Take a regular hexagon Fig 3.10.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals InText Questions 1

Question 1.
What is the sum of the measures of its exterior angles x, y, z, p, q r?
Solution:
∠x + ∠y + ∠z + ∠p + ∠q + ∠r = 360°
(∵ Sum of exterior angles of a polygon = 360°)

Question 2.
Is x = y = z = p = q = r ? Why?
Solution:
Since, all the sides of the polygon are equal, it is a regular hexagon. So its interior angles are equal.
∴ x = (180° – a), y = (180° – a),
z = (180° – a), p = (180° – a),
q = (180° – a), r = (180° – a)
∴ x = y = z = p = q = r

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals InText Questions

Question 3.
What is the measure of each ?
(i) exterior angle
(ii) interior angle
Solution:
(i) x + y + z + p + q + r = 360°
(∵ Sum of exterior angles = 360°)
All angles are equal.
∴ Measure of each exterior angle = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{6}\) = 60°

(ii) Exterior angle = 60°
∴ Interior angle = 180° – 60° = 120°.

Question 4.
Repeat this activity for the cases of:
(i) a regular octagon
(ii) a regular 20-gon
Solution:
(i) In a regular octagon, number of sides (n) = 8.
∴ Each exterior angle = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{8}\) = 45°
∴ Each interior angle = 180° – 45° = 135°

(ii) For a regular 20-gon, the number of sides (n) = 20.
∴ Each exterior angle = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{20}\) = 18°
∴ Each interior angle = 180° – 18° = 162°

□ ABCD is a parallelogram.
∴ ZB = ZD
∴ y = 100°
(∵ Opposite angles)
Now, y + z = 180° (∵ Adjacent singles are supplementary)
∴ 100° + z = 180°
∴ z = 180° – 100°
∴ z = 80°
Now, x = z (∵ Opposite angles)
∴ x = 80°
Thus, x = 80°, y = 100° and z = 80°.

(ii)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.3 3
Solution:
It is a parallelogram.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.3 4
∴ m∠P + m∠S = 180°
(∵ Adjacent angles are supplementary)
∴ x + 50° = 180°
∴ x = 180° – 50°
∴ x = 130°
x = y (∵ Opposite angles)
∴ y = 130°
Now, m∠Q = 50° (∵ ∠S and ∠Q are opposite angles)
m∠Q + z = 180° (∵ Linear pair of angles)
∴ 50° + z = 180°
∴ z = 180° – 50°
∴ z = 130°
Thus, x = 130°, y = 130° and z = 130°.

∴ x = 180° – 80°
∴ x = 100°
m∠A = m∠BCD (∵ Opposite angles are equal)
∴ 100° = m∠BCD
Now, z + m∠BCD = 180° (∵ Linear pair of angles)
∴ z + 100° = 180°
∴ z = 180° – 100°
∴ z = 80°
Thus, x = 100°, y = 80° and z = 80°

∴ 40° + z + 112° = 180°
∴ z + 152° = 180°
∴ z = 180° – 152°
∴ z = 28°
Now, \(\overline{\mathrm{DC}} \| \overline{\mathrm{AB}}\), \(\overleftrightarrow{\mathrm{AC}}\) is their transversal.
∴ z = x
∴ x = 28° (∵ z = 28°)
Thus, x = 28°, y = 112° and z = 28°

Solution:
In a quadrilateral ABDC,
AB = DC = 8 cm
AD = 4 cm
BC = 4.4 cm

Question 5.
The measures of two adjacent angles of a parallelogram are in the ratio 3 : 2. Find the measure of each of the angles of the parallelogram.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a parallelogram in which adjacent angles ∠A and ∠B are 3x and 2x respectively.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.3 12
Adjacent angles are supplementary.
∴ m∠A + m∠B = 180°
∴ 3x + 2x – 180°
∴ 5x = 180°
∴ \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{5}\)
∴ m∠A = 3x = 3 × 36° = 108°
m∠B = 2x = 2 × 36° = 72°
Now, m∠A = m∠C and m∠B = m∠D (∵ Opposite angles)
∴ m∠C = 108° and m∠D = 72°
Thus, ∠A = 108°, ∠B = 72°, ∠C = 108° and ∠D = 72°.

Question 6.
Two adjacent angles of a parallelogram have equal measure. Find the measure of each of the angles of the parallelogram.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a parallelogram such that adjacent angles ∠A = ∠B.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.3 13
∴ m∠A + m∠B = 180°
(∵ Adjacent angles are supplementary)
∴ m∠A + m∠A = 180° (m∠B = m∠A)
∴ 2m∠A = 180°
∴ m∠A = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{2}\) = 90°
∴ m∠B = 90°
Now, m∠A = m∠C and m∠B = m∠D (∵ Opposite angles)
∴ m∠C = 90° and m∠D = 90°
Thus, ∠A = 90°, ∠B = 90°, ∠C = 90° and ∠D = 90°.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.3 14
Solution:
∠POA is the exterior angle of ΔHOE
∴ y + z = 70° (Exterior)
∴ m∠HOP = 180° – 70° = 110°
∠HEP = ∠HOP = 110° (Opposite angles of a parallelogram)
∴ x = 110°
∵ \(\overline{\mathrm{EH}} \| \overline{\mathrm{PO}}\), \(\overleftrightarrow{\mathrm{PH}}\) is a transversal.
∴ y = 40° (∵ Alternate angles are equal)
Now, y + z = 70°
∴ 40° + z = 70°
∴ z = 70° – 40° = 30°
Thus, x = 110°, y = 40° and z = 30°

Question 8.
The following figures GUNS and RUNS are parallelograms. Find x and y. (Lengths are in cm)
(i)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.3 15
Solution :
□ GUNS is a parallelogram.
∴ GS = NU and SN = GU (Y Opposite sides)
∴ 3x = 18 and 26 = 3y – 1
∴ x = \(\frac {18}{3}\)
∴ x = 6

∴ 3y – 1 = 26
∴ 3y = 26 + 1
∴ 3y = 27
∴ y = \(\frac {27}{3}\) = 9
Thus, x = 6 cm and y = 9 cm

(ii)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.3 16
Solution:
□ RUNS is a parallelogram.
∴ Its diagonals bisect each other.
x + y = 16 ……(1)
and y + 7 = 20
y = 20 – 7 = 13 …..(2)
Substituting value of y in (1)
x + y = 16
x + 13 = 16
∴ x = 16 – 13
= 3
Thus, x = 3 cm and y = 13 cm

In the above figure both RISK and CLUE are parallelograms. Find the value of x.
Solution:
□ RISK is a parallelogram.
∴ m∠R + m∠K = 180°
(∵ Adjacent angles are supplementary)
∴ m∠R + 120° = 180°
∴ m∠R = 180° – 120°
∴ m∠R = 60°
∠R and ∠S are opposite angles of parallelogram.
∴ m∠S = 60°
□ CLUE is a parallelogram.
∴ m∠E = m∠L = 70° (∵ Opposite angles)
In ΔESQ
∴ m∠E + m∠S + x = 180° (∵ Angle sum property of triangle)
∴ 70° + 60° + x = 180°
∴ 130° + x = 180°
∴ x = 180° – 130°
∴ x = 50°
Thus, x = 50°

\(\overleftrightarrow{\mathrm{PQ}}\) is a transversal of \(\overline{\mathrm{SP}} \| \overline{\mathrm{RQ}}\)
m∠P + m∠Q = 180°
(∵ Interior angles on the same side of transversal are supplementary)
∴ mZP + 130° = 180°
∴ mZP = 180° – 130°
∴ mZP = 50°
In □ PQRS, ∠R = 90°
\(\overline{\mathrm{SP}} \| \overline{\mathrm{RQ}}\), \(\overleftrightarrow{\mathrm{RS}}\) is their transversal.
∴ m∠S + m∠R = 180°
∴ m∠S + 90° = 180°
∴ m∠S= 180°-90°
∴ m∠S = 90°
Yes, the sum of the measures of all angles of quadrilateral is 360°. ∠P and ∠R can be found.
m∠P + m∠Q + m∠R + m∠S = 360°
∴ m∠P + 130° + 90° + 90° = 360°
∴ m∠P + 310° = 360°
∴ m∠P = 360° – 310°
∴ m∠P = 50°

PSEB Solutions for Class 8 Maths Chapter 16 Playing with Numbers Ex 16.2

1. If 21y5 is a multiple of 9, where y is a digit, what is the value of y?
Solution:
21y5 is a multiple of 9 (given)
∴ Sum of digits of 21y5 = 2 + 1 + y + 5
= 8 + y
Therefore, (8 + y) should be 0, 9, 18, …, etc.
8 + y = 0 is not possible ∴ 8 + y = 9
∴ y = 9 – 8 = 1
Thus, the value of y is 1.

Verification:
21y5 = 2115 (∵ y = 1)
∴ Sum of digits of 2115 = 2 + 1 + 1 + 5 = 9 (9 ÷ 9 = 1, remainder = 0)
∴ 2115 is divisible by 9.
(Note: Here, verification is given to explain you.]

2. If 31z5 is a multiple of 9, where z is a digit, what is the value of z? You will find that there are two answers for the last problem. Why is this so?
Solution:
31z5 is a multiple of 9. (given)
∴ Sum of digits of 31z5 = 3 + 1 + z + 5
= z + 9
Therefore, (z + 9) should be 0, 9, 18, …, etc.
Since, z is a digit, it should be either 0 or 9.
Hence, z = 0 or 9.

Verification:
31z5 = 3105 (∵ z = 0)
∴ Sum of digits of 3105
= 3 + 1 + 0 + 5 = 9
(9 ÷ 9 = 1, remainder = 0)
∴ 3105 is divisible by 9.
31z5 = 3195 (∵ z = 9)
∴ Sum of digits of 3195
= 3 + 1 + 9 + 5 = 18
(18 ÷ 9 = 2, remainder = 0)
∴ 3195 is divisible by 9.

3. If 24x is a multiple of 3, where x is a digit, what is the value of x? (Since 24x is a multiple of 3, its sum of digits 6 + x is a multiple of 3; so 6 + x is one of these numbers: 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 …………. But since x is a digit, it can only be that 6 + x = 6 or 9 or 12 or 15. Therefore, x = 0 or 3 or 6 or 9. Thus, x can have any of four different values.)
Solution:
24x is a multiple of 3. (given)
∴ Sum of digits of 24x = 2 + 4 + x = 6 + x
Therefore, 6 + x should be 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, …, etc.
Since, 6 + x is a multiple of 3.
∴ 6 + x = 0, 6 + x = 3, 6 + x = 6, 6 + x = 9, 6 + x = 12, 6 + x = 15, 6 + x = 18, ……….
∴ x = -6, x = -3, x = 0, x = 3, x = 6, x = 9, x = 12, ……………..
Here, x = 0, 3, 6, 9 are possible.
Thus, the value of x can be 0 or 3 or 6 or 9.

4. If 31z5 is a multiple of 3, where z is a digit, what might be the values of z?
Solution:
31z5 is a multiple of 3. (given)
∴ 31z5 is divisible by 3.
Sum of digits of 31z5 = 3 + 1 + z + 5
= 9 + z
∴ 9 + z is divisible by 3.
∴ Value of 9 + z should be 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 or 18.
Since, z is a multiple of 3.
If 9 + z = 0,
∴ z = – 9 which is impossible.
9 + z = 3,
∴ z = – 6 which is impossible.
9 + z = 6,
∴ z = – 3 which is impossible.
9 + z = 9,
∴ z = 0 which is possible.
9 + z = 12,
∴ z = 3 which is possible.
9 + z = 15,
∴ z = 6 which is possible.
9 + z = 18,
∴ z = 9 which is possible.
9 + z = 21,
∴ z = 12 which is impossible.
Thus, the value of z can be 0 or 3 or 6 or 9.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.2

Question 2.
Find the measure of each exterior angle of a regular polygon of (i) 9 sides (ii) 15 sides
Solution:
(i) Number of sides (n) = 9
∴ Number of exterior angles = 9
The sum of all exterior angles = 360°.
The given polygon is a regular polygon.
∴ All the exterior angles are equal.
∴ Measure of an exterior angle = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{9}\).
= 40°

(ii) Number of sides of regular polygon = 15
∴ Number of exterior angles = 15
The sum of all the exterior angles = 360°
The given polygon is a regular polygon.
∴ All the exterior angles are equal.
∴ The measure of each exterior angle = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{15}\) = 24°

Question 3.
How many sides does a regular polygon have if the measure of an exterior angle is 24° ?
Solution:
Regular polygon is equiangular.
Sum of all the exterior angles = 360°
Measure of an exterior angle = 24°
∴ Number of sides = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{24^{\circ}}\)
The polygon has 15 sides.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.2

Question 4.
How many sides does a regular polygon have if each of its interior angles is 165° ?
Solution:
The given polygon is regular polygon.
Each interior angle = 165°
∴ Each exterior angle = 180° – 165° = 15°
∴ Number of sides = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{15^{\circ}}\) = 24
The polygon has 24 sides.

Question 5.
(a) Is it possible to have a regular polygon with measure of each exterior angle as 22° ?
Solution:
Each exterior angle = 22°
∴ Number of sides = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{22^{\circ}}=\frac{180^{\circ}}{11^{\circ}}\)
The number of sides of a regular polygon must be a whole number.
But, \(\frac {180}{11}\) is not a whole number.
∴ No, exterior angle of a regular polygon cannot be of measure 22°.

(b) Can it be an interior angle of a regular polygon ? Why ?
Solution:
If the measure of an interior angle of a polygon is 22°, then the measure of its exterior angle = 180° – 22° = 158°.
∴ Number of sides = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{158^{\circ}}=\frac{180^{\circ}}{79^{\circ}}\)
\(\frac {180}{79}\)is not a whole number.
∴ No, 22° cannot be an interior angle of a regular polygon.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Understanding Quadrilaterals Ex 3.2

Question 6.
(a) What is the minimum interior angle possible for a regular polygon? Why ?
Solution:
The minimum number of sides of a polygon = 3
The regular polygon of 3-sides is an equilateral triangle.
Each interior angle of an equilateral triangle = 60°.
Hence, the minimum possible interior angle of a polygon = 60°.

(b) What is the maximum exterior angle possible for a regular polygon ?
Solution:
The sum of an exterior angle and its corresponding interior angle is 180°. (Linear pair)
And minimum interior angle of a regular polygon = 60°.
∴ The maximum exterior angle of a regular polygon = 180° – 60° = 120°.

Units digit B × 6 = B, so B must be 2, 4, 6 or 8.
∴ Possible values of product BBB are 222, 444, 666 or 888.
If we divide these numbers by 6, then quotient should be A2, A4, A6 or A8.
Now, 222 ÷ 6 = 37, remainder = 0
But, the quotient is not as A2, so B = 2 is not possible.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 16 Playing with Numbers Ex 16.1 28
Thus, A = 7 and B = 4

Question 8.
