In figure 2.28, line PS is a transversalof parallel line AB and line CD. If RayQX, ray QY, ray RX, ray RY are anglebisectors, then prove that QXRY is arectangle. |

Answer» Given : Two parallel LINES AB and CD are intersected by a Transversal PR in points Q and R respectively. The bisectors of two PAIRS of interior angles intersect in Y and X. To prove: QXRY is a rectANGLE. Proof : and a Transversal QR intersects them < AQR = <QRD ( Alternate interior angles ) ( Halves of equals are equal ) => <1 = <2 But these form a PAIR of equal alternate interior angles. Similarly , we can show that /* From (1) and (2) , */ QYRX is a parallelogram. Now, The sum of consecutive interior angles on the same side of a Transversal is 180° . In ∆QRY , /* Angle sum Property */ /* A parallelogram with one of its angles of measure 90° is a rectangle. */ •••♪ |
