 120
Correct Answer: 13.5 cm
