    Exercise 10(B) 1.

    Solution:

    We know that in a parallelogram opposite angles are equal

    So we get

    ∠ A = ∠ C = 72o

    We that that in a parallelogram the sum of all the angles is 360o

    It can be written as

    ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C + ∠ D = 360o

    By substituting the values in the above equation

    72o + ∠ B + 72o + ∠ D = 360o

    We know that ∠ A = ∠ C and ∠ B = ∠ D

    So we can write it as

    2 ∠ B + 144o = 360o

    On further calculation

    2 ∠ B = 360o – 144o

    By subtraction

    2 ∠ B = 216o

    By division

    ∠ B = 108o

    Therefore, ∠ B = 108o, ∠ C = 72o and ∠ D = 108o.

    2.

    Solution:

    It is given that ABCD is a parallelogram in which ∠ DAB = 80o and ∠ DBC = 60o

    We know that opposite angles are equal in parallelogram

    So we get

    ∠ C = ∠ A = 80o

    From the figure we know that AD || BC and BD is a transversal

    We know that ∠ ADB and ∠ DBC are alternate angles

    So we get

    ∠ ADB = ∠ DBC = 60o

    Consider △ ABD

    Quadrilaterals

    Using the sum property of triangle

    ∠ A + ∠ ADB + ∠ ABD = 180o

    By substituting values in the above equation

    80o + 60o + ∠ ABD = 180o

    On further calculation

    ∠ ABD = 180o – 80o – 60o

    By subtraction

    ∠ ABD = 180o – 140o

    So we get

    ∠ ABD = 40o

    It can be written as

    ∠ ABC = ∠ ABD + ∠ DBC

    By substituting values we get

    ∠ ABC = 40o + 60o

    By addition

    ∠ ABC = 100o

    We know that the opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram

    ∠ ADC = ∠ ABC = 100o

    We get

    ∠ ADC = ∠ CDB + ∠ ADB

    On further calculation

    ∠ CDB = ∠ ADC – ∠ ADB

    By substituting values

    ∠ CDB = 100o – 60o

    By subtraction

    ∠ CDB = 40o

    Therefore, ∠ ADB = 60o and ∠ CDB = 40o.

    Quadrilaterals

    So we get

    ∠ DAM = ∠ AMB

    We know that ∠ BAM = ∠ DAM

    It can be written as

    ∠ BAM = ∠ AMB

    From the figure we know that the sides opposite to equal angles are equal

    So we get

    BM = AB

    We know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal

    AB = CD

    So we can write it as

    BM = AB = CD ……. (1)

    We know that M is the midpoint of the line BC

    So we get

    BM = ½ BC

    We know that BC = AD

    We get

    BM = ½ AD

    Based on equation (1)

    CD = ½ AD

    By cross multiplication

    AD = 2CD.

    Therefore, it is proved that AD = 2CD.

    4.

    Solution:

    (i) We know that opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram.

    So we get

    ∠ C = ∠ A = 60o

    We know that the sum of all the angles in a parallelogram is 360o

    It can be written as

    ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C + ∠ D = 360o

    So we get

    ∠ B + ∠ D = 360o – (∠ A + ∠ C)

    Quadrilaterals

    By substituting values in the above equation we get

    ∠ B + ∠ D = 360o – (60o + 60o)

    On further calculation we get

    ∠ B + ∠ D = 360o – 120o

    By subtraction

    ∠ B + ∠ D = 240o

    We know that ∠ B = ∠ B

    So the above equation becomes

    ∠ B + ∠ B = 240o

    2 ∠ B = 240o

    By division

    ∠ B = ∠ D = 120o

    We know that AB || DP and AP is a transversal

    From the figure we know that ∠ APD and ∠ PAD are alternate angles

    ∠ APD = ∠ PAD = 60o/2

    ∠ APD = ∠ PAD = 30o ……. (1)

    We know that AB || PC and BP is a transversal

    So we get

    ∠ ABP = ∠ CPB = ∠ B/2

    i.e. ∠ ABP = ∠ CPB = 120o/2

    We get ∠ ABP = ∠ CPB = 60o …….. (2)

    We know that DPC is a straight line

    It can be written as

    ∠ APD + ∠ APB + ∠ CPB = 180o

    By substituting the values we get

    30o + ∠ APB + 60o = 180o

    On further calculation

    ∠ APB = 180o – 30o – 60o

    By subtraction

    ∠ APB = 180o – 90o

    ∠ APB = 90o

    Therefore, it is proved that ∠ APB = 90o

    (ii) From equation (1) we know that

    ∠ APD = 30o

    We know that

    ∠ DAP = 60o/2

    By division

    ∠ DAP = 30o

    So we get

    ∠ APD = ∠ DAP ……… (3)

    From the figure we know that the sides of an isosceles triangle are equal

    So we get

    DP = AD

    We know that

    ∠ CPB = 60o and ∠ C = 60o

    By sum property of triangle

    We get

    ∠ C + ∠ CPB + ∠ PBC = 180o

    By substituting the values in the above equation

    60o + 60o + ∠ PBC = 180o

    On further calculation we get

    ∠ PBC = 180o – 60o – 60o

    By subtraction

    ∠ PBC = 180o – 120o

    ∠ PBC = 60o

    We know that all the sides of an equilateral triangle are equal

    So we get

    PB = PC = BC ………. (4)

    Therefore, it is proved that AD = AP and PB = PC = BC.

    (iii) We know that ∠ DPA = ∠ PAD based on equation (3)

    We also know that all the sides are equal in an isosceles triangle

    DP = AD

    From the figure we know that the opposite sides are equal

    So we get

    Quadrilaterals

    DP = BC

    Considering equation (4)

    DP = PC

    From the figure we know that DP = PC and P is the midpoint of the line DC

    So we get

    DP = ½ DC

    By cross multiplication we get

    DC = 2AD

    Therefore, it is proved that DC = 2AD.

    5.

    Solution:

    (i) From the figure we know that ∠ AOB and ∠ COD are vertically opposite angles

    So we get

    ∠ AOB = ∠ COD = 105o

    Consider △ AOB

    By sum property of a triangle

    ∠ OAB + ∠ AOB + ∠ ABO = 180o

    By substituting the values in above equation

    35o + 105o + ∠ ABO = 180o

    On further calculation

    ∠ ABO = 180o – 35o – 105o

    By subtraction

    ∠ ABO = 180o – 140o

    ∠ ABO = 40o

    (ii) We know that AB || DC and BD is a transversal

    From the figure we know that ∠ ABD and ∠ CDB are alternate angles

    It can be written as

    ∠ CDO = ∠ CDB = ∠ ABD = ∠ ABO = 40o

    So we get

    ∠ ODC = 40o

    (iii) We know that AB || CD and AC is a transversal

    From the figure we know that ∠ ACB and ∠ DAC are alternate opposite angles

    https://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-clickhttps://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-click

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    So we get

    ∠ ACB = ∠ DAC = 40o

    (iv) We know that ∠ B can be written as

    ∠ B = ∠ CBD + ∠ ABO

    So we get

    ∠ CBD = ∠ B – ∠ ABO

    In a parallelogram we know that the sum of all the angles is 360o

    So we get

    ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C + ∠ D = 360o

    It can be written as

    2 ∠ A + 2 ∠ B = 360o

    By substituting values in the above equation

    2 (40o + 35o) + 2 ∠ B = 360o

    On further calculation

    2 (75o) + 2 ∠ B = 360o

    So we get

    150o + 2 ∠ B = 360o

    2 ∠ B = 360o – 150o

    By subtraction

    2 ∠ B = 210o

    By division

    ∠ B = 105o

    So we get

    ∠ CBD = ∠ B – ∠ ABO

    By substituting values

    ∠ CBD = 105o – 40o

    By subtraction

    ∠ CBD = 65o

    6.

    Solution:

    We know that the opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram

    Consider parallelogram ABCD

    https://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-clickhttps://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-click

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    So we get

    ∠ A = ∠ C = (2x + 25) o

    ∠ B = ∠ D = (3x – 5) o

    We know that the sum of all the angles of a parallelogram is 360o

    So it can be written as

    ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C + ∠ D = 360o

    By substituting the values in the above equation

    (2x + 25) + (3x – 5) + (2x + 25) + (3x – 5) = 360o

    By addition we get

    10x + 40o = 360o

    By subtraction

    10x = 360o – 40o

    So we get

    10x = 320o

    By division we get

    x = 32o

    Now substituting the value of x

    ∠ A = ∠ C = (2x + 25) o = (2(32) + 25) o

    ∠ A = ∠ C = (64 + 25) o

    By addition

    ∠ A = ∠ C = 89o

    ∠ B = ∠ D = (3x – 5) o = (3(32) – 5) o

    ∠ B = ∠ D = (96 – 5) o

    By subtraction

    ∠ B = ∠ D = 91o

    Therefore, x = 32o, ∠ A = ∠ C = 89o and ∠ B = ∠ D = 91o.

    7.

    Solution:

    Consider ABCD as a parallelogram

    If ∠ A = xo

    We know that ∠ B is adjacent to A which can be written as 4/5 xo

    Opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram

    https://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-clickhttps://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-click

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    So we get

    ∠ A = ∠ C = xo and ∠ B = ∠ D = 4/5 xo

    We know that the sum of all the angles of a parallelogram is 360o

    It can be written as

    ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C + ∠ D = 360o

    By substituting the values in the above equation

    x + (4/5) x + x + (4/5) x = 360o

    By addition we get

    2x + (8/5) x = 360o

    By taking the LCM as 5

    (18/5) x = 360o

    By cross multiplication

    x = (360 × 5)/18

    On further calculation

    x = 100o

    By substituting the value of x

    So we get

    ∠ A = ∠ C = x = 100o

    ∠ B = ∠ D = 4/5 xo = (4/5) (100o) = 80o

    Therefore, ∠ A = ∠ C = x = 100o and ∠ B = ∠ D = 80o.

    8.

    Solution:

    Consider ABCD as a parallelogram

    Let us take ∠ A as the smallest angle

    So we get

    ∠ B = 2 ∠ A – 30o

    We know that the opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram

    ∠ A = ∠ C and ∠ B = ∠ D = 2 ∠ A – 30o

    We know that the sum of all the angles of a parallelogram is 360o

    It can be written as

    ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C + ∠ D = 360o

    By substituting the values in the above equation

    https://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-clickhttps://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-click

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    ∠ A + (2 ∠ A – 30o) + ∠ A + (2 ∠ A – 30o) = 360o

    On further calculation

    ∠ A + 2 ∠ A – 30o + ∠ A + 2 ∠ A – 30o = 360o

    So we get

    6 ∠ A – 60o = 360o

    By addition

    6 ∠ A = 360o + 60o

    6 ∠ A = 420o

    By division

    ∠ A = 70o

    By substituting the value of ∠ A

    ∠ A = ∠ C = 70o

    ∠ B = ∠ D = 2 ∠ A – 30o = 2 (70o) – 30o

    ∠ B = ∠ D = 110o

    Therefore, ∠ A = ∠ C = 70o and ∠ B = ∠ D = 110o.

    9.

    Solution:

    We know that the perimeter of parallelogram ABCD can be written as

    Perimeter = AB + BC + CD + DA

    We know that opposite sides of parallelogram are equal

    AB = CD and BC = DA

    By substituting the values

    Perimeter = 9.5 + BC + 9.5 + BC

    It is given that perimeter = 30 cm

    So we get

    30 = 19 + 2BC

    It can be written as

    2BC = 30 – 19

    By subtraction

    2BC = 11

    By division we get

    BC = 5.5 cm

    https://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-clickhttps://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-click

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    Therefore, AB = 9.5 cm, BC = 5.5 cm, CD = 9.5 cm and DA = 5.5 cm.

    10.

    Solution:

    (i) We know that all the sides are equal in a rhombus

    Consider △ ABC

    We know that AB = BC

    It can be written as

    ∠ CAB = ∠ ACB = xo

    By sum property of a triangle

    We get

    ∠ CAB + ∠ ABC + ∠ ACB = 180o

    By substituting the values in above equation

    x + 110o + x = 180o

    By addition we get

    2x + 110o = 180o

    On further calculation

    2x = 180o – 110o

    By subtraction

    2x = 70o

    By division

    x = 35o

    Therefore, x = 35o and y = 35o.

    (ii) We know that all the sides are equal in a rhombus

    Consider △ ABD

    We get

    AB = AD and

    ∠ ABD = ∠ ADB

    It can be written as

    x = y ……. (1)

    Consider △ ABC

    Quadrilaterals

    ∠ CAB = ∠ ACB

    We know that

    ∠ ACB = 40o

    By using the sum property of a triangle

    ∠ B + ∠ CAB + ∠ ACB = 180o

    By substituting values in the above equation

    ∠ B + 40o + 40o = 180o

    On further calculation

    ∠ B = 180o – 40o – 40o

    By subtraction

    ∠ B = 180o – 80o

    So we get

    ∠ B = 100o

    ∠ DBC can be written as

    ∠ DBC = ∠ B – xo

    By substituting the values

    ∠ DBC = 100o – xo

    From the figure we know that ∠ DBC and ∠ ADB are alternate angles

    ∠ DBC = ∠ ADB = yo

    By substituting the value of ∠ DBC

    100o – xo = yo

    Consider the equation (1) we know that x = y

    100o – xo = xo

    On further calculation

    2xo = 100o

    By division

    xo = 50o

    Therefore, x = y = 50o.

    (iii) From the figure we know that

    ∠ A = ∠ C = 62o

    Consider △ BCD

    We get

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    BC = DC

    It can be written as

    ∠ CDB = ∠ DBC = yo

    Using the sum property of triangle

    ∠ BDC + ∠ DBC + ∠ BCD = 180o

    By substituting the values

    y + y + 62o = 180o

    On further calculation

    2y = 180o – 62o

    By subtraction

    2y = 118o

    By division

    y = 59o

    We know that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other

    Consider △ COD as a right angle triangle

    ∠ DOC = 90o

    ∠ ODC = y = 59o

    It can be written as

    ∠ DCO + ∠ ODC = 90o

    To find ∠ DCO

    ∠ DCO = 90o – ∠ ODC

    By substituting the values

    ∠ DCO = 90o – 59o

    ∠ DCO = x = 31o

    Therefore, x = 31o and y = 59o.

    11.

    Solution:

    We know that ABCD is a rhombus

    It is given that AC = 24cm and BD = 18cm

    In a rhombus we know that the diagonals bisect each other at right angles

    Consider △ AOB

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    ∠ AOB = 90o

    To find AO and BO

    We know that

    AO = ½ AC

    By substituting AC

    AO = ½ (24)

    AO = 12 cm

    BO = ½ BD

    By substituting BD

    BO = ½ (18)

    BO = 9 cm

    Based on the Pythagoras Theorem

    AB2 = AO2 + OB2

    By substituting values

    AB2 = 122 + 92

    So we get

    AB2 = 144 + 81

    By addition

    https://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-clickhttps://byjus.com/?utm_source=pdf-click

  • RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10

    Quadrilaterals

    AB2 = 225

    AB = √ 225

    So we get

    AB = 15 cm

    Therefore, the length of each side of the rhombus is 15 cm.

    12.

    Solution:

    We know that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect at right angles

    We get

    AO = OC = ½ AC

    We know that AC = 16 cm

    AO = OC = ½ (16) = 8 cm

    Consider △ AOB

    Using the Pythagoras Theorem

    AB2 = AO2 + OB2

    By substituting values

    102 = 82 + OB2

    On further calculation

    OB2 = 100 – 64

    By subtraction

    OB2 = 36

    So we get

    OB = √ 36

    OB = 6 cm

    We know that the length of other diagonal

    BD = 2 × OB

    By substituting the value

    BD = 2 × 6

    BD = 12 cm

    Quadrilaterals

    From the figure the area of

    △ ABC = ½ × AC × OB

    By substituting the values

    △ ABC = ½ × 16 × 6

    By multiplication

    △ ABC = 48 cm2

    △ ACD = ½ × AC × OD

    By substituting the values

    △ ACD = ½ × 16 × 6

    By multiplication

    △ ACD = 48 cm2

    So we can calculate the area of rhombus as

    Area of rhombus = area of △ ABC + area of △ ACD

    We get

    Area of rhombus = 48 + 48 = 96 cm2

    Therefore, the length of other diagonal is 12 cm and the area of rhombus is 96 cm2.

    Quadrilaterals

    (i) From the figure we know that the diagonals are equal and bisect at point O.

    Consider △ AOB

    We get AO = OB

    We know that the base angles are equal

    ∠ OAB = ∠ OBA = 35o

    By using the sum property of triangle

    ∠ AOB + ∠ OAB + ∠ OBA = 180o

    By substituting the values we get

    ∠ AOB + 35o + 35o = 180o

    On further calculation

    ∠ AOB = 180o – 35o – 35o

    By subtraction

    ∠ AOB = 180o – 70o

    ∠ AOB = 110o

    From the figure we know that the vertically opposite angles are equal

    ∠ DOC = ∠ AOB = y = 110o

    In △ ABC

    We know that ∠ ABC = 90o

    Consider △ OBC

    We know that

    ∠ OBC = xo = ∠ ABC – ∠ OBA

    By substituting the values

    ∠ OBC = 90o – 35o

    By subtraction

    ∠ OBC = 55o

    Therefore, x = 55o and y = 110o.

    (ii) From the figure we know that the diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisect each other.

    Consider △ AOB

    We get

    OA = OB

    We know that the base angles are equal

    Quadrilaterals

    By using the sum property of triangle

    ∠ AOB + ∠ OAB + ∠ OBA = 180o

    By substituting the values

    110o + ∠ OAB + ∠ OBA = 180o

    We know that ∠ OAB = ∠ OBA

    So we get

    2 ∠ OAB = 180o – 110o

    By subtraction

    2 ∠ OAB = 70o

    By division

    ∠ OAB = 35o

    We know that AB || CD and AC is a transversal

    From the figure we know that ∠ DCA and ∠ CAB are alternate angles

    ∠ DCA = ∠ CAB = yo = 35o

    Consider △ ABC

    We know that

    ∠ ACB + ∠ CAB = 90o

    So we get

    ∠ ACB = 90o – ∠ CAB

    By substituting the values in above equation

    ∠ ACB = 90o – 35o

    By subtraction

    ∠ ACB = x = 55o

    Therefore, x = 55o and y = 35o.
