Solution:

AD – CD = BC – CD [Axiom 3]
AC = DB [In the fig AC – CD = AC , BC – CD = DB]

Question 6.
Let $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{A B}}$ and $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{A B}}$ be two straight lines intersecting at O. Let $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{O X}}$ be the bisector of ∠BOD. Draw $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{O Y}}$ between $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{O D}}$ and $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{O A}}$ such that $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{O Y}}$$\overrightarrow{\mathbf{O B}}$ prove that $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{O Y}}$ bisects ∠DOA .

Proof : ∠AOZ = ∠BOX [vertically opposite angles]
∠BOX = ∠POX [$\overrightarrow{\mathbf{OX}}$ bisects ∠DOB]
∴ ∠AOZ = ∠DOX  [Axiom 1] … (i)
[ZOY = [YOX r=90°] … (ii)
(ii) – (i) ∠ZOY – ∠AOZ = ∠YOX – ∠DOX ∠AOY = ∠YOD [Axiom 3]

Suppose the bisector of ∠ALP intersect CD in R and the bisector of ∠PLB intersect CDin S prove that ∠LRS + ∠RSL = 90°

Solution:
∠ALP + ∠BLP = 180° ∠Linear pair]
$\frac{1}{2}$ ∠ALP + $\frac{1}{2}$ ∠BLP = $\frac{1}{2}$180°
[Multiplying by $\frac{1}{2}$ ]
∠ELP + ∠FLP = 90° [∴ $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{E L}}$ and $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{F L}}$ are bisectors of ∠ALP and ∠BLP ]
∠ELF = 90°
[SLR = ∠ELF = 90°
[vertically opposite angles]
In ∆ SLR, ∠SLR + ∠LRS + ∠RSL = 180° [sum of the angles of the triangle is 180° ]
90 + ∠LRS + ∠RSL = 180°
∠LRS + ∠SL = 180 – 90
∠LRS + [RSL = 90°

Question 8.

The transversals $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{PQ}}$ and $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{RS}}$ intersect at U on the line $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{AB}}$. Given ∠DWU = 110° and ∠CVP = 70° find the measure of ∠QUS.
Solution:

∠ AUV – ∠CVP = 70°
[corresponding angles]
∠QUB – ∠AUV = 70° [vertically opposite angles]
∠BUW + ∠DWU = 180° [Interior angles on the same side of transversal]
∠BUW + 110°= 180°
∠BUW = 180-110° = 70°
∠BUW = ∠AUS= 70° [vertically opposite angles]
∠AUS + ∠SUQ + ∠QUB = 180° ∠AUB is a straight angle]
70 + ∠SUQ + 70 = 180°
∠SUQ + 140° = 180°
∠SUQ = 180° – 140°
∠SUQ = 40°

Question 11.
Let $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{AB}}$ be a line segment and let C be the midpoint of $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{AB}}$ Extend AB to D such that B lies between A and D. Prove that AD + BD = 2CD
Solution:

= AC + CB + BD + BD [∵ AD = AC + CB + BD]
= CB + CB + BD + BD
[∴ AC = CB]
= CB + BD + CB + BD
= CD + CD
= 2CD = RHS
∴ AD + B D = 2CD

∠AOB = 180°
A, O and B are collinear.

Question 16.
In the adjoining figure $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{AB}}$ || $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{DE}}$ . Prove that ∠ABC – [DCB + [CDE = 180°
Solution:
Construction: Through C draw $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{XY}}$ || $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{AB}}$
Proof : ∠ABC + ∠BCX = 180° [sum of interior angles on the same side of trnasversal]
∴ ∠BCX = 180 – ∠ABC
∠CDE + ∠DCY – 180° [sum of interior angles on the same side of transversal]

∴ ∠DCY = 180° – ∠CDE
∠BCX + ∠BCD + ∠DCY = 180° [∵ XCY is straight angle]
180 – ∠ABC + ∠BCD + 180 – ∠CDE = 180° [By substituting]
360 – ∠ABC + ∠BCD – ∠CDE – 180°
360 – 180 – ∠ABC – ∠BCD + CDE
180° = ∠ABC – ∠BCD + ∠CDE
or
∠ABC – ∠BCD + ∠CDE = 180°
