Two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. Prove: Angle bisectors of the same side interior angles are perpendicular.
1 answer:
Answer:
The answer is given below
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram below,Let the line AB and CD be parallel line. Let transversal line EF cut AB at Y and transversal line EF cut CD at Z.
The bisector of ∠BYZ and ∠DZY meet at O. Therefore ∠YZO = ∠DZY/2 and ∠ZYO = ∠BYZ/2
∠BYZ and ∠DZY are interior angles.
∠BYZ + ∠DZY = 180 (sum of consecutive interior angles)
∠BYZ/2 + ∠DZY/2 = 180/2
∠BYZ/2 + ∠DZY/2 = 90°
In ΔOYZ:
∠YZO + ∠ZYO + ∠YOZ = 180 (sum of angles on a straight line).
But ∠YZO = ∠DZY/2 and ∠ZYO = ∠BYZ/2
∠DZY/2 + ∠BYZ/2 + ∠YOZ = 180
90 + ∠YOZ = 180
∠YOZ = 180 - 90
∠YOZ = 90°
Therefore Angle bisectors of the same side interior angles are perpendicular.

Answer: There are 6 pieces of cloth are rectangles and 9 pieces of cloth are triangles.
Explanation:
Since we have given that
For every 5 pieces of cloth, 2 are rectangles
So, remaining piece will be of triangle so,
3 are triangles.
Ratio of rectangles to triangles is 2:3.
Now, she needs 15 pieces of cloth to complete her scarf,
So, Number of rectangles is needed is given by
Number of triangles is needed is given by
Hence, there are 6 pieces of cloth are rectangles and 9 pieces of cloth are triangles.
