Question 31.
The adjacent angles of a parallelogram are (2x4) and (3x1). Find the measures of all angles of the parallelogram.
 Discuss Question

:
The adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.
(2x4)+(3x1)=180
5x5=1805x=185x=1855x=37
Thus, the adjacent angles are
2x4=2×374=744=70.
and 3x1=3×371=1111=110
Hence, the angles are 70,110,70,110.
[ Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal].
Question 32.
What is the sum of all the angles of a pentagon?
a) 180
b) 360
c) 540
d) 720
 Discuss Question

:
We know that, the sum of angles of a polygon
=(n2)×180,
where n is the number of sides of the polygon.
In pentagon, n = 5
Sum of the angles
=(n2)×180
=(52)×180
=3×180
=540
Question 33.
Which of the following properties describe a trapezium?
a) A pair of opposite sides is parallel
b) The diagonals bisect each other
c) The diagonals are perpendicular to each other
d) The diagonals are equal
 Discuss Question

:
We know that, in a trapezium, a pair of opposite sides are parallel.
Question 34.
A rhombus is a parallelogram in which ___ sides are equal.
 Discuss Question

:
all
A rhombus is a parallelogram in which allsides are equal.
Question 35.
A rectangle MORE is shown below.
A Rectangle MORE Is Shown Below.Answer The Following Questio...
Answer the following questions by giving an appropriate reason.
Is ΔMYOΔRXE?
 Discuss Question

:
Yes, ΔMYOΔRXE
In ΔMYO and ΔRXE
MO = RE [opposite sides are equal]
MOY=REX [Alternate angles, OMRE, OE is the transversal]
MYO=RXE [MY and RX are perpendicular to OE]
ΔMYOΔRXE [by AAS]
Question 36.
​​​​​​​A nonagon has ___ sides.
 Discuss Question

:
9
Nonagon is a polygon which has 9 sides.
Question 37.
Sum of the angles of a hexagon is ___.
 Discuss Question

:
720
The sum of angles of an n-gon (a polygon with n sides)
=(n2)×180.
Sum of the angles of a hexagon =(62)×180=4×180=720. [ In a hexagon, number of sides, n = 6]
Question 38.
A diagonal of a quadrilateral is a line segment that joins two ___ vertices of the quadrilateral.
 Discuss Question

:
non-adjacent / opposite
The line segment connecting twonon-adjacent / opposite vertices is called diagonal.
Question 39.
A quadrilateral can be constructed uniquely, if three angles and any two included sides are given.
 Discuss Question

:
True
We can construct a unique quadrilateral if three angles and two included sides are given.
Question 40.
For which of the following, diagonals bisect each other?
a) Square
b) Kite
c) Trapezium
d) Quadrilateral
 Discuss Question

:
We know that the diagonals of a square bisect each other but the diagonals of a trapezium, kite and quadrilateral do not bisect each other.
