b) There are many correct methods, such as 6 buns have a mass of 450 g and 24 buns have a mass
of 1800 g, so the mass of 30 buns is 1800 + 450 = 2250 g.

The percentage of children passing the exam has not increased every year (as the percentage
went down between 2013 and 2014). However the trend is definitely increasing.
4 True. Increase for Manor High between 2013 and 2017 is 760 – 580 = 180

Chapter 32 Geometrical reasoning and proof

Proving angle rules
1 a = x because corresponding angles are equal

b = y because alternate angles are equal
The exterior angle at C is a + b = x + y.
So the exterior angle at C is the sum of the interior angles at A and B.
2 Angle EAC = 90 – a and angle DBC = 90 – b because each angle in a rectangle is equal to 90°.
Angle ACF = 90 – a because angles EAC and ACF are alternate angles.
Angle BCF = 90 – b because angles DBC and BCF are alternate angles.
So angle ACB = 90 – a + 90 – b = 180 – a – b.
So, c = 180 – a – b and therefore a + b + c = 180°.
3 The angle in a triangle add up to 180°

So a + b + c 180°
and d + e + f = 180°
So a + b + c + d + e + f = 360°
a + (b + d) + e + (c + f) = 360°
So all four angles in the quadrilateral add up to 360°

Solving geometrical problems
1 a = 41°. Alternate angles are equal.

b = 47° Corresponding angles are equal.
2 a)
x = 130°. The two base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal and properties of exterior
angle of a triangle.
b) x = 42°. The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles.
3 a = 53°. Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.
b = 100°. A kite has one equal pair of angles. Angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360°.
c = 124°. A parallelogram has a pair of parallel sides so interior angles add up to 180°.
4 t = 124°. Angle DEC = 63° as corresponding angles are equal. Angle t = 61 + 63 as the exterior
angle of a triangle is the sum of the two opposite interior angles.
5 x = 54 y = 46
6 x = 48°
7 For example…
x = 35° because alternate angles are equal.

y = 40° because angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees and then alternate angles (or vertically
opposite angles).
z = 70° because angles on a straight line add up to 180°
8 a = 122°
