In given the figures if AB ll CD, CD ll EF and y :z =3:7find x ​

Answer»

SOLUTION :-

In this question, we are given with three lines which all are parallel to each other. A line is PASSING through all of them. It's called as a transversal line.

In the figure attached in the master, there is an other angle marked with the variable y, which says us that both the ANGLES named y are EQUAL. First, we'll find the values of y and Z.

The concept used to find the value of y and z is the concept called as 'The interior angles on the same side of the transversal always measures 180° totally'. So,

\sf \leadsto \angle{y} + \angle{z} = {180}^{\circ}

\sf \leadsto 3 : 7 = {180}^{\circ}

\sf \leadsto 3x + 7x = {180}^{\circ}

\sf \leadsto 10x = {180}^{\circ}

\sf \leadsto x = \dfrac{180}{10}

\sf \leadsto x = 18

Value of y :-

\sf \leadsto 3x = 3(18)

\sf \leadsto \angle{y} = {54}^{\circ}

Value of z :-

\sf \leadsto 7x = 7(18)

\sf \leadsto \angle{z} = {126}^{\circ}

Now, to find the value of the ∠x, we use the same concept which was used above i.e, 'The interior angles on the same side of the transversal always measures 180° totally'.

Value of x :-

\sf \leadsto \angle{x} + \angle{y} = {180}^{\circ}

\sf \leadsto \angle{x} + {54}^{\circ} = {180}^{\circ}

\sf \leadsto \angle{x} = 180 - 54

\sf \leadsto \angle{x} = {126}^{\circ}

Therefore, the value of the ∠x is 126°.
