Key Concept: Properties of Squares and Rectangles

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a square bisect its angles, which is true as per the properties of a square. The reason states that a square has all sides equal and diagonals perpendicular to each other, which is also true. However, the reason does not explain why the diagonals of a square bisect its angles. The correct explanation would involve the fact that the diagonals of a square are angle bisectors due to the congruence of triangles formed by the diagonals and sides of the square. Thus, both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles

d) Diagonals intersect at $90^\circ$.
[Solution Description]
A rectangle has all angles equal to $90^\circ$, opposite sides equal and parallel, and diagonals that are equal and bisect each other. However, the diagonals do not necessarily bisect each other at $90^\circ$ in a rectangle (this is a property of a square).

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangle

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that in a rectangle, the diagonals are equal and bisect each other. This is true because it is one of the key properties of a rectangle as per the syllabus.
The reason claims that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other, then the quadrilateral must be a rectangle. While this is true for parallelograms (since rectangles are a type of parallelogram), it is not necessarily true for all quadrilaterals. For example, an isosceles trapezoid has equal diagonals but is not a rectangle. Hence, the reason is false.
Therefore, Assertion is true, but Reason is false.

Key Concept: Squares, Diagonals

c) $40$ cm
[Solution Description]
In a square, the length of the diagonal $d$ is related to the side length $s$ by the formula $d = s \sqrt{2}$. Given $d = 10\sqrt{2}$ cm, we can solve for $s$:
$10\sqrt{2} = s \sqrt{2} \implies s = 10 \text{ cm}.$
The perimeter $P$ of a square is four times the side length:
$P = 4s = 4 \times 10 = 40 \text{ cm}.$
Thus, the perimeter is $40$ cm.

Key Concept: Area Calculation with Diagonals

c) $44\%$
[Solution Description]
Let the original diagonal be $d$ and the original side length be $s$. Then, $d = s\sqrt{2}$ and the area is $A = s^2 = \left(\frac{d}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^2 = \frac{d^2}{2}$. If the diagonal increases by $20\%$, the new diagonal is $1.2d$. The new area becomes:
$A' = \frac{(1.2d)^2}{2} = \frac{1.44d^2}{2} = 1.44A$
The percentage increase in area is $(1.44 - 1) \times 100\% = 44\%$.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a Square

c) The diagonals are not perpendicular to each other.
[Solution Description]
The properties of the diagonals of a square are: (1) They are equal in length, (2) They bisect each other at $90^{\circ}$, and (3) They bisect the angles of the square. The statement "The diagonals are not perpendicular to each other" is false because, in a square, the diagonals are always perpendicular.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles, Diagonals

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
Let us analyze the assertion and reason step by step:
1. The assertion states that if diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other at $90^\circ$, it must be a square. From the syllabus, we know this is true because the square has diagonals meeting these conditions.
2. The reason states that in a rectangle, diagonals are equal and bisect each other but may not intersect at $90^\circ$. This is also true as only squares (special rectangles) have diagonals intersecting at $90^\circ$, while general rectangles do not satisfy this condition.
3. However, the reason correctly explains why the assertion is true: A quadrilateral with diagonals equal and bisecting at $90^\circ$ must be a square because no other rectangle satisfies this property.
Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason provides the correct explanation for the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of rectangle $ABCD$, $AC$ and $BD$, are equal in length, which is a known property of rectangles. Therefore, the assertion is true.
The reason states that the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other, which is also a known property of rectangles. However, this property does not explain why the diagonals are equal in length—it is an independent property. Thus, the reason is true, but it is not the correct explanation for the assertion.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Squares and Rectangles

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angles and are equal in length, then the quadrilateral must be a square. This is not entirely accurate because a rhombus also has diagonals that bisect each other at right angles, but its diagonals are not necessarily equal in length. However, the reason given is that such a quadrilateral satisfies all properties of a square, which is true only for squares. Therefore, while both statements seem plausible, the assertion overgeneralizes by not considering other quadrilaterals (like rhombuses) that partially satisfy these conditions.
Thus:
- Assertion (A) is false because other quadrilaterals (e.g., rhombus) can have diagonals bisecting at right angles without being squares.
- Reason (R) is true because, for a square, the diagonals do indeed satisfy these properties, but this does not mean the quadrilateral must necessarily be a square.

Key Concept: Congruency of Triangles

c) Rectangle
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral whose diagonals are equal and bisect each other must be a rectangle. While squares also satisfy this condition, the general case is a rectangle because squares have additional properties like all sides being equal and diagonals intersecting at $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rectangle

c) Are equal in length and bisect each other
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length and bisect each other at their midpoints. They do not necessarily intersect at right angles unless the rectangle is a square.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a Rhombus

c) The diagonals bisect each other.
[Solution Description]
Both squares and rhombuses have diagonals that bisect each other. However, while squares also have equal-length diagonals, rhombuses do not necessarily have this property unless they are squares themselves.

Key Concept: Angles between diagonals of a rectangle

a) $50^\circ, 50^\circ, 130^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals bisect each other and form two pairs of equal angles. Given one angle as $x = 50^\circ$, the other angles will be $50^\circ$, $180^\circ - 50^\circ = 130^\circ$, and $130^\circ$ as they must add up to $360^\circ$ in total.

Key Concept: Angles between diagonals of a rhombus

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect the vertex angles and intersect at $90^\circ$ in a standard case. However, given an intersection angle of $60^\circ$, we calculate:
For triangle formed by half-diagonals, let the base angles be $a$.
Then, $a + a + 60^\circ = 180^\circ$ implies $2a = 120^\circ$, so $a = 60^\circ$.
Thus, each interior angle adjacent to the $60^\circ$ angle is $60^\circ + 60^\circ = 120^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angles between diagonals of a rectangle

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, diagonals are equal in length and bisect each other, forming two pairs of isosceles triangles. For any angle $x$ between the diagonals, the base angles of these isosceles triangles can be calculated as $a = 90^\circ - \frac{x}{2}$ and $b = \frac{x}{2}$. The sum of the angles around the point of intersection must satisfy $a + b = 90^\circ$, leading to all four angles being $90^\circ$. However, while the diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisect each other (Reason), this property alone does not necessarily imply that they intersect at $90^\circ$ (Assertion is false). Only in special cases like squares or rhombuses do diagonals intersect at $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Diagonals, Angles in Quadrilaterals

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since $AO = BO = CO = DO$, the triangles $AOB$, $BOC$, $COD$, and $DOA$ are all isosceles. Given that the angle between the diagonals ($\angle AOB$) is $60^\circ$, we can find the base angles of $\triangle AOB$ as follows:
Let the base angles be $a$.
$2a + 60 = 180 \implies 2a = 120 \implies a = 60.$
So, $\angle OAB = \angle OBA = 60^\circ$.
Similarly, in $\triangle BOC$, $\angle BOC = 120^\circ$ (since angles around point $O$ add to $360^\circ$). The base angles ($b$) of $\triangle BOC$ are:
$2b + 120 = 180 \implies 2b = 60 \implies b = 30.$
Thus, $\angle ABC = \angle ABO + \angle OBC = 60^\circ + 30^\circ = 90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Square Construction, Diagonals

c) $90°$
[Solution Description]
In a square, the diagonals are equal in length, bisect each other, and intersect at right angles (90°). Thus, to construct a square with a diagonal of 6 cm, the angle between the diagonals must be 90°.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a rectangle

b) 10 cm
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length. If one diagonal is 10 cm, the other diagonal must also be 10 cm.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Quadrilaterals

d) Square
[Solution Description]
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal in length and bisect each other at $90^\circ$, then the quadrilateral is a square. This is because such properties ensure all angles are $90^\circ$ and all sides are equal.

Key Concept: Construction and reasoning about squares

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion claims that a quadrilateral with equal diagonals bisecting each other at 90° must be a square. The reason states that such conditions ensure all sides are equal and all angles are 90°.
First, consider the properties of a square:
- Diagonals are equal in length.
- Diagonals bisect each other at 90°.
- All sides are equal.
- All angles are 90°.
However, a rhombus also has diagonals that bisect each other at 90° and all sides equal, but its angles are not necessarily 90°. Hence, the assertion is partially correct but not entirely, as the given conditions could also describe a rhombus unless the angles are specified as 90°. The reason correctly explains the properties but fails to distinguish between a square and a rhombus uniquely. Thus, the assertion is false because the conditions alone do not guarantee a square, while the reason is true.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rectangle

d) 8 cm, joined at their midpoints
[Solution Description]
For a quadrilateral to be a rectangle, its diagonals must be equal in length and bisect each other. Given one diagonal is 8 cm, the other must also be 8 cm. The strips should be joined at their midpoints to ensure the diagonals bisect each other.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angles, Side Lengths

b) Opposite sides are equal.
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ is a rectangle, where opposite sides are equal in length. This can be proved by dividing the quadrilateral into two congruent right triangles using a diagonal and applying the properties of congruent triangles. Thus, opposite sides must be equal.

Key Concept: Definition of a Rectangle

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that a quadrilateral with diagonals equal in length and bisecting each other is a rectangle, which aligns with the alternative definition of a rectangle mentioned in the syllabus. The reason correctly states that in a rectangle, the diagonals are equal and bisect each other. Moreover, the reason provides the justification for why such a quadrilateral must be a rectangle, making it the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangle Diagonals

b) At the midpoint of both strips
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other at their midpoints. Therefore, the carpenter should join the strips at their midpoints.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangle

c) The quadrilateral must be a rectangle but not necessarily a square
[Solution Description]
When diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other, it must be a rectangle. However, for rectangles, diagonals should intersect at $90°$ if it's a square, otherwise they form angles not equal to $90°$ unless specified. Here the angle is $60°$, which means it's a rectangle but not necessarily a square.
Step-by-step reasoning:
1) Diagonals being equal and bisecting each other confirms it's a rectangle (Property 4 of rectangles).
2) The angle between diagonals being $60°$ shows it's not a square (where diagonals intersect at $90°$).
3) Thus, the quadrilateral is a rectangle with unequal adjacent sides.

Key Concept: Square Properties

c) They bisect each other at $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Both squares and rectangles have diagonals that are equal in length and bisect each other. However, the diagonals of a square additionally bisect each other at right angles ($90^\circ$), which is not necessarily true for all rectangles.

Key Concept: Square Properties

a) $3\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$
[Solution Description]
For any square, diagonals are equal and bisect each other perpendicularly. Given AB = 6 cm (side length), we find diagonal AC first using Pythagorean theorem:
$AC = \sqrt{AB^2 + BC^2} = \sqrt{6^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{72} = 6\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.
Since diagonals bisect each other, AO = half of AC = $\frac{6\sqrt{2}}{2} = 3\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.
Calculation steps:
1) Calculate diagonal AC using Pythagoras: $AC = \sqrt{6^2 + 6^2} = 6\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.
2) Find AO as half of AC: $AO = 3\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.

Key Concept: Properties of Squares and Rectangles, Geometric Reasoning

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A square has diagonals that bisect each other at $90^\circ$ and are equal in length (Property 4 of squares). Since all sides of a square are equal (Property 1), the four triangles formed by the intersection of diagonals have two sides equal (half the diagonal) and the included angle as $90^\circ$. By SAS congruency, these triangles are congruent. Hence, both Assertion and Reason are true, and the Reason explains why the Assertion is true.

Key Concept: Special Rectangle and Square Properties

c) Opposite sides are equal
[Solution Description]
We need to identify a property that is common to both squares and rectangles.
Property 1: All angles are $90^\circ$. This is true for both squares and rectangles.
Property 2: Opposite sides are equal. This is also true for both.
Property 3: Diagonals bisect each other. This is true for both.
However, only in a square are all sides equal and diagonals perpendicular. So, the correct statement must be one that applies to both but not exclusively to either.
The most general correct statement common to both is that "Opposite sides are equal."

Key Concept: Square and Rectangle Properties

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that if a quadrilateral has all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^{\circ}$, it must be a square. This is true because by definition, a square is a rectangle with all sides equal.
The reason states that every square is a rectangle (since it meets the rectangle's condition of having all angles equal to $90^{\circ}$ and opposite sides parallel and equal), but not every rectangle is a square (as rectangles can have unequal adjacent sides). This correctly explains why the assertion is true. Hence, both statements are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of a Rectangle

c) They are equal in length and bisect each other
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle have two key properties: they are equal in length and bisect each other. This means they divide each other into two equal parts at the point of intersection.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles and Squares

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that every square is a rectangle. This is true because a square satisfies all the properties of a rectangle: all angles are $90^\circ$, opposite sides are equal and parallel, and diagonals bisect each other.
The reason given is that in a square, all angles are $90^\circ$ and opposite sides are equal and parallel. This is also true as it aligns with the properties of both squares and rectangles. However, while the reason correctly describes properties of a square, it does not explicitly link these properties to why a square is a rectangle. The key observation from the syllabus mentions this relationship directly ("Every square is a rectangle"), but the reason does not provide an explanation for the assertion; it merely lists properties. Hence, both the assertion and reason are true, but the reason is NOT the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angle Sum, Algebraic Equation

c) $76^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Let angle B be $x$. Then:
- Angle A = $2x$,
- Angle C = $x + 20^\circ$,
- Angle D = $x - 40^\circ$.
The sum of all angles is $360^\circ$, so:
$2x + x + (x + 20^\circ) + (x - 40^\circ) = 360^\circ$.
Combine like terms: $5x - 20^\circ = 360^\circ$.
Add $20^\circ$ to both sides: $5x = 380^\circ$.
Divide by 5: $x = 76^\circ$.
Therefore, angle B is $76^\circ$.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a quadrilateral

b) Opposite sides are equal
[Solution Description]
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the opposite sides of the quadrilateral are equal in length. This property is characteristic of parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses, and squares.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angles

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral can indeed be divided into two triangles by drawing one diagonal. The sum of angles in each triangle is $180^\circ$, so the total sum of angles for both triangles is $360^\circ$. Since the angles of the triangles collectively form the angles of the quadrilateral, the sum of the quadrilateral's angles must also be $360^\circ$. Thus, both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, and R correctly explains why A is true.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

c) 360$^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all interior angles of any quadrilateral is always $360^\circ$, as per the angle sum property of quadrilaterals.

Key Concept: Impossible quadrilateral configuration

c) 120°, 110°, 100°, 20°
[Solution Description]
For a valid quadrilateral, the sum of all four angles must be $360°$.
Checking each option:
Option a) $90° + 90° + 90° + 90° = 360°$ (valid).
Option b) $100° + 80° + 70° + 110° = 360°$ (valid).
Option c) $120° + 110° + 100° + 20° = 350° \neq 360°$ (invalid).
Option d) $95° + 85° + 90° + 90° = 360°$ (valid).
Thus, option c does not satisfy the sum condition.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the sum of angles in any quadrilateral is 360°, which is true based on the syllabus. The reason explains that when a quadrilateral is split into two triangles via a diagonal, the sum of angles in each triangle is 180°, leading to a total of 360° for the quadrilateral. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are correct, and the reason justifies the assertion.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral, properties of diagonals

c) 110°
[Solution Description]
Step 1: The sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is 360°.
Step 2: Given angles A, B, and C are 80°, 100°, and 70° respectively.
Step 3: Calculate the sum of known angles: $80° + 100° + 70° = 250°$.
Step 4: Subtract the sum from 360° to find angle D: $360° - 250° = 110°$.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral, diagonals creating triangles

b) 40°
[Solution Description]
Step 1: In triangle EFG, angles are 50°, 60°, and 70° (sum = 180°).
Step 2: Diagonal EG divides the quadrilateral into two triangles, EFG and EHG.
Step 3: Given one angle of triangle EHG is 40°. Let the other two angles be x and y ⇒ $40° + x + y = 180°$ ⇒ $x + y = 140°$.
Step 4: The quadrilateral's angles are the combination of both triangles' angles: 50°, 60°, 70°, 40°, x, y.
But since the quadrilateral has only four angles, they must be 50°, 60°, 70°, and 40° (the unique angles from both triangles). However, this leads to a sum of $50° + 60° + 70° + 40° = 220° ≠ 360°$, which is incorrect.
Upon reevaluating, the quadrilateral's angles are formed by combining adjacent angles from the two triangles. For example, $∠FEG + ∠HEG$ forms angle E, and similarly for others. Therefore, the quadrilateral's angles are:
$∠E = ∠FEG + ∠HEG$, $∠F = ∠EFG$, $∠G = ∠EGF + ∠EGH$, $∠H = ∠EHG$.
Given $∠F = 60°$ (from triangle EFG), $∠H = 40°$ (given in EHG), $∠FEG = 50°$, $∠EGF = 70°$, and let $∠HEG = z$, $∠EGH = w$.
Since $∠FEG + ∠HEG = ∠E ⇒ 50° + z = ∠E$.
And $∠EGF + ∠EGH = ∠G ⇒ 70° + w = ∠G$.
Also, in triangle EHG: $40° + z + w = 180° ⇒ z + w = 140°$.
Now, sum of quadrilateral angles: $∠E + ∠F + ∠G + ∠H = 360° ⇒ (50° + z) + 60° + (70° + w) + 40° = 360° ⇒ 220° + z + w = 360° ⇒ z + w = 140°$.
This confirms consistency but doesn't provide new information. To find the smallest angle, note that the quadrilateral's angles include $∠F = 60°$, $∠H = 40°$, and $∠E$ and $∠G$ are combinations of angles greater than or equal to their components. Thus, the smallest angle is $∠H = 40°$.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral angles, diagonal properties

c) The fourth angle must be $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Let's analyze the given quadrilateral PQRS with three right angles (let's say $\angle P = \angle Q = \angle R = 90^\circ$) and diagonals intersecting at O forming angle POQ = $60^\circ$.
Since sum of angles in any quadrilateral is $360^\circ$, we have:
$\angle P + \angle Q + \angle R + \angle S = 360^\circ$
Substituting known values:
$90^\circ + 90^\circ + 90^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
$270^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
Therefore, $\angle S = 90^\circ$.
The information about diagonal intersection angle doesn't affect the angle sum property. Hence, the fourth angle must also be $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

c) $360^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all angles in any quadrilateral is always $360^\circ$. This can be derived by dividing the quadrilateral into two triangles and adding their angle sums ($180^\circ + 180^\circ = 360^\circ$).

Key Concept: Properties of quadrilaterals with three right angles

b) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since the sum of angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$, if three angles are $90^\circ$ each, the fourth angle must be $360^\circ - (3 \times 90^\circ) = 90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angle Sum Property

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
We know from the properties of quadrilaterals that the sum of all four interior angles is always $360^\circ$.
If three angles are each $90^\circ$, their sum is $3 \times 90^\circ = 270^\circ$. If the fourth angle were not $90^\circ$, say $x$, then the total sum would be $270^\circ + x$. For this to equal $360^\circ$, $x$ must satisfy:
$270^\circ + x = 360^\circ$
$x = 360^\circ - 270^\circ$
$x = 90^\circ$
This means the fourth angle must also be $90^\circ$ to satisfy the angle sum property. Hence, it is impossible for a quadrilateral to have three right angles and a non-right fourth angle.
The assertion claims it is possible, which is false, but the reason correctly states the angle sum property of quadrilaterals.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rhombus

c) $10$ cm
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at $90^\circ$. So, half-diagonals are $6$ cm and $8$ cm. Using the Pythagorean theorem:
Side length = $\sqrt{6^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{36 + 64} = \sqrt{100} = 10$ cm.

Key Concept: Adjacent Angles in Parallelogram

b) $130^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary, meaning they add up to $180^\circ$. If one angle is $50^\circ$, the adjacent angle will be $180^\circ - 50^\circ = 130^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of Parallelograms and Rhombus

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at $90^\circ$, which is a known property of a rhombus. The reason states that a rhombus is a special type of parallelogram with all sides equal, which is also true. However, the reason does not directly explain why the diagonals bisect at $90^\circ$; it merely defines a rhombus. Therefore, both statements are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Parallelograms, Supplementary Angles

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description] In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary, which means they add up to $180^\circ$. Given $\angle A = 60^\circ$, we can find $\angle B$ using the property:
$\angle A + \angle B = 180^\circ \implies 60^\circ + \angle B = 180^\circ \implies \angle B = 120^\circ$

Key Concept: Adjacent Angles in Parallelogram

b) $92^{\circ}$
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary, meaning they add up to $180^{\circ}$. Therefore, $\angle A + \angle D = 180^{\circ}$.
Given:
$\angle A = (3x + 10)^{\circ}$
$\angle D = (2x + 40)^{\circ}$
Set up the equation:
$(3x + 10) + (2x + 40) = 180$
Combine like terms:
$5x + 50 = 180$
Subtract $50$ from both sides:
$5x = 130$
Divide by $5$ on both sides:
$x = 26$
Now find $\angle A$:
$\angle A = 3(26) + 10 = 88^{\circ}$
In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal, so $\angle B = \angle D$.
Thus, $\angle B = 2(26) + 40 = 92^{\circ}$
The measure of $\angle B$ is $92^{\circ}$.

Key Concept: Adjacent Angles in Parallelogram

c) $120°$
[Solution Description]
Property 3 of parallelograms states that adjacent angles add up to $180°$. So, if one angle is $60°$, the adjacent angle will be $180° - 60° = 120°$.

Key Concept: Opposite sides and diagonals of parallelogram

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
Let us verify the assertion using the properties of parallelograms. Consider a parallelogram with adjacent sides $a$ and $b$. Let $d_1$ and $d_2$ be its diagonals. By the property of parallelograms, the diagonals bisect each other. Using the law of cosines in one of the triangles formed by the diagonals, we get:
For triangle formed by half-diagonals and side $a$:
$\left(\frac{d_1}{2}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{d_2}{2}\right)^2 - 2 \cdot \frac{d_1}{2} \cdot \frac{d_2}{2} \cos(\theta) = a^2$
Similarly for side $b$:
$\left(\frac{d_1}{2}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{d_2}{2}\right)^2 - 2 \cdot \frac{d_1}{2} \cdot \frac{d_2}{2} \cos(180^\circ - \theta) = b^2$
Adding these two equations and simplifying:
$2\left(\frac{d_1^2}{4} + \frac{d_2^2}{4}\right) + \frac{d_1 d_2 \cos(\theta)}{2} - \frac{d_1 d_2 \cos(\theta)}{2} = a^2 + b^2$
Which simplifies to:
$\frac{d_1^2 + d_2^2}{2} = a^2 + b^2 \implies d_1^2 + d_2^2 = 2(a^2 + b^2)$
Thus, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains Assertion.

Key Concept: Definition of Parallelogram

c) A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel
[Solution Description]
A parallelogram is defined as a quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel.

Key Concept: Rectangles as a type of parallelogram

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ and opposite sides parallel and equal, which satisfies the definition of a parallelogram. The reason correctly states that a rectangle has opposite sides parallel and equal. Since both statements are true, and the Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true, the correct answer is option a).

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles

c) All angles are equal to $90^{\circ}$ and diagonals are equal.
[Solution Description]
A rectangle is a parallelogram with all angles equal to $90^{\circ}$. It satisfies all properties of a parallelogram, and additionally, its diagonals are equal in length.

Key Concept: Special Cases of Parallelograms

d) Square
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^\circ$ is called a square. This is because a square is a special type of rectangle where all sides are equal.

Key Concept: Rectangles as a type of parallelogram, Diagonals in rectangles and parallelograms

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a rectangle are perpendicular to each other. However, this is not a property of rectangles. The correct property is that the diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length and bisect each other but are not necessarily perpendicular. They are perpendicular only in the case of a square, which is a special type of rectangle. Therefore, the Assertion is false. The reason states that the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other at $90^{\circ}$, which is also false because while they do bisect each other, it is not necessary that they do so at $90^{\circ}$. Hence, both the Assertion and Reason are false. Thus, none of the given options is correct, but among the provided options, option d) best matches since the Reason is partially true (diagonals bisect each other, though not always at $90^{\circ}$). Note: There might be an issue with the question design as all options involve truth values that don't perfectly match.

Key Concept: Venn Diagram of Quadrilaterals

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that a square is both a rhombus and a rectangle because it meets the criteria of all three types of quadrilaterals. This is true since a square has all sides equal (rhombus property), all angles equal to $90^\circ$ (rectangle property), and opposite sides parallel (parallelogram property). The Reason explains that in a Venn diagram, squares lie in the intersection of rhombuses and rectangles, which correctly represents their hierarchical relationship. Since a square inherits properties from both rhombuses and rectangles, the Venn diagram must show this overlap, making the Reason the correct explanation of the Assertion.

Key Concept: Venn Diagram Relationships

d) Square
[Solution Description]
A square has all the properties of both a rectangle and a rhombus. It has all angles equal to $90^\circ$ (like a rectangle) and all sides equal (like a rhombus). Therefore, the correct answer is Square.

Key Concept: Angle Properties in Rhombus

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary (add up to $180^\circ$). Given $\angle A = 60^\circ$, we can find $\angle B$ using the property:
$\angle A + \angle B = 180^\circ$
$60^\circ + \angle B = 180^\circ$
$\angle B = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$.
The opposite angles in a rhombus are equal, so $\angle D = \angle B = 120^\circ$.

Key Concept: Special Cases of Parallelograms

c) All its angles are $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
A rectangle is a special parallelogram where all angles are $90^\circ$. While it has all properties of a parallelogram, the defining feature is its right angles. Thus, the correct answer is "All its angles are $90^\circ$."

Key Concept: Properties of a Rhombus

a) All sides are equal
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has all sides equal, opposite sides parallel, adjacent angles summing to $180^\circ$, and diagonals that bisect each other. From Property 1, we know all sides are equal.

Key Concept: Quadrilaterals with Equal Side Lengths, Properties of Rhombus and Square

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
To analyze this assertion-reason pair, let's examine the properties of quadrilaterals with equal side lengths:
1. Assertion states that a quadrilateral with all sides equal must be a square. However, from the syllabus, we know that a rhombus also has all sides equal but does not necessarily have all angles as 90\textdegree. Hence, the assertion is false because there are other quadrilaterals (like rhombuses) with equal side lengths that are not squares.
2. Reason states that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at 90\textdegree. This is true as per Property 4 of a rhombus mentioned in the syllabus.
3. Since the assertion is false and the reason is true, the correct answer corresponds to option d).

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that every rhombus is a square, which is false because a rhombus only requires all sides to be equal but does not require all angles to be $90^\circ$. The Reason correctly describes a square as having all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^\circ$, which is true but does not explain the Assertion since the Assertion is incorrect.
Therefore, the Assertion is false, but the Reason is true.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus and Square

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that every square is a rhombus, which is true because a square has all sides equal, satisfying the definition of a rhombus. The Reason states that a rhombus with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ is a square, which is also true as this defines a square. Moreover, the Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true, since it describes the condition under which a rhombus becomes a square.

Key Concept: Rhombus Properties

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that all sides of a rhombus are equal, which is true because one of the defining properties of a rhombus is that all its sides have the same length. The reason correctly explains this property by stating that a quadrilateral with all sides equal is defined as a rhombus. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rhombus, Right Triangles

b) 40 cm
[Solution Description]
All sides of a rhombus are equal, so the perimeter is simply 4 times the side length. Given the side length is 10 cm:
$\text{Perimeter} = 4 \times 10\,\text{cm} = 40\,\text{cm}$
Note that the information about the diagonal is irrelevant for calculating the perimeter.

Key Concept: Basic Properties of a Rhombus

c) Opposite sides are parallel
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has all sides equal, opposite sides parallel, adjacent angles supplementary, and diagonals bisecting each other at right angles. Among the given options, only one correctly states a property that applies to all rhombuses.
Checking each option:
1) "All angles are 90 degrees" is incorrect because a rhombus does not necessarily have all angles as 90 degrees (that would make it a square).
2) "Diagonals are equal in length" is incorrect because diagonals of a rhombus are generally not equal unless it is a square.
3) "Opposite sides are parallel" is correct as this is a fundamental property of all rhombuses.
4) "Only two sides are equal" is incorrect because all four sides must be equal in a rhombus.
Thus, the correct answer is option c).

Key Concept: Relationship with Other Quadrilaterals

d) A quadrilateral with all sides equal
[Solution Description]
We need to identify the quadrilateral that is always a rhombus but not necessarily a rectangle. Let's evaluate the options:
1) "Square" is incorrect because a square is both a rhombus and a rectangle.
2) "Parallelogram" is incorrect because not all parallelograms have all sides equal (only rhombuses do).
3) "Rectangle" is incorrect because a rectangle does not necessarily have all sides equal unless it is a square.
4) "A quadrilateral with all sides equal" is correct because it defines a rhombus, which may or may not be a rectangle (unless it is a square).
The correct answer is option d).

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rhombus

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Property 4 states that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles ($90^\circ$). Therefore, the angle between the diagonals is $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angle properties, External points

c) 60$^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since $XWZB$ is a straight line, $\angle BXW = 180^\circ$. Triangle $AXB$ is equilateral (since $XA = XB$ and $\angle AXB = 60^\circ$). In rhombus $XYZW$, adjacent angles add up to $180^\circ$ and opposite angles are equal. Let $\angle YXW = y$. Then $\angle WXZ = 180^\circ - y$. Also, $\angle AXW = 60^\circ + y$ (exterior angle). But $\angle AXW$ must equal $\angle BXW - \angle BXA = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$. Thus $60^\circ + y = 120^\circ$ → $y = 60^\circ$.

Key Concept: Opposite angles, Diagonal properties

b) 60
[Solution Description]
In a rhombus, diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$ and also bisect the angles. So $\angle QPR = 2 \times \angle QPO = 60^\circ$. Since all sides are equal, triangle $PQR$ is isosceles with $PQ = QR$. Therefore, $\angle PQR = 180^\circ - 2(30^\circ) = 120^\circ$. The diagonals intersect at right angles, so in triangle $ROQ$, $\angle ROQ = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 30^\circ = 60^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at $90^\circ$, which is Property 4 from the syllabus, so it is true. The reason states that a rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides equal in length, which is the definition of a rhombus (Property 1), so it is also true. However, the property of diagonals bisecting at $90^\circ$ does not depend on all sides being equal but is a fundamental geometric property, so the Reason does not explain the Assertion. Thus, both are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.

Key Concept: Folding Paper to Form Quadrilaterals

d) Kite
[Solution Description]
Folding the sheet into half creates a straight line (crease). Folding it again into a quarter creates another perpendicular straight line. Making a triangular crease at the middle corner introduces diagonal folds. When these creases are opened, they form intersecting lines within the paper. Specifically:
- Two main creases from folding into quarters (vertical and horizontal).
- Diagonal creases from the triangular fold.
The resulting pattern forms a kite shape due to the intersection of the diagonal folds with the main creases, creating two pairs of adjacent sides of unequal length meeting at the central point.

Key Concept: Construction of Parallelograms

b) At the midpoints of both strips
[Solution Description]
To form a parallelogram, the strips must be joined at their midpoints. The lengths of the strips determine the sides of the parallelogram, but the key property is that opposite sides must be parallel and equal in length, which is ensured when the strips intersect at their midpoints.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals

d) Square
[Solution Description]
When the diagonals of a quadrilateral are perpendicular and equal in length, the quadrilateral must be a square. In a square, the diagonals bisect each other at $90^{\circ}$ and are equal in length.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals, Constructing Quadrilaterals

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that in a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides, the diagonals bisect each other. This is true because such a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, and one of the properties of a parallelogram is that its diagonals bisect each other. The reason correctly identifies the quadrilateral as a parallelogram and states the property of diagonals bisecting each other, which explains the assertion. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Joining Triangles to Form Quadrilaterals

c) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
When two equilateral triangles are joined along one side, the resulting figure will have four sides. Each angle of an equilateral triangle is $60^\circ$. When two such triangles are joined, the adjacent angles add up to $120^\circ$. The opposite angles will also be $120^\circ$ each, making the quadrilateral a rhombus but not a square, as the angles are not $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals

c) Square
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal in length and bisect each other at 90\textdegree. This property is satisfied by a square, where all sides and angles are equal.

Key Concept: Geoboard Activity: Properties of Quadrilaterals

c) Square
[Solution Description]
When two diagonals are equal in length and perpendicular to each other, joining their endpoints forms a square. This is because all sides become equal due to the properties of symmetry and the right angles between the sides.

Key Concept: Properties of Diagonals in Quadrilaterals

c) Square
[Solution Description]
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal in length, bisect each other, and intersect at $90^\circ$, the quadrilateral must be a square. This is because these conditions ensure all sides are equal and all angles are $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Trapezium Angles

d) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In an isosceles trapezium, the base angles on the same side are supplementary ($\angle U + \angle W = 180^\circ$). Given $\angle U = 70^\circ$, we can find $\angle W$ as follows:
$\angle W = 180^\circ - \angle U = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$

Key Concept: Kite Properties

b) Kite
[Solution Description]
When two isosceles triangles with sides 8 cm, 8 cm, and 6 cm are joined along their unequal sides (6 cm), the resulting quadrilateral has adjacent sides equal (8 cm each). This satisfies the definition of a kite, where two pairs of adjacent sides are equal. Thus, the quadrilateral formed is a kite.

Key Concept: Joining Triangles, Kite Properties

d) All of the above
[Solution Description]
When two equilateral triangles of side 8 cm are joined along one common side, the resulting quadrilateral is a rhombus. A rhombus has all sides equal and opposite angles equal. The diagonals bisect each other at 90 degrees and also bisect the vertex angles. Hence, all the given properties apply.

Key Concept: Construction of quadrilaterals using triangles

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
When two equilateral triangles are joined along a common side, the resulting quadrilateral will have all four sides equal because each side of the quadrilateral is either a side of the original equilateral triangle or the newly formed side from joining. Since an equilateral triangle has all three sides equal, this property ensures that all sides of the quadrilateral are equal. Moreover, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral will be equal due to the symmetry of the equilateral triangles. Therefore, the quadrilateral formed is a rhombus as it satisfies the conditions mentioned in the Reason. Thus, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains the Assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of a Kite

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A kite is defined as a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides equal. One of its properties is that the diagonals intersect at right angles (perpendicular). Therefore, both the Assertion and Reason are true, and the Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true.

Key Concept: Isosceles Trapezium

d) Both $\angle U = \angle V$ and $\angle W = \angle X$
[Solution Description]
An isosceles trapezium has equal non-parallel sides and equal base angles. Therefore, angles opposite to the equal sides are equal.

Key Concept: Kite and Trapezium combined, Angle calculation

c) 120$^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The quadrilateral described is a combination of kite and trapezium properties. As it has two pairs of adjacent sides equal, it must be a kite. But it also has one pair of parallel sides, making it a trapezium. Hence, it is an isosceles trapezium where non-parallel sides are equal. Given one angle as $120^\circ$, the adjacent angle on the same side of the transversal will be $60^\circ$ (since they add up to $180^\circ$). The opposite angles in an isosceles trapezium are supplementary, so the largest angle will be $120^\circ$.

Key Concept: Kite and Trapezium

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
In a kite $ABCD$, by definition, $AB = BC$ and $CD = DA$. The diagonal $BD$ divides the kite into two congruent triangles $\triangle ABD$ and $\triangle CBD$ by SSS congruence because $AB = CB$, $AD = CD$, and $BD$ is common. Since these triangles are congruent, $\angle ABD = \angle CBD$ and $\angle ADB = \angle CDB$, which means $BD$ bisects $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$. However, the Reason states that $\triangle AOB$ and $\triangle COB$ are congruent by SSS, but it does not directly explain why $BD$ bisects the angles. Instead, $\triangle AOB$ and $\triangle COB$ are congruent by SAS (since $AB = CB$, $\angle ABO = \angle CBO$, and $BO$ is common), which shows that $AO = OC$ and that $BD$ is perpendicular to $AC$.
Hence, while both Assertion and Reason are true, the Reason does not correctly explain the Assertion since it incorrectly uses SSS instead of SAS.

Key Concept: Classification of Quadrilaterals

a) Every rhombus is a kite, but not every kite is a rhombus.
[Solution Description]
A rhombus is a special case of a kite where all four sides are equal. However, not every kite is a rhombus because a kite only requires two distinct pairs of adjacent sides to be equal.

Key Concept: Kite Properties

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
In a kite ABCD, where AB = BC and CD = DA, the diagonal BD divides the kite into two congruent triangles $\Delta ABD$ and $\Delta CBD$ by SSS congruency (since AB = BC, AD = DC, and BD is common). This congruence implies that $\angle ABD = \angle CBD$ and $\angle ADB = \angle CDB$, meaning BD bisects both $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$. Additionally, since $\Delta AOB$ and $\Delta COB$ are congruent (by SAS congruency as AB = CB, $\angle ABO = \angle CBO$, and BO is common), AO = OC, proving BD bisects AC. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains Assertion.

Key Concept: Relationship Between Kite and Rhombus

b) Every rhombus is a kite
[Solution Description]
A rhombus is a special type of kite where all four sides are equal. However, not every kite is a rhombus because kites only need two distinct pairs of adjacent sides to be equal.

Key Concept: Kite Properties

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a kite bisect each other at right angles. According to the properties of a kite, one diagonal bisects the other and is perpendicular to it, but only one diagonal gets bisected (not both). Hence, the assertion is false.
The reason states that a kite has two pairs of adjacent sides equal, which is true as per the definition of a kite. Therefore, the assertion is false, but the reason is true.

Key Concept: Kite: Diagonal Properties

b) Only one diagonal bisects the other and they are perpendicular.
[Solution Description]
In a kite, one diagonal bisects the other. Specifically, the diagonal connecting the vertices where the adjacent sides are equal (e.g., $BD$) bisects the other diagonal ($AC$) perpendicularly. Thus, $AO = OC$ and $BD \perp AC$.

Key Concept: Trapezium: Angle Calculation

b) $\angle B = 75^\circ$, $\angle C = 105^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since $AB \parallel CD$ and $AD$ is the transversal, the sum of the angles on the same side of the transversal is $180^\circ$. Therefore, $\angle A + \angle D = 105^\circ + 75^\circ = 180^\circ$ which is correct. Now, the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. So, $\angle B + \angle C = 360^\circ - (\angle A + \angle D) = 360^\circ - 180^\circ = 180^\circ$. Also, since $AB \parallel CD$ and $BC$ is the transversal, $\angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ$. Hence, both $\angle B$ and $\angle C$ must be supplementary but not necessarily equal unless it's an isosceles trapezium.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

c) $20^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Let the fourth angle be $x$. Then:
$105^\circ + 135^\circ + 100^\circ + x = 360^\circ$
Simplifying:
$105 + 135 = 240^\circ$
$240 + 100 = 340^\circ$
$x = 360^\circ - 340^\circ = 20^\circ$
So, the fourth angle is $20^\circ$.

Key Concept: Trapezium, Isosceles Trapezium, Angle Properties

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
Given an isosceles trapezium $UVWX$ with $UV \parallel XW$ and $UX = VW$.
Step 1: According to the property of a trapezium, since $UV \parallel XW$, the consecutive angles on the same side of the legs are supplementary. Therefore, $\angle U + \angle W = 180^\circ$ and $\angle V + \angle X = 180^\circ$. This makes the Assertion (A) true.
Step 2: For an isosceles trapezium, the non-parallel sides are equal by definition, i.e., $UX = VW$. This makes the Reason (R) true.
Step 3: However, the Reason (R) states a defining property of an isosceles trapezium but does not explain why $\angle U$ and $\angle W$ are supplementary. The supplementary nature of these angles arises from the parallel sides and the properties of a trapezium, not directly from the equality of the non-parallel sides.
Conclusion: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation for Assertion (A).

Key Concept: Kite Diagonal Properties, Trapezium Angle Relationships

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
For assertion (A), in a kite, one diagonal (main diagonal) is known to be perpendicular to the other and bisects it. This property makes $\angle AOB = 90^\circ$ true because diagonals of a kite are perpendicular by definition. Therefore, Assertion (A) is true.
For reason (R), the diagonals of a trapezium do not necessarily bisect each other unless it is an isosceles trapezium. Even in an isosceles trapezium, diagonals are equal but they only bisect each other if additional conditions are met. Hence, Reason (R) is false.
Thus, Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.

Key Concept: Properties of Kite: Diagonals

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
According to the property of a kite, one of the diagonals (the one connecting the vertices with equal adjacent sides) bisects the other diagonal at $90^\circ$ and also bisects the angles at those vertices. However, the diagonals of a kite do not necessarily bisect each other completely; only one diagonal is bisected by the other. Therefore, the Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

Key Concept: Diagonals of an Isosceles Trapezium

d) Diagonals are equal in length
[Solution Description]
One of the key properties of an isosceles trapezium is that its diagonals are equal in length. Therefore, $UW = VX$.

Key Concept: Angle Relationships in Trapezium

b) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
A property of a trapezium states that the sum of adjacent angles on the same side of the non-parallel sides is $180^\circ$. Thus, $\angle P + \angle S = 180^\circ$. Given $\angle P = 70^\circ$, we can calculate $\angle S$ as follows:
$\angle S = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$
