- Find the measure of an angle that is supplementary to 120°.
Solution: The measure of the supplementary angle is 60°.
- Identify the pairs of adjacent angles in the figure below.
Solution: The pairs of adjacent angles are ∠AOE and ∠EOC, ∠EOC and ∠COB, ∠AOC and ∠COB, ∠COB and ∠BOD, and ∠EOB and ∠BOD.
Section 3: Long Answer Questions
- In the figure below, ∠ROS is a right angle and ∠POR and ∠QOS are in the ratio 1 : 5. Find the measure of ∠QOS.
Solution: ∠POR and ∠QOS are in the ratio 1 : 5. Therefore, ∠QOS = 5 × ∠POR. Since ∠ROS is a right angle, ∠POR + ∠QOS = 90°. Therefore, ∠QOS = 5 × ∠POR = 5 × (90° – ∠POR) = 450° – 5 × ∠POR. This equation can be solved for ∠POR, and then ∠QOS can be found.
- Find the measure of an angle that is supplementary to 27°.
Solution: The measure of the supplementary angle is 153°.
- In the figure below, if QP || SR, find the value of a.
Solution: Since QP || SR, ∠QOS and ∠TSO are co-interior angles. Therefore, ∠QOS = ∠TSO. Also, ∠QOS + ∠TSO = 180°. Therefore, a = 85°.
