Answer to Problem 34RP

The magnitude of the required angle is 32° , i.e., mMOE=32°

Explanation of Solution

Given information :

  OP bisects MOEmMOP=103xmPOE=x26x

Formula used :

Angle bisector divides the angle in two equal part

Negative value of angles are ignored

Calculation :

  Since, OP bisects MOEMOP=POE.......(as per definition)........(i)It is given thatmMOP=103x and mPOE=x26x

  On substituting values of MOP and POE in(i),we get103x =x26xx23x10=0x25x+2x10=0x(x5)+2(x5)=0(x5)(x+2)=0x=5 or x =2

  Now, for x = 5, we havemMOP=103x= 103×5=1015=5  (not possible, as magnitude of angle can not be negative)and mPOE=x26x=526×5=2530=5  (not possible, as magnitude of angle can not be negative)x = 5, will be ignored

  Now, for x = 2, we havemMOP=103x= 103×(2)=10+6=16  and mPOE=x26×(2)=(2)2+12=4+12=16MOE=MOP+POEMOE=16+16=32°
