Lines and Angles

NCERT Exercise Exercise 6.2

In Fig. 6.28, find the values of x and y and then show that AB || CD.

x + 50° = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ x = 130°
also,
y = 130° (Vertically opposite) 
Now,
x = y = 130° (Alternate interior angles)
Alternate interior angles are equal.
Therefore, AB || CD.
