ANSWER KEY IN ACTIVITY 1
1. Asked: ∠A
Given: m ∠A= x + 15 and
m ∠E= 2x + 5
Solution: m ∠A ≅ m ∠E
x + 15 = 2x + 5
x = 10
m ∠ A = 10+15 = 25º
Answer: m ∠ A = 25º
2. Asked: m<A
Given: m ∠M=120°
Solution: x + 120° = 180°
X =180° -120°
X =60°
Answer: m ∠ A = 60°
3. Asked: DC
Given: AB=5x+2 and DC=3x + 6
Solution: 5x+2 = 3x + 6
5x – 3x = 6 – 2
2x = 4
x=2
DC = 3x + 6
= 3(2) + 6
= 6+6
= 12
Answer: DC = 12
ANSWER KEY IN ACTIVITY 2
1. Asked: XY
Given: AK= 8in,
CE= 20in
Solution: XY= ½ (AK + CE)
XY= ½ (8 + 20)
XY = ½ (28)
XY= 14 inches
Answer: XY= 14 inches
Based on the theorem, each pair of base angles in an isosceles trapezoid must be
congruent
So we have,
m∠S ≅ m∠M = 130°
Answers: ∠S = 130°
∠M = 130°
∠E = 50°
ANSWER KEY IN ACTIVITY 3
1. Asked: m∠O, m∠L
Given: m∠G=132°, m∠A=60°
Solution:
m∠G + m∠O + m∠A + m∠L = 360°
132° + x° + 60° + x° = 360°
2x° + 192° = 360°
2x° = 360° - 192°
2x°= 168°
x = 84°
Answer: m∠O = m∠L= 84°
1. Asked/ Find: Find the measure of each of the angles ∠B, ∠C and ∠D.
Given: ∠A = 75°.
Solution:
∠A + ∠B = 180°
⇒ 75° + ∠B = 180°
⇒∠B = (180° - 75°) = 105°
Also, ∠B + ∠C = 180° [Since, ∠B and ∠C are adjacent angles]
⇒ 105° + ∠C = 180°
⇒ ∠C = (180° - 105°) = 75°.
Further, ∠C + ∠D = 180° [Since, ∠C and ∠D are adjacent angles]
⇒ 75° + ∠D = 180°
⇒ ∠D = (180° - 75°) = 105°.
Answer: ∠B = 105°, ∠C = 75° and ∠D = 105°.
