THE TRIANGLE AND ITS PROPERTIES MCQs
:
B
Sum of lengths of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side. Hence, the given statement is false.
:
B
The sum of all the three angles of a triangle is 180∘.
We know that obtuse angle is an angle which is greater than 90∘ and less than 180∘
Hence a triangle cannot have two obtuse angles.
The sum of 2 obtuse angles will be greater than (90 + 90), i.e. greater than 180∘.
Since the sum of 2 angles of the triangle is more than 180∘, the sum of three angles will be more than 180∘ for sure.
This is not possible as the sum of 3 angles of a triangle is fixed i.e. 180∘ and cannot exceed this limit.
Thus, a triangle cannot have 2 obtuse angles.
:
Given ∠C = 60o and BC = AC,
Therefore ∠A=∠B (base angles are equal in an isosceles triangle)
∴ by angle sum property of triangle, ∠A=∠B=60o
We know that, ∠x +∠y = ∠A +∠B (Exterior angle property)
∴ ∠A+∠B+∠x+∠y=60∘+60∘+120∘=240∘
:
B
A triangle with two right angles is not possible, as the sum of all the three angles of a triangle is 180∘.
:
∠C = 60∘ and BC = AC,
By angle sum property of triangle, ∠A = ∠B = 60∘
Also,
∠ACB+∠x+∠y=1800 [ BCD is straight line]
⟹60∘+2y+y=180∘
⟹60∘+3y=180∘
⟹3y=180∘−60∘
⟹y=40∘
Hence, ∠B+y=60∘+40∘=100∘
:
C
∠ACB + ∠ABC= ∠DAC
[Exterior angle property]
∠ACB + 60∘=150∘ ∠ACB=90∘∴ Reflex ∠ACB =360∘−90∘ =270∘ =3×90∘ =3 right angles
:
We know that sum of the three angles of a triangle = 180∘
Therefore, x+2x+3x=180∘
or,6x=180∘,
x=1806=30∘
:
B
A triangle can't have all the three angles greater than 60∘, because the sum of all the three angles of a triangle is 180∘.
:
By Exterior Angle Property,
∠ACD = ∠A + ∠B
∠B = ∠ACD - ∠A
= 120∘ - 70∘
∠B = 50∘
