State the property that is used in each of the following statements:(i) If a b, then ∠1 = ∠5.(ii) If ∠4 = ∠6, then a b.(iii) If ∠4 + ∠5 + 180°, then a b. |

Answer» (i) Given, a b then ∠1 = ∠5 [Corresponding angles] If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, each pair of corresponding angles are equal in measure. (ii) Given, ∠4 = ∠6, then a b [Alternate interior angles] When a transversal cuts two lines such that pairs of alternate interior angles are equal, the lines have to be parallel. (iii) Given, ∠4 + ∠5 = 180°, then a b [supplementry angle] When a transversal cuts two lines, such that pairs of interior angles on the same side of transversal are supplementary, the lines have to be parallel. |
