All questions of Quadrilaterals for Class 9 Exam

 Which of the following is not true for a parallelogram?    
  • a)
    Diagonals bisect each other
  • b)
    Opposite sides are equal
  • c)
    Opposite angles are equal
  • d)
    Opposite angles are bisected by the diagonals
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Imk Pathshala answered
The statement that opposite angles are bisected by the diagonals is not generally true. This property does not hold for every parallelogram; it only occurs in special cases such as a rectangle or a rhombus under certain conditions.
Thus, the option that is not always true for a parallelogram is:
Option D:  Opposite angles are bisected by the diagonals.

ABCD is a parallelogram in which the bisectors of angles ∠A and ∠B intersect at point P then ∠APB is
  • a)
    45°
  • b)
    90°
  • c)
    60°
  • d)
    80°
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Imk Pathshala answered
Since ABCD is a Parallelogram. Therefore,
AD || BC
AB is a transversal . Therefore ,

A + B = 180°. [ Consecutive interior angles]

Multiply both sides by 1/2 ,

1/2 A + 1/2 B = 1/2 (180°)
1/2 A + 1/2 B = 90° __【1】

Since, AP and PB are angle bisectors of A and B . Therefore,

Angle 1 = 1/2 A
Angle 2 = 1/2 B

Substitute the values in【1】,

Angle 1 + Angle 2 = 90°____【2】

Now, in ∆ APB,
1 + APB + 2 = 180°
90° + APB = 180°. [From 【2】]
APB = 90°
