1.5 = B √√ [10]
QUESTION 2
2.1.1 x = 62°….opp sides opp angles are = S
R
y + 62° + 62° = 180°…..sum of angles on a ∆ S
y = 56° R
Answer
2.1.2 x + 4x + 2x + 40° = 180°.… sum of angles on a ∆ S
X = 28° R
Answer
2.1.3 x + 90° + 40° = 180° ….sum of angles on a ∆ S
X = 50° R
Answer
Y = 50°….alt angles
S
R

QUESTION 3
3.1 x + 30° = 60° ….vert opp angles S
X = 30° R
Answer
3.2 2x - 30° + 2x - 30° + 2x - 30° = 180° …..sum of angles on a triangle S
6x - 90° = 180° R
6x = 270° 6x
X = 45° Answer
3.3 x + 60° + 4x − 30° = 180° ….co-interior angles S
R
5x = 150°
5x or 150°
x = 30°
answer
