Exercise 4.1

Question 1.
Find the complement of each of the following angles
(i) 63°
(ii) 24°
(iii) 48°
Solution:
(i) The complement of 63° = 90° – 63° = 27°
(ii) The complement of 24° = 90° – 24° = 66°
(iii) The complement of 48° = 90° – 48° = 42°

Solution:
Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Chapter 4 Geometry Additional Questions 8

Question 5.
In the given figure at right, side BC of ∆ABC is produced to D. Find ∠A and ∠C.
Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Chapter 4 Geometry Additional Questions 9
Solution:
From the figure
Exterior angle = 120°
⇒ ∠C = 180° – 120° = 60° (linear pair)
∴ ∠A = 180° – (40° + 60°) = 80°

Exercise 4.2

Question 1.
If the measures of three angles of a quadrilateral are 100°, 84° and 76° then, find the measure of fourth angle.
Solution:
Let the measure of the fourth angle be x°.
The sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°
So, 100° + 84° + 76° + x° = 360°
260° + x° = 360°
x = 360° – 260° = 100°
Hence, the measure of the fourth angle is 100°.

Question 2.
In the parallelogram ABCD if ∠A = 65°, find ∠B, ∠C and ∠D.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a parallelogram in which ∠A = 65°
Since AD || BC we can treat AB as a transversal. So
∠A+∠B = 180°
Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Chapter 4 Geometry Additional Questions 9
65° +∠B = 180°
∠B = 180°-65°
∠B = 115°
Since the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal, we have
∠C = ∠A = 65° and ∠D = ∠B = 115°
Hence, ∠B = 115°, ∠C = 65° and ∠D = 115°

Question 3.
If ABCD is a rhombus and if ∠A = 76°, find ∠CDB.
Solution:
∠A = ∠C = 76° (Opposite angles of a rhombus)
Let ∠CDB = x°. In ∆CDB, CD = CB
∠CDB + ∠CBD + ∠DCB = 180° (Angles of a triangle)
Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Chapter 4 Geometry Additional Questions 90
2x° + 76° = 180° ⇒ 2x° = 104°
x° = 52°
∴ ∠CDB = 52°

Question 4.
In a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal
Solution:
Given ABCD is a parallelogram
To Prove ABCD and DA = BC
Construction Join AC
Proof
Since ABCD is a parallelogram
Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Chapter 4 Geometry Additional Questions 60
AD || BC and AC is the transversal
∠DAC = ∠BCA ➝ (1) (alternate angles are equal)
AB || DC and AC is the transversal
∠BAC = ∠DCA ➝ (2) (alternate angles are equal)
In ∆ADC and ∆CBA
∠DAC = ∠BCA from (1)
AC is common
∠DCA = ∠BAC from (2)
∆ADC ≅ ∆CBA (By ASA)
Hence AD = CB and DC = BA (Corresponding sides are equal)

Question 5.
The angles of a quadrilateral are ¡n the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 : 4. Find all the angles. Let each ratio be x.
Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Chapter 4 Geometry Additional Questions 45
Solution:
Then the angles are x°, 2x°, 3x°, 4x°
x° + 2x° + 3x° + 4x° = 360°
