    In the given figure, PQ, RS and UT are parallel lines. If \[c={{75}^{o}}\]and \[a=(2/5)c,\] find \[b+dl2\].                                   

    A)  \[{{92}^{o}}\]                                

    B)  \[{{115}^{o}}\]      

    C)  \[{{112.5}^{o}}\]        

    D) \[{{135.5}^{o}}\]         

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    We have, \[c={{75}^{o}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[a=\frac{2}{5}c=\frac{2}{5}\times {{75}^{o}}={{30}^{o}}\] Now, \[UT||PQ\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[c=a+b\]    (Alternate angles)             \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{75}^{o}}={{30}^{o}}+b\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,b={{75}^{o}}-{{30}^{o}}={{45}^{o}}\] Also,  \[PQ||RS\] \[\therefore \]  \[b+d={{180}^{o}}\]   (Co-interior angles) \[\Rightarrow \]  \[d={{180}^{o}}-{{45}^{o}}={{135}^{o}}\] So, \[b+\frac{d}{2}={{45}^{o}}+\frac{{{135}^{o}}}{2}={{45}^{o}}+{{67.5}^{o}}={{112.5}^{o}}\]
