Step-by-step solution for: Identifying Unknown Angles Worksheets | Geometry
Let's solve each of the problems on the worksheet step by step. The goal is to identify the unknown angles using basic geometry principles such as:
- Straight line = 180°
- Right angle = 90°
- Angles around a point = 360°
- Supplementary angles add up to 180°
- Complementary angles add up to 90°
---
We are given:
- A right angle at O between Y and Z → ∠YOZ = 90°
- X–O–Y is a straight line → 180°
So, ∠XOZ is the angle from X to Z.
Since ∠YOZ = 90°, and X–O–Y is a straight line, then:
- ∠XOZ = 180° – ∠YOZ = 180° – 90° = 90°
✔ ∠XOZ = 90°
---
Given:
- ∠POQ = 105° (angle between p and q)
- Ray OR is drawn upward from point O
- We need ∠ROQ (from R to Q)
But we are not told if this is a straight line or if there’s more context. However, since the angle shown is 105° between p and r, and p–o–q is a straight line (180°), then:
- ∠ROQ = 180° – 105° = 75°
✔ ∠ROQ = 75°
---
Given:
- Point C lies on line ab
- CD makes a 60° angle with cb
- So ∠DCB = 60°
We want ∠ACD — the angle between AC and CD.
Since ab is a straight line: ∠ACB = 180°
Then:
- ∠ACD = 180° – ∠DCB = 180° – 60° = 120°
✔ ∠ACD = 120°
---
Given:
- Line ab, point C
- CD makes 30° with cb → ∠DCB = 30°
- Want ∠ACD
Again, ab is straight → ∠ACB = 180°
So:
- ∠ACD = 180° – 30° = 150°
✔ ∠ACD = 150°
---
Given:
- Line XY, point Q
- Angle between XQ and PQ is 135°
- We are to find ∠XQP → that is the angle between X and P at Q
Wait — but it's already labeled as 135°? Let's clarify.
Actually, the diagram shows a ray QP forming a 135° angle with QX.
So ∠XQP is the angle at Q between X and P → which is 135°
But wait — let’s confirm: Is it asking for the same angle?
Yes, ∠XQP is the angle formed by rays QX and QP → and it's marked as 135°
✔ ∠XQP = 135°
(No calculation needed; it's directly given.)
---
Given:
- Line pq, point T
- Ray TS forms 120° with TQ
- So ∠QT S = 120°
- Want ∠PTS → angle between PT and ST
But pt is in the opposite direction of qt.
So, ∠PTQ = 180° (straight line), and ∠QTS = 120°
Then:
- ∠PTS = 180° – 120° = 60°
✔ ∠PTS = 60°
---
Given:
- Line ab, point Y
- Ray YX forms 15° with Ya
- So ∠AYX = 15°
- Want ∠XYB → angle between X and B at Y
Since ab is straight → ∠AYB = 180°
Then:
- ∠XYB = 180° – ∠AYX = 180° – 15° = 165°
✔ ∠XYB = 165°
---
Given:
- Line pq, point O
- Ray OS forms 100° with OP
- So ∠POS = 100°
- Want ∠SOQ → angle between SO and OQ
Since pq is straight → ∠POQ = 180°
So:
- ∠SOQ = 180° – 100° = 80°
✔ ∠SOQ = 80°

We are given:
- A right angle at O between Y and Z → ∠YOZ = 90°
- X–O–Y is a straight line → 180°
So, ∠XOZ is the angle from X to Z.
Since ∠YOZ = 90°, and X–O–Y is a straight line, then:
- ∠XOZ = 180° – ∠YOZ = 180° – 90° = 90°
✔ ∠XOZ = 90°
