Question

Consider

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 54

b = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a square. It's diagonals AC and BD intersects at G.

Since, diagonals of a square bisects at right angles.

$\therefore m\angle AGD = 90\degree$

$\implies a + 2b = 90\degree$

$\therefore a = 90\degree - 2b.....(1)$

Since, measure of each angle of a square is right angle.

$\therefore m\angle ABC = 90\degree$

$\implies 2a-b = 90\degree.......(2)$

From equations (1) & (2)

2(90° - 2b) - b = 90°

180° - 4b - b = 90°

-5b = 90° - 180°

-5b = - 90°

b = - 90°/(-5)

b = 18

Plug b = 18 in equation (1)

a = 90° - 2*18

a = 90° - 36°

a = 54
