OSM LessonWS 4A02 2.1 Lite Sol e

This document contains worked solutions to lesson worksheets on calculating the slopes and inclinations of straight lines. Various angles are given and students must calculate slopes using trigonometric functions like tangent. Steps shown include identifying angles in triangles formed by lines and using properties of vertical angles and angle sums to determine missing angles, then taking the tangent of these angles to find the corresponding slopes.

Challenging Question
(a) With the notations in the figure, y
a = 48° (vert. opp. Ðs) L1 L2

a + b + 92° = 180° (Ð sum of △) c x


92 b O
b = 180°  92°  48°
