                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum As per the given in question , we draw a figure triangle ABC  
 ∠B + ∠C = 60° + 40° = 100°
 ∴ ∠A = 180° – 100° = 80°
 ∴ ∠BAD = 40°
 In ∆ ABE,
 ∠AEB = 90°Correct Option: BAs per the given in question , we draw a figure triangle ABC  
 ∠B + ∠C = 60° + 40° = 100°
 ∴ ∠A = 180° – 100° = 80°
 ∴ ∠BAD = 40°
 In ∆ ABE,
 ∠AEB = 90°
 ∴ ∠BAE = 180° – 90° – 60° = 30°
 ∴ ∠EAD = ∠BAD – ∠BAE = 40° – 30° = 10°

 Exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of remaining two interior angles.
 From triangle ,

 Correct Option: BWe draw a figure triangle ABC whose the side BC is produced to D ,  
 Exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of remaining two interior angles.
 From triangle ,
 ∴ ∠A + ∠B = ∠ACD = 112°Given , ∠B = 3 ∠A 4 ⇒ 4 ∠B + ∠B = 112° 3 ⇒ 4 ∠B + 3 ∠B = 112° 3 ⇒ 7∠B = 112° 3 ⇒ ∠B = 112 × 3 = 48° 7

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Given that , ∠A + ∠C = 140° and ∠A + ∠B = 180° 
 In a ∆ ABC,
 We know that , ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
 ⇒ ∠B + 140° = 180°
 ⇒ ∠B = 180° – 140° = 40°
 ∴ ∠A + 3 ∠B = 180°Correct Option: CGiven that , ∠A + ∠C = 140° and ∠A + ∠B = 180° 
 In a ∆ ABC,
 We know that , ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
 ⇒ ∠B + 140° = 180°
 ⇒ ∠B = 180° – 140° = 40°
 ∴ ∠A + 3 ∠B = 180°
 ⇒ ∠A + 3 × 40° = 180°
 ⇒ ∠A = 180° – 120° = 60°.
-  Which of the set of three sides can’t form a triangle?

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum According to question , 
 We know that the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.
 We have , the set of three sides are 5 cm, 8 cm, 15 cm .Correct Option: BAccording to question , 
 We know that the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.
 We have , the set of three sides are 5 cm, 8 cm, 15 cm .
 ∴ (5 + 8) < 15
 (5 + 15) > 8
 (15 + 8) > 5
