Case study Questions
22. A group of students is studying the concepts of lines and angles. They encountered the
following scenario during their class:
Classroom has two parallel boards, Board A and Board B, on opposite walls. Two students,
Rahul and Riya, are standing in the classroom, facing the boards. Rahul is standing between
the two boards and looking at Board B, while Riya is standing near Board B and looking at
Board A. They observed the following:
1. Rahul and Riya are facing each other.
2. Rahul’s left hand is pointing towards the ceiling.
3. Riya’s right hand is pointing towards the floor.
Based on this information, the students were asked to analyze the angles formed by the hands
of Rahul and Riya.
a. The angle formed between Rahul’s left hand and his line of sight
b. The angle formed between Riya’s right hand and her line of sight
c. The angle between the hands of Rahul and Riya
d. The angle formed between Rahul’s left hand and Riya’s right hand
23. A math’s teacher was teaching students about intersecting lines.
Suppose AB and CD are two intersecting lines, which meets at point O. In this point O, she
draws a line OE and all these lines were making different angles with each other.
After explaining the description of the figure, she asked the following questions from the
students.
On the basis of the above information, solve the following questions.
1. Find the measure of ∠BOD.
2. Check whether pair of angles ∠AOC and ∠BOC makes a linear pair.
3. Find the measure of ∠BOE
4. Find the measure of ∠AOE.
