In △BCE, 44

A F D
BCE + CBE + BEC = 180 ( sum of △)

68 + CBE + 44 = 180 (1M)

68
CBE = 68 B C
In parallelogram ABCD,

CDF = CBA (opp. s of // gram) (1M)

= 68 (1M)

2. In the figure, ABCD is a parallelogram. AC and BD intersect at E. Find the values of x and y. (3 marks)

A D

3. In the figure, ABCD is a quadrilateral. A D

(a) Find the value of x. x + 17 (3 marks)
3x – 17
(b) Prove that ABCD is a parallelogram. (2 marks)
118
107 – x
B C
(a) ABC + BCD + CDA + DAB = 360 ( sum of polygon)

(107 – x) + 118 + (x + 17) + (3x – 17) = 360 (1M)

3x + 225 = 360 (1M)

3x = 135

x = 45 (1M)

(b) ABC = 107 – 45 = 62

CDA = 45 + 17 = 62 (1M)

DAB = 3(45) – 17 = 118
∵ ABC = CDA = 62

BCD = DAB = 118

∴ ABCD is a parallelogram. opp. s equal (1M)

A
AED = 90 (property of rhombus) (1M) 12 cm
20 cm
In △ADE,
B D
DE2 + AE2 = AD2 (Pyth. theorem) E
DE2 + (12 cm)2 = (20 cm)2 (1M)

DE = 202 − 122 cm C

2. In the figure, ABCD is a rectangle. E is a point on BC such that AED = 90. CDE = 55.
Find BAE. (3 marks)
A D
55
BAD = ADC = 90 (definition of rectangle) (1M)

ADE = 90 – 55

B C
E
= 35
In △ADE,

DAE + AED + ADE = 180 ( sum of △) (1M)

DAE + 90 + 35 = 180

DAE = 55

BAE = 90 – 55

= 35 (1M)

3. In the figure, ABCD is a square. E is a point on AB such that AEC = 106. Find ACE. (3 marks)

A D
CAE = 45 (property of square) (1M)
In △ACE,
106
CAE + AEC + ACE = 180 ( sum of △) (1M) E
B C
45 + 106 + ACE = 180

ACE = 29 (1M)

In △ABE,

∵ BA = BE given B
C

∴ BEA = BAE base s, isos. △ (1M)

(3 marks)
(a) AC = BD property of square (1M)
B C
E
ACE = BDF property of square (1M)
CE = DF given
∴ △AEC  △BFD SAS (1M)

(b) BFD + BFC = 180 (adj. s on st. line)

BFD + 60 = 180

BFD = 120 (1M)

△AEC  △BFD (proved in (a))

AEC = BFD (corr. s, △s) (1M)
