    In the given figure,\[AB||CD\]and PQ, QR intersects AB and CD both at E, F and G, H respectively. Find the value of\[x.\]

    A) \[{{40}^{o}}\]

    B) \[{{20}^{o}}\]

    C) \[{{100}^{o}}\]

    D)        \[{{30}^{o}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    In the given figure, \[AB||CD\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\angle PEB=\angle PGD={{80}^{o}}\](corresponding angles) Now, EGQ is a straight line. \[\therefore \]\[\angle EGD+\angle DGQ={{180}^{o}}\](linear pair) \[\Rightarrow \] \[\angle DGQ={{100}^{o}}\] Now, \[\angle QHD=x+\angle DGQ\](exterior angle property) \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{120}^{o}}=x+{{100}^{o}}\Rightarrow x={{20}^{o}}\]
