# In the figure, find the values of $x$ and $y$ and then show that $AB\parallel CD$.

##### SOLUTION
$x + 50^{\circ} = 180^{\circ}$ (Linear pair)

$\Rightarrow x = 130^{\circ}$

Also, $y = 130^{\circ}$ (Vertically opposite)

Now, $x = y = 130^{\circ}$ (Alternate interior angles)

Alternate interior angles are equal.

$\therefore AB \parallel CD.$

Q5 Subjective Medium
Read the following two statements which are taken as axioms:
(i) If two lines intersect each other, then the vertically opposite angles are not equal.
(ii) If a ray stands on a line, then the sum of two adjacent angles so formed is equal to $180^0$.
Is this system of axioms consistent? Justify your answer.
