Understanding Shapes Exercise 16A – Selina Concise Mathematics Class 8 ICSE Solutions

Question 1.
State which of the following are polygons :
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 8 ICSE Solutions Chapter 16 Understanding Shapes image - 1
If the given figure is a polygon, name it as convex or concave.
Solution:
Only Fig. (ii), (iii) and (v) are polygons.
Fig. (ii) and (iii) are concave polygons while
Fig. (v) is convex.

Question 2.
Calculate the sum of angles of a polygon with :
(i) 10 sides
(ii) 12 sides
(iii) 20 sides
(iv) 25 sides
Solution:
(i) No. of sides n = 10
sum of angles of polygon = (n – 2) x 180°
= (10 – 2) x 180° = 1440°
(ii) no. of sides n = 12
sum of angles = (n – 2) x 180°
= (12 – 2) x 180° = 10 x 180° = 1800°
(iii) n = 20
Sum of angles of Polygon = (n – 2) x 180°
= (20 – 2) x 180° = 3240°
(iv) n = 25
Sum of angles of polygon = (n – 2) x 180°
= (25 – 2) x 180° = 4140°

Question 3.
Find the number of sides in a polygon if the sum of its interior angles is :
(i) 900°
(ii) 1620°
(iii) 16 right-angles
(iv) 32 right-angles.
Solution:
(i) Let no. of sides = n
Sum of angles of polygon = 900°
(n – 2) x 180° = 900°
n – 2 = \(\frac { 900 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = 5
n = 5 + 2
n = 7
(ii) Let no. of sides = n
Sum of angles of polygon = 1620°
(n – 2) x 180° = 1620°
n – 2 = \(\frac { 1620 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = 9
n = 9 + 2
n = 11
(iii) Let no. of sides = n
Sum of angles of polygon = 16 right angles = 16 x 90 = 1440°
(n – 2) x 180° = 1440°
n – 2 = \(\frac { 1440 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = 8
n = 8 + 2
n = 10
(iv) Let no. of sides = n
Sum of angles of polygon = 32 right angles = 32 x 90 = 2880°
(n – 2) x 180° = 2880
n – 2 = \(\frac { 2880 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = 16
n = 16 + 2
n = 18

Question 4.
Is it possible to have a polygon ; whose sum of interior angles is :
(i) 870°
(ii) 2340°
(iii) 7 right-angles
(iv) 4500°
Solution:
(i) Let no. of sides = n
Sum of angles = 870°
(n – 2) x 180° = 870°
n – 2 = \(\frac { 870 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = \(\frac { 29 }{ 6 }\)
n = \(\frac { 29 }{ 6 }\) + 2
n = \(\frac { 41 }{ 6 }\)
Which is not a whole number.
Hence it is not possible to have a polygon, the sum of whose interior angles is 870°
(ii) Let no. of sides = n
Sum of angles = 2340°
(n – 2) x 180° = 2340°
n – 2 = \(\frac { 2340 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = 13
n = 13 + 2 = 15
Which is a whole number.
Hence it is possible to have a polygon, the sum of whose interior angles is 2340°.
(iii) Let no. of sides = n
Sum of angles = 7 right angles = 7 x 90 = 630°
(n – 2) x 180° = 630°
n – 2 = \(\frac { 630 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = \(\frac { 7 }{ 2 }\)
n = \(\frac { 7 }{ 2 }\) + 2
n = \(\frac { 11 }{ 2 }\)
Which is not a whole number. Hence it is not possible to have a polygon, the sum of whose interior angles is 7 right-angles.
(iv) Let no. of sides = n
(n – 2) x 180° = 4500°
n – 2 = \(\frac { 4500 }{ 180 }\)
n – 2 = 25
n = 25 + 2
n = 27
Which is a whole number.
Hence it is possible to have a polygon, the sum of whose interior angles is 4500°.

Solution:
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 8 ICSE Solutions Chapter 16 Understanding Shapes image - 45
(i) In Quadrilateral ABCD,

12x = 360° – 48°
12x = 312

Question 7.
Given : In quadrilateral ABCD ; ∠C = 64°, ∠D = ∠C – 8° ; ∠A = 5(a+2)° and ∠B = 2(2a+7)°.
Calculate ∠A.
Solution:
∠C = 64° (Given)
∠D = ∠C – 8° = 64°- 8° = 56°
∠A = 5(a+2)°
∠B = 2(2a+7)°
Now ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°
5(a+2)° + 2(2a+7)° + 64° + 56° = 360°
5a + 10 + 4a + 14° + 64° + 56° = 360°
9a + 144° = 360°
9a = 360° – 144°
9a = 216°
a = 24°
∠A = 5 (a + 2) = 5(24+2) = 130°

Question 8.
In the given figure : ∠b = 2a + 15 and ∠c = 3a + 5; find the values of b and c.
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 8 ICSE Solutions Chapter 16 Understanding Shapes image - 46
Solution:
Stun of angles of quadrilateral = 360°
70° + a + 2a + 15 + 3a + 5 = 360°
6a + 90° = 360°
6a = 270°
a = 45°
b = 2a + 15 = 2 x 45 + 15 = 105°
c = 3a + 5 = 3 x 45 + 5 = 140°
Hence ∠b and ∠c are 105° and 140°

Selina Concise Mathematics Class 8 ICSE Solutions Chapter 16 Understanding Shapes image - 49
Solution:
Take A, B, C, D as the vertices of Quadrilateral and BA is produced to E (say).
Since ∠EAD = 70°
∠DAB = 180° – 70°= 110°
[EAB is a straight line and AD stands on it ∠EAD+ ∠DAB = 180°]
110° + 80° + 56° + 3x – 6° = 360°
[sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360°]
3x = 360° – 110° – 80° – 56° + 6°
3x = 360° – 240° = 120°
x = 40°

Question 12.

Selina Concise Mathematics Class 8 ICSE Solutions Chapter 16 Understanding Shapes image - 50
Solution:
Let ∠A = 4x
∠D = 5x
Since ∠A + ∠D = 180° [AB||DC]
4x + 5x = 180°
=> 9x = 180°
=> x = 20°
∠A = 4 (20) = 80°,
∠D = 5 (20) = 100°
Again ∠B + ∠C = 180° [ AB||DC]
3x – 15° + 4x + 20° = 180°
7x = 180° – 5°
=> 7x = 175°
=> x = 25°
∠B = 75° – 15° = 60°
and ∠C = 4 (25) + 20 = 100°+ 20°= 120°

=> y = 360° – 230° = 130°
At vertex A,
∠y + ∠x = 180° (Linear pair)
x = 180° – 130°
=> x = 50°

Given : ABCDE is a regular pentagon.
The bisector ∠A of the pentagon meets the side CD at point M.
To prove : ∠AMC = 90°
Proof: We know that, the measure of each interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108°.
∠BAM = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) x 108° = 54°
Since, we know that the sum of a quadrilateral is 360°
In quadrilateral ABCM, we have
∠BAM + ∠ABC + ∠BCM + ∠AMC = 360°
54° + 108° + 108° + ∠AMC = 360°
∠AMC = 360° – 270°
∠AMC = 90°

∠1 = ∠4 and ∠3 = ∠5 ……..(i)
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 8 ICSE Solutions Chapter 16 Understanding Shapes image - 54
To prove : ∠AOB = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (∠C + ∠D)
Proof: In quadrilateral ABCD
∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°
\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D) = 180° …………(ii)
Now in ∆AOB
∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180° ………(iii)
Equating equation (ii) and equation (iii), we get
∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = ∠A + ∠B + \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (∠C + ∠D)
∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = ∠1 + ∠3 + \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (∠C + ∠D)
∠2 = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (∠C + ∠D)
∠AOB = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (∠C + ∠D)
Hence proved.
