    If y is five times of x, find the values of x, y and z.                                 

    A)
    x    y     z            
    \[{{20}^{o}}\] 80   \[{{140}^{o}}\]        
                   

    B)
    x    y     z            
    \[{{30}^{o}}\] \[{{80}^{o}}\]   \[{{140}^{o}}\]  
                   

    C)
    x    y     z            
    \[{{20}^{o}}\] \[{{100}^{o}}\] \[{{160}^{o}}\] 
                   

    D)
    x    y     z            
    \[{{30}^{o}}\] \[{{100}^{o}}\] \[{{160}^{o}}\]                

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    As, \[y=5x\] In   \[\Delta RQS,\] \[x+y+{{60}^{o}}={{180}^{o}}\](Angle sum property) \[\Rightarrow \]  \[x+5x+{{60}^{o}}={{180}^{o}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[6x={{180}^{o}}-{{60}^{o}}={{120}^{o}}\Rightarrow x=\frac{{{120}^{o}}}{6}={{20}^{o}}\] \[\therefore \]   \[y=5\times {{20}^{o}}={{100}^{o}}\] Also   \[\angle QRS+\angle QSR=z\] (Exterior angle property)             \[\Rightarrow \]  \[z={{60}^{o}}+{{100}^{o}}={{160}^{o}}\]
