    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
