 DE || BC ,∴ AD = AE AB AC AD = 3 ⇒ BD = 5 BD 5 AD 3 ⇒ BD + 1 = 5 + 1 AD 3 ⇒ BD + AD = 5 + 3 AD 3 ⇒ AB = 8 AD 3 ⇒ AD = 3 AB 8 
 Correct Option: AAs per the given in question , we draw a figure of triangle ABC in which D and E are on the sides AB and AC, such that, DE is parallel to BC ,  
 DE || BC ,∴ AD = AE AB AC AD = 3 ⇒ BD = 5 BD 5 AD 3 ⇒ BD + 1 = 5 + 1 AD 3 ⇒ BD + AD = 5 + 3 AD 3 ⇒ AB = 8 AD 3 ⇒ AD = 3 AB 8 ∴ AD = AE AB AC ⇒ 3 = AE ⇒ AE = 3 × 4 8 4 8 
 AE = 1.5 cm.

 ∴ 2∠A = 3∠B = 6∠C⇒ 2∠A = 3∠B = 6∠C 6 6 6 ⇒ ∠A = ∠B = ∠C 3 2 1 
 ⇒ ∠A : ∠B : ∠C = 3 : 2 : 1∴ ∠B =  2  × 180° 1 + 2 + 3 
 Correct Option: AAs per the given in question, 
 ∴ 2∠A = 3∠B = 6∠C⇒ 2∠A = 3∠B = 6∠C 6 6 6 ⇒ ∠A = ∠B = ∠C 3 2 1 
 ⇒ ∠A : ∠B : ∠C = 3 : 2 : 1∴ ∠B =  2  × 180° 1 + 2 + 3 ∠B = 2 × 180° = 60° 6 
-  In a ∆ABC, ∠A + ∠B = 70° and ∠B + ∠C = 130°, value of ∠A is

 As we know that , ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
 Given , ∠A + ∠B = 70° and ∠B + ∠C = 130°Correct Option: BIn ∆ ABC, 
 As we know that , ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
 Given , ∠A + ∠B = 70° and ∠B + ∠C = 130°
 ∴ ∠A = (∠A + ∠B + ∠C) – (∠B + ∠C)
 ∠A = 180– 130°= 50°

 ∠BPC = 120°
 ∴ ∠PBC + ∠PCB = 180°– 120°= 60°Correct Option: DAs per the given in question , we draw a figure of triangle ABC  
 ∠BPC = 120°
 ∴ ∠PBC + ∠PCB = 180°– 120°= 60°
 ∴ ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 2 × 60° = 120°
 ∴ ∠A = 180 – 120 = 60°
