In the below figure, ACB is a line such that ∠DCA = 5x and ∠DCB = 4x. Find the value of x?

Question:

In the below figure, ACB is a line such that ∠DCA = 5x and ∠DCB = 4x. Find the value of x?

Solution:

Here, ∠ACD + ∠BCD = 180°

[Since they are linear pairs]

∠DCA = 5x and ∠DCB = 4x

5x + 4x = 180

9x = 180

x = 20

Hence, the value of x is 20°
