Question: In the given figure, AOB is a straight line. If $ \angle AOC=40{}^\circ , $ $ \angle COD=4x{}^\circ $ and $ \angle BOD=3x{}^\circ , $ then $ \angle COD $ is equal to

Options:

A) $ 80{}^\circ $

B) $ 100{}^\circ $

C) $ 120{}^\circ $

D) $ 140{}^\circ $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

  • $ 4x+3x+40=180 $
    $ \Rightarrow , $ $ 7x=180-40 $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ 7x=140\Rightarrow x=20{}^\circ $

$ \therefore $ $ 4x=80{}^\circ $ $ \angle COD=4x=4\times 20=80{}^\circ $
