PQ straight line, intersects AB||CD]|EF at points R, S, T.
If y : z = 3 : 7, then value of ‘x’ = ?
PQ straight line intersects CD||EF at S and T.
∴ ∠CSR = ∠DST = y (∵ vertically opposite angle)
But, ∠DST + ∠STF = 180°
(∵ Sum of interior angles in the same side)
∴ y + z = 180°
But, y : z = 3 : 7.
Sum of ratio 3 + 7 = 10
If ratio 10 means 180
If ratio 9 means ?
\(\frac{180\times3}{10}\) = 54°
∴ y = 54° y + z = 180
54 + z = 180
∴ z = 180 – 54
∴ z = 126°
But, x + y = 180
(∵ Sum of interior angles on one side)
x + 54 = 180
∵ x = 180 – 54
∵ x = 126°.
