Q.1 Find the complement of each of the following angles:

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

(i) Complement of 20° = 90° – 20° = 70°
(ii) Complement of 63° = 90° – 63° = 27°
(iii) Complement of 57° = 90° – 57° = 33°

Q.2 Find the supplement of each of the following angles:

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

(i) Supplement of 105° = 180° – 105° = 75°
(ii) Supplement of 87° = 180° – 87° = 93°
(iii) Supplement of 154° = 180° – 154° = 26°

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

(i) 65° (+) 115° = 180°
They are supplementary angles.
(ii) 63° (+) 27° = 90°
They are complementary angles.
(iii) 112° (+) 68° = 180°
They are supplementary angles.
(iv) 130° (+) 50° = 180°
They are supplementary angles.
(v) 45° (+) 45° = 90°
They are complementary angles.
(vi) 80° (+) 10° = 90°
They are complementary angles.

Q.4 Find the angle which equal to its complement.

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

Let the required angle be x°.
its complement = (90 – x)°
According to question,
x= 90 – x Or, x + x = 90 Or, 2x = 90 Or, x = 90/2 = 45° Thus the required angles are 45°.

Q.5 Find the angle which is equal to its supplement.

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

Let the required angle be x°.
So, it supplement = (180 – x)°
Now, x = 180 – x
Or, x + x = 180
Or, 2x = 180°
Or x=180°/2=90°
Thus, the required angle is 90°.

Q.6 In the given figure, $\mathrm{?}$ 1 and $\mathrm{?}$2 are supplementary angles.
If $\mathrm{?}$ 1 is decreased, what changes should take place in $\mathrm{?}$ 2 so that both the angles still remain

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

$\mathrm{?}$ 1 + $\mathrm{?}$2 = 180° (given)
If $\mathrm{?}$ 1 is decreased by some degrees, then angle 2 will also be increased by the same degree so that the two angles still remain supplementary.

Q.7 Can two angles be supplementary if both of them are:
(i) acute?
(ii) obtuse?
(iii) right?

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

(i) No, If two angles are acute, means less than 90°, the two angles cannot be supplementary. Because, their sum will be always less than 180° .
(ii) No. If two angles are obtuse, means more than 90°, the two angles cannot be supplementary. Because, their sum will be always more than 180°.
(iii) Yes. If two angles are right, means both measures 90°, then two angles can form a supplementary pair.
90° + 90° = 180°

Q.8 An angle is greater than 45°. Is its complementary angle greater than 45° or equal to 45° or less than 45 °?

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

Given angle is greater than 45°
Let the given angle be x°.
So, x > 45
Complement of x° = 90° – x° < 45° [ because x > 45°]
Thus the required angle is less than 45°.

[ because OC and OE do not lie on either side of common arm OA] .
(iii) Yes, $\mathrm{?}$ COE and $\mathrm{?}$ EOD form a linear pair of angles.

Q.12 Find the values of the angles x, y and z in each of the following:
(i) (ii)

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 5 Lines And Angles

From Fig. 1. we have
$\mathrm{?}$x = 55° (Vertically opposite angles)
$\mathrm{?}$ x + $\mathrm{?}$ y = 180° (Adjacent angles)
55° + $\mathrm{?}$ y = 180° (Linear pair angles)
So, $\mathrm{?}$ y = 180° – 55° = 125°
$\mathrm{?}$ y = $\mathrm{?}$ z (Vertically opposite angles)
$\mathrm{?}$ z = 125 °
Hence, $\mathrm{?}$ x = 55°, $\mathrm{?}$ y = 125° and $\mathrm{?}$ z = 125°
From Fig. ii . we have
25° + x + 40° = 180° (Sum of adjacent angles on straight line)
65° + x = 180°
So, x = 180° – 65° = 115°
40° + y = 180° (Linear pairs)
So, y = 180° – 40° = 140°
y + z = 180° (Linear pairs)
140° + z = 180°
So, z = 180° – 140° = 40°
Hence, x – 115°, y = 140° and z – 40°
