NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6  View Answer

Ans: (b)
We know that, measure of complete angle of clock is 360º.
NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6

From the figure, we can say that angle at 2 = (9/12) × 360º= 270º
Then, angle at 1= 360º – 270º
= 90º
Therefore, measures of the two angles between hour and minute hands of a clock at 9 O’ clock are 270º and 90º.

NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6

Obtuse angle is defined as an angle formed is greater than 90o and less than 180o.
From the above figure,
Angle are, ∠ROP = ∠ROQ + ∠QOP
= 65º + 30º
= 95º
∠SOP = ∠ROQ + ∠QOP + ∠SOR
= 65º + 30º + 45º
= 140º
∠SOQ = ∠SOR + ∠ROQ
= 45º + 65º
= 110º
∠TOQ = ∠TOS + ∠SOR + ∠ROQ
= 20º+ 45º+ 65º
= 130º
Therefore, number of obtuse angle formed are 4.

Place the mid-point of the protractor on the Vertex of the angle. Line up one side of the angle with the Zero line of the protractor (where you see the number 0).
Read the degrees here the other side crosses the number scale.
1. Measure the angles.

NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6

(b) BD bisects ∠ABC.

NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6(c) DC is the bisector of ∠ADB, CA ⊥ DA and CB ⊥ DB

NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6

NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6  View Answer

(a) ∵ DB is the bisector of ∠ADC.
∴ ∠ADB = ∠CDB
(b) ∵ BD bisects ∠ABC.
∴ ∠ABD = ∠CBD
(c) ∵ DC is the bisector of ∠ADB, CA ⊥ DA and CB ⊥ DB
∠ADC = ∠BDC, ∠CAD = ∠CBD = 90°

Q64: An angle is said to be trisected, if it is divided into three equal parts. If in a given figure, ∠BAC = ∠CAD = ∠DAE, how many trisectors are there for ∠BAE ?
NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6

Q74: Can we have two acute angles whose sum is
(a) an acute angle? Why or why not?
(b) a right angle? Why or why not?
(c) an obtuse angle? Why or why not?
(d) a straight angle? Why or why not?
(e) a reflex angle? Why or why not?

NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6  View Answer

(a) Yes, ∵ the sum of two acute angles can be the acute angle.
E.g., 30° and 40° are two acute angles and their sum = 30° + 40° = 70°, which is also an acute angle.
(b) Yes, ∵ the sum of two acute angles can be a right angle.
E.g., 30° and 60° are two acute angles and their sum = 30° + 60° = 90°, which is a right angle.
(c) Yes, ∵ the sum of two acute angles can be an obtuse angle.
E.g., 45° and 60° are two acute angles and their sum = 45° + 60° = 105°, which is an obtuse angle.
(d) No, ∵ the sum of two acute angles is always less than 180°.
(e) No, ∵ the sum of two acute angles is always less than 180°.

Q75: Can we have two obtuse angles whose sum is
(a) a reflex angle? Why or why not?
(b) a complete angle? Why or why not?

NCERT Exemplar Solutions: Geometry | Mathematics (Maths) Class 6  View Answer

(a) Yes, ∵ the sum of two obtuse angles is always greater than 180°.E.g., 135° and 100° are two obtuse angles and their sum = 135° + 
100° = 235°, which is greater than 180°.
(b) No, ∵ the sum of two obtuse angles is greater than 180° but less than 360°. In the above example, we can see that the sum of 135° and 100° i.e., 235° is greater than 180° but less than 360°.
