Question

If two interior angles on the same side of a transversal intersecting two parallel lines are in the ratio 2:3, then the greater of the two angles is:

A.

120120^∘

B.

136136^∘

C.

108108^∘

D.

5454^∘

Correct option is C

Given : 

Two interior angles on the same side of a transversal intersecting two parallel lines ratio = 2 : 3 

Concept Used:

Two interior angle made by transversal line on parallel line are supplementary.
Solution : 

Let the two angles be 2x and 3x 

Then, 

2x + 3x = 180180^\circ
5x =  180180^\circ
x =  3636^\circ
The angles are:
2x =  2×362\times36​ =  7272^\circ
3x =  3×363\times36​ =  108108^\circ
Thus, the greater of the two angles is  108108^\circ
