5.1.1 Calculate the size of B^\hat{B} with reasons.

StatementReason
In ADC\triangle ADC:
ADC=90\angle ADC = 90^\circGiven (AD \perp BC)
CAD=1809050\angle CAD = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 50^\circSum of angles in a triangle
CAD=40\angle CAD = 40^\circ
In ABD\triangle ABD:
ADB=90\angle ADB = 90^\circGiven (AD \perp BC)
B=1809060\angle B = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 60^\circSum of angles in a triangle
B=30\angle B = \boxed{\text{30}^\circ}

5.1.2 Classify ABD\triangle ABD. ABD\triangle ABD is a right-angled triangle.

5.2.1 Identify whether the two triangles are congruent or similar. To check for similarity, we compare the ratios of corresponding sides: DEAC=105=2\frac{DE}{AC} = \frac{10}{5} = 2 DFAB=147=2\frac{DF}{AB} = \frac{14}{7} = 2 EFBC=189=2\frac{EF}{BC} = \frac{18}{9} = 2 Since the ratios of all corresponding sides are equal, the triangles are similar.

5.2.2 Describe the properties that make them congruent or similar. The properties that make them similar are:

  • Their corresponding angles are equal.
  • Their corresponding sides are in proportion.

5.3 ABCD is a rhombus. Determine, with reasons, the size of:

  • Angle 1 (AOB\angle AOB) Step 1: Identify the property of diagonals in a rhombus. The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles. Step 2: State the angle. AOB=90\angle AOB = \boxed{\text{90}^\circ} Reason: Diagonals of a rhombus intersect at right angles.

  • Angle 2 (ADO\angle ADO) Step 1: Use the properties of a rhombus and sum of angles in a triangle. In AOD\triangle AOD: DAO=22\angle DAO = 22^\circ (Given) AOD=90\angle AOD = 90^\circ (Diagonals of a rhombus intersect at right angles) Step 2: Calculate ADO\angle ADO. ADO=180DAOAOD\angle ADO = 180^\circ - \angle DAO - \angle AOD (Sum of angles in a triangle) ADO=1802290\angle ADO = 180^\circ - 22^\circ - 90^\circ ADO=68\angle ADO = \boxed{\text{68}^\circ} Reason: Sum of angles in a triangle.
