Question

Find the values of x, y and z.
 

hintHint:

Two congruent triangles have the same size and shape ,the corresponding angles (or) sides are congruent (equal) .Using congruence find value of x . Find value of y using sum of angles on straight line.Find the value of z by using the sum of angles in the triangle as 180 to the power of ring operator text .  end text

The correct answer is: x = 30 ;y = 100 and z = 100


    Step 1:- Find congruence of triangles
    Given ,LM = QP(given in diagram)
    MP = PR(given in diagram)
    PL = RQ(given in diagram)
    By SSS rule,
    We get ΔLMP ≅ ΔQPR
    Step 2:- Using congruence find value of x
    The angles in similar triangles are equal then We get ,

    ∠MPL = ∠PRQ  50° = ∠PRQ

    ∠LMP = ∠QPR  30° = x°  x = 30 (values of both angles are given in diagram )
    Step 3:- Find value of y using sum of angles on straight line
    We know sum of angles on a straight line is 180°
    So, ∠LPM +∠LPQ  +∠QPR  = 180° (substitute values given in diagram)

    x + y + 50 = 180 (substitute x =30)

    y + 80 =180 rightwards double arrow y= 100
    Step 4:-Find the value of z by using the sum of angles in the triangle as 180°.

     ∠QPR +∠PQR  +∠PRQ  = 180°

      x + z +∠PRQ  = 180°
    We get 50° = ∠PRQ ,and x = 30 in step 2

    30 + z +50  = 180°

    z = 100
    ∴ x = 30 ,y = 100 and z = 100

    Instead of using the quadratic formula, we could also use middle term factorization to solve the quadratic equation x squared minus 5 x plus 6 equals 0
    in the following way:
    x squared minus 5 x plus 6 equals 0
