*8
Diagram NOT accurately drawn
\(ABC\) is parallel to \(EFGH\).
\(GB = GF\)
Angle \(ABF = 65^\circ\)
Work out the size of the angle marked \(x\).
Give reasons for your answer. (4)
| Answer | Mark | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| \(x = 130\) + correct reasons | 4 | M1 for angle \(BFG = 65\) may be seen on diagram M1 (dep) for correct method to calculate \(x\), eg \((x =)\ 65 + 65\) (=130) or \((x =)\ 180 - (180 - 2 \times 65)\) (=130) C2 for \(x = 130\) and full appropriate reasons related to method shown (C1 (dep on M1) for any one appropriate reason related to method shown) eg alternate angles; base angles in an isosceles triangle are equal; angles in a triangle add up to \(180^\circ\); angles on a straight line add up to \(180^\circ\); exterior angle of triangle = sum of two interior opposite angles; co-interior angles add up to \(180^\circ\) (allied angles) NB Any reasons stated must be used |
