    In the given figure, \[AB\bot CD,\]\[AP||CD,\]\[\angle CBP=142{}^\circ .\]Find \[\angle ABP\]and \[\angle APB.\]

    A) \[52{}^\circ ,\]\[38{}^\circ \]

    B) \[56{}^\circ ,\]\[34{}^\circ \]

    C) \[51{}^\circ ,\]\[39{}^\circ \]                

    D) \[57{}^\circ ,\]\[33{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\angle CBP+\angle PBD=180{}^\circ \] [linear pair ]
    \[142{}^\circ +\angle PBD=180{}^\circ \]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\angle PBD=180{}^\circ -142{}^\circ =38{}^\circ \]
    Now, \[AP||CD\]and \[PB\] is the transversal.
    \[\angle APB=\angle PBD\]          [alternate angles]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\angle APB=38{}^\circ \]         \[[\because \angle PBD=38{}^\circ ]\]
    \[\angle PAB+\angle ABD=180{}^\circ \]
    [sum of the internal angles on the same side of the transversal]
    \[\angle PAB+90{}^\circ =180{}^\circ \]\[[\because \angle ABD=90{}^\circ ]\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[\angle PAB=180{}^\circ -90{}^\circ =90{}^\circ \]
    In \[\Delta ABP,\]\[\angle ABP+\angle BPA+\angle PAB=180{}^\circ \]
    \[\angle ABP+38{}^\circ +90{}^\circ =180{}^\circ \]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\angle ABP=52{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \]\[\angle ABP=52{}^\circ \] and \[\angle APB=38{}^\circ \]
