Let's analyze and solve the questions from the image you uploaded.
Question 6:
The figure shows two parallel lines , and we're asked to find the value of . From the diagram:
- There is an angle of on one side.
- Another angle of on the opposite side of .
Since , we know that alternate interior angles and corresponding angles are equal. Using the linear pair property:
Thus, the correct answer is (b) 85°.
Question 7:
If a wheel has six spokes equally spaced, the total degrees in a circle is . The angle between two adjacent spokes is:
Thus, the correct answer is (c) 60°.
Question 8:
This question asks which statements are true based on the given figure with angles , , , , and .
- Statement (i) : This is true because vertically opposite angles are equal.
- Statement (ii) : This is true because the sum of the angles on a straight line is 180°.
- Statement (iii) : This is also true because they represent alternate interior angles.
Thus, all statements are correct, and the answer is (d) (ii) and (iii) both.
Question 9:
The angle which is two times its complement is . Let the complement of be . According to the problem, .
Solving this equation:
Thus, the correct answer is (a) 60°.
Question 10:
The angle which is two times its supplement is . Let the supplement of be . According to the problem, .
Solving this equation:
Thus, the correct answer is (d) 120°.
